Do you plan on naming people close to you that have died?
During the part of the wedding ceremony - General Intentions/Prayer of the Faithful - when you ask to bless the president, pope, etc...and 'remember those who are no longer with us' - do you plan on naming deceased family and friends or just keeping it general?
Also, if we're thinking of naming people, how many is too many?? I think we'll have about 10 or so.

I was actually thinking of that today, as one of my aunts is in hospice out in Melville and my other aunt died on X-mass of this year.....i was thinking of giving my uncles a rose or something in remembrance of my aunts during the ceremony?

During my wedding ceremony I did acknowledge our grandparents that past away. I also put a dedication to them on my program.

We originally were going to name them, but FHs best friend passed last year and we think it will upset MANY people that will be there so we have changed our minds to just mention those that couldnt be with us

We are just going to have a memorial candle burning at the reception with pictures of all those who passed away.

I think we will mention FH's grandfather who recently passed, especially since we're both upset he wont be able to be there to share our day.

My brother is doing the prayer of the faithful and I'm going to provide a list of the names of our grandparents who have passed on.

We are not having a church ceremony with any prayers, but our officiant will mention that there are loved ones we wish could be with us that have passed on. There are just too many (unfortunately) to name.

We plan on doing it specific for those close to us (grandparents, my uncle, FH's good friend) and general (the military, FDNY). We're also adding the names in the program.

It's really just my relatives and yes I plan on naming them. It will be my grandparents, my uncle and maybe my friend. I am not going to name all of my parent's Aunts and Uncles, then it will get too crazy. But yes, I plan on naming those 4 or 5 people.

We don't plan on recognizing anyone during the ceremony because we thought it would be too depressing. We'll probably have a candle for them somewhere in the reception room.

We are going to specifically name them. It is very important to us that they are acknowledged that day...it will help us feel like they are there!

I am having a memory candle with a poem and my family member's names on it and the same poem and names will be in the programs. I think that, if the preist allows it, we'll have their names read.

Absolutely! We are having the names (FH's mom and our grandparents) read during the Prayers of the Faithful. We are also having the priest offer up the Mass (during the consecration) to FH's mother. We are also listing everyone's name in the back of the program. We are also mentioning that the flowers left at Mary's altar are in memory of FH's mom....

We only specifically named my Dad and the Grandparents. Then we added, and all other family and friends.
