I want to use a memory candle for my FH mother, but I am not sure when to use it. We are getting married in church and I was wondering do you use it instead of the unity candle? Or do I incorporate it into the ceremony and how?
Im getting married at the RH and doing it during the ceremony.
a memory candle is used during the ceremony and usually lit before or in the very beginning of the ceremony. i'm using one and also having it lit on a table during the reception as well.
You don't always have to use it...Instead you can mention it in your program and then have it placed in a special location so guests know why it is there...We did that with a bouquet of flowers in a vase. It was a nice touch
We are getting married in a church too and priest told us it is lit and placed on the altar. Then we can bring to reception as well. (I got mine for FH mother)
