Really Need some help

I just recently lost my brother, and want to incorporate him in the wedding somehow since he was such a big part. Just wondering if anyone has incorporated a deceased love one into their wedding? And if so what did they do? I would love the help. Thanks

I'm sorry for your loss.

At our wedding. The revs mentioned that we would like to take a moment and acknowledge his dad before we began our ceremony, by lighting a candle that stayed lit through the ceremony.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I lost my brother as well. We are going to have a memorial candle lit during the ceremony then brought back to the reception where it will remain lit the entire evening.
Hope this helped...

I am so sorry for your loss. I cannot imagine how that feel to lose a sibling. I think it's wonderful that you want to honor him at your wedding.

I am doing a candle for my grandparents at our ceremony and possibly mentioning them in our program. Maybe do a moment of silence at the ceremony/reception before you eat dinner/both??

I'm sorry for your loss. You can always do a donation as a favor in memory of him. I'm not sure how he passed, but it's nice to give it to a cause that will help peopl in the future. I've also seen the candle burn and I think that is beautiful. You can also put something on the back of the programing dedicating your ceremony to him.
