I already have a favor for the wedding but I got a great idea from everyone's comments. We are going to make a donation to the American Cancer Society in remembrance of our fathers who both died of this terrible disease. We were advised against flowers in the church by our priest since we are getting married during Lentand they would dispose of them immediately after the ceremony since it is a more subdued time in the Catholic year. If we do a program, I will make a one line note in there that in lieu of flowers we have made a donation in our fathers memories.
That's a great suggestion. The question came up today in a conference call re: what name I'm going with after the wedding.

Donation idea
Elizabeth,
That's a wonderful idea!! Originally, I had been thinking of doing that very same thing, a donation to the American Cancer Society in honor of those we have known who have battled cancer.
