In addition to all the more traditional items like wedding unity candles, there are items available to include a loved one who has passed on in your special day. This is particularly important to many brides and grooms who have lost a parent, sibling or beloved grandparent prior to their ceremony.
Keepsake candle holders bearing the names of your loved ones can be present on the altar as you speak your vows, accompanied by a photograph or photographs if you wish. At a wedding I once attended, a seat was left empty for the purpose of holding a large framed photograph of a groom’s mother, which had been carried into the ceremony by an usher with a rose. It was a small gesture, but also meaningful for the entire family. Many guests noticed this touch and made positive observations about it at the reception.
