Religious Wedding Programs Remembering Deceased Relatives At Our Wedding?

Remembering deceased relatives at our wedding? - religious wedding programs

My friend and I would like to take a moment to our wedding, to the memory of our respective grandfathers, who died, honor, and his grandfather's, Alzheimer's disease and are unable to participate, has our wedding. We really do not want to speak a "dead time" in marriage, a prayer (as we are not really religious) and really do not want to set the mood of a day that is so full of joy vice versa.

I thought that their inclusion in the "Acknowledgment Section" of our program, since some of the marriage:
"We would like time for a moment to those who passed who could not be here today to honor. We who were with us, but we know we are here in spirit." And then put their name and relationship us.

After her grandfather, but too ill to participate is difficult. I do not want to sound as if you are already approved for use in the acknowledgments section. Has anyone else this kind of situation, or something similar? I want to hear your ideas!

I have several weddings where having a "moment of silence in honor of loved ones that is not done today with us. It shall, in the light of the unity candle.

This is a wonderful idea. I think no one you despise it in the acknowledgments, if they know their situation. These are the only people who would be, but can not. You can not go, other friends and family, but I do not want to take photos for them.

Me and my buddy both have a grandfather who was near death. I think there should be an empty chair and a rose in his seat by the aisle. On the program to explain the signifigance of the rose. put something that is loved by his grandfather in a wheelchair parts, as being there. This should also be announced in the program, but not as a receipt.

I have included a poem read in our programs, that such a thing as "can not be here, but we still think of you and this ceremony is held in their honor," then lists the names of all relatives. I have the poem online. I've seen a lot, but I finally found one that fits perfectly.

a year ago and half a good friend of mine lost his sister in a car accident 3 months before their marriage. Her sister would be the Ministry of Health. Illuminated at the front desk for a picture of her with a candle in the center, he sat at the front desk.

One thing I've got more and more in 5-7 years (I am a wedding officiant) is placed on images of people killed in racks in the chapel at the reception, has it really is a nice touch ..

One of them, make it short and sweet. I attended a wedding recently in the rambling discourse about parents died and he was a little more.

Why do you mention it as well? It's not like you to insult them out! The mere mention of her deceased relatives at a wedding reminds me of a funeral.

I think it's a wonderful idea. My niece had a note in your wedding program, suggesting that the flowers are dead, in memory of their grandparents. They may, by notice, as you said, in recognition of those who died then maybe you have a song or something in honor of his grandfather, who was unable to travel could devote to time. I do not know how they look at the program, but are immediately placed even in parentheses under the name of the song. If you do not want the program, you had the DJ make an announcement of the song at the reception, and then play, rather than before the ceremony. A favorite flower or something you still want to do something, I might be on a table with a small box (perhaps unframed note ????) They say it was his favorite flower, and you know who wants to be here but it is not able to travel .... Something like that. Or even his favorite treat in an apartment in Nice with a similar sound? I think I like the idea of written note and a table SomewereHere are the best. Not sure why, but ...

I think his desire to honor their deceased relatives is something commendable. Also took the time to their husbands grandfather who could not, because honor of Alzheimer's disease become.

You say you do not want to sound like his grandfather died, as you say, "Honor those who" left "and" those that can not be here "after each ad.

I think it's a good idea.

In order not to make a difference and think maybe people that died in her sick husband and grandfather. Why not just say, said in honor of all those who can not be here today and not repeat it (), that those who succeeded and those who have not here.

You should not distinguish between the two groups of deceased relatives and patients.

In any case, may not exist, either through death or illness, so I think it would be wise to simply say anything that could not be here today, marriage, and then we can give names and relationships(Uncle, aunt, grandparents, etc., etc.), so there is no distinction and there is no confusion because we should recognize that you are relatives who could not have at your wedding. To do this, not to mention the reason that the garages and the patient said, broken ......

I think it will help those who did not attend his wedding to be and so there is no confusion or other "possible" resentment honor.

Do you have a lot of joy and happiness in their marriage.
