*UPDATED FOR 2021* So, let’s talk wedding memorials and remembrances. Not a cheerful topic, but something that unfortunately affects many engaged couples as they plan their wedding day, knowing that someone important won’t be present. Whether it’s a recent loss or someone long-missed whose absence is especially felt on big occasions, many of you will have a parent, one or more grandparents, a sibling, or an old friend on your mind. And, while a wedding is the happiest of occasions, it’s also a celebration of history and community, and I think an appropriate moment to acknowledge those who are part of that history, even if they are deceased. But how do you create a wedding memorial that pays tribute without lessening the joy?
