Re: Incorporating a lost loved one
Both of hubby's parents passed away ... We had lace trimmed memorial candles with their names on them prominantly displayed and discussed during our mass. They were also lit and on display during our reception in the main ballroom so they were with us.
We also incorporated a piece of his mother's wedding dress into my garter, a button, in the center of one of the rosebuds. It was beautiful. A piece of my mother's dress was also included even though thankfully she is still with us.
For future hubby he wore a small framed picture of them with a blue ribbon over his heard on the inside of his jacket. The ribbon was actually the same that was pinned on him when he was born!
And of course they were written about in the programs!
