One of my FI bestf riends ( usher obviosly) just found out he has to leave for IRAQ on July 14....for 18 months...so now he'll be missing our wedding..... He is really upset about this whole thing and we are too....so I wanted to cheer him up so I came up with thsi idea:
I wanted to put him in a tux and take a picture of him.. Then get it blown up into a cardboard cutout and have him standing up there with the rest of the guys at the chursch...and bring him to the reception too...he was laughing so hard when i told him and was very eager to do this YAY or NAY?
And of course in honor of Kev I will get yellow ribbons for bouts and bouqs.

I think its bot a YAY and a NAy at the same time.
NAy if the crowd is not in total understanding of why but definitely a YAY because it really is a special way to include him literally
I agree!

great idea & tribute to your friend. I may explain it in your wedding program or just announce it during the service. I think that is very cute and original

very creative... but I just wouldn't want a huge cut out in front of the church at my rceremony... but that's just me though...

I think that it's a great idea.. but maybe would hold back at having the cut out standing on the alter with you.. I'm not sure how the church would react to that.. ask them.. mentioning him in the program would be a great idea.. and maybe at the reception even have the cut out 'walk in' with one of your bm's
I agree..having this at the alter may be a bit much..but definitly include him in your programs...maybe the GM can wear yellow roses??
