Heartbroken

So sorry to heat this Nikki, at least she is no longer in pain, or suffering at all.

Perhaps you could have a picture board or something with photos of her and you (and other family)

*hugs* Sam xx

Sorry for your loss.

Could you put her photo in your bouquet? X

You can have photo charms for your bouquet, a photo on the card/gift/cake table, or do you have an item of her jewellery you could wear? I wore my nan's ring on my wedding day.

Really like this idea, sorry for your loss xxx

I'm very sorry to hear your sad news.

We too have lost someone recently and I am having a bouquet charm with their photo in.

We are having a candle lit at the entrance of the church with a message to say about the loved ones that couldn't be there. Also taking a moments silence during the ceremony to remember them xx

I'm so sorry for your loss. My FFIL died recently from cancer, we felt having his photo on display might be too upsetting for people. In rememberance of him we have bought Marie Curie pin badges for favours and will mention him and my mum, who is no longer with us, in the speeches. We are also having some of his favourite songs played at the evening reception because he loved his music and was always singing. I have bought my oh cufflinks with his dads photo on as a wedding gift and i have a bouquet charm with a photo of my mum xx

Nikkijj86 so sorry to hear about your grandma passing away.

I have found this lady on facebook who does bouquet bridal charms and also buttonhole pins

I am going order from this lady as they are the best i've seen and a reasonable price as well

Thank you so much for all your replies, it means a lot. You've given me some lovely ideas. We'd already decided on the cancer research pins as favours as unfortunately we've both lost close family members to cancer previously. But I love the picture board & the bouquet idea. Thanks again

I'm sorry to hear of your loss. It's not easy I know. My partner lost his grandad just before Christmas last year and I have got him some cufflinks with his nan and grandad on and we are having a memorial table with photos of family members that we have lost but we know they will be with us in spirit.

So sorry for your loss. We are including our grandparents in subtle ways on the day - h2b's have both passed away and my grandparents can't travel to the wedding.

I am wearing my grandmother's pearls which will be my "something old", and we are using music my grandfather has written during the church ceremony. h2b is wearing a pair of his grandfather's cufflinks, and I am pinning a brooch his grandmother wore daily to my bridal bouquet as my "something borrowed". I like the idea of having things of their's there, as opposed to photos etc.

Oh Hun I'm so sorry for your loss.

I also have relatives who have passed which I would like to try and incorporate into my wedding. I'm having photographs of them in lovely photo frames and these are going to be put either side of my cake table.

What about wearing a locket with her picture in it. I love lockets xx

So sorry for your loss. Some lovely ideas here ,x
