Gone, but never forgotten. When a loved one passes on, it’s never easy having to say goodbye. It can be especially difficult when that loved one can no longer be there and share in one of the happiest days of your life; your wedding day. For some brides and grooms, it’s important to feel as though a part of their loved ones are there on their wedding day and show how special that person was to them. From display tables to images attached to bouquets and lapels, couples are choosing to remember their loved ones in various ways, sparking new forms of creativity and individuality on their wedding day. Here are some of my favorites.
Sentimental photos on the bride's bouquet is always one of my favorites.

Just like the bride can have a photo on her bouquet, the groom can wear an image on his lapel, attached to his boutonniere or inside his cuff links.

Displayed images are always popular but couples are becoming more and more creative in how they display the photos.

Reserving a seat in his or her honor is also one of my favorites and often chosen by many couples.

Candles are always a great way to remember someone. At many memorials, people light candles and it's a nice gesture at a wedding as well.
