    Hi all :)
    My H2B and I have some family members that are no longer with us but that we want to include in our wedding in some way, so we're thinking of having some photos of them displayed somewhere. Only thing is we're not sure how to do this without it looking pants to be honest :/ We are having a sweet table and I thought we could maybe put the pictures there, making it more pictures of us as kids with some of the other people in amongst them, but my H2B is not really sure about that idea!
    Have any of you done something similar or included pics of relatives in some other way?
    Thanks :)

    I have seen some ideas on p1nterest where the bride and groom have used a sign which says something along the lines of this seat is left empty in memory of those who cannot be with us today. And there are other ideas where people have hung photo frames of said relatives from trees near the venue, or dedicated a table inside the venue to their photos. I think it is a lovely thing to do, especially if you were really close to them x

    We're having a picture of my nana and OHs nana and grandad in a nice frame a stink the only placesecanthink to put them is on the gift table. we didn't want to have anything else to highlight the fact they aren't there or to upset anyone, just a frame and only the people who knew them (close family) will know what it's about. We're trying to avoid it being obvious and just a subtle reminder that we have thought of them on our big day x

    I think we are going to do the same as April and have them on the card/gift table but we will also be including some other photos like my mum and dads wedding as they got married in the same church so thought it would be nice to show that as a comparison to ours 35 years on! also that way so its not too sad for us :) xx

    What we are doing is on the way into main hall there is 3 big screens which looks like one huge one and this will have pictures with me and H2B from when we were babies growing up to when we met and this will show over the years relatives who were parts of our lives like my mum who is no longer here and both lots of grandparents.
    Also behind our top table we will be having wedding days pics of our parents and grandparents and great grandparents :)

    One thing extra will be not a picture but in the cathedral I will have one of my mums fave flower on a cushion where she would of sat so not too in peoples faces but it will help me feel like she is there :)

    We had two photos of grandparents in a frame with a memorial poem in the middle and then also had a photo tree on the same table which had photos of us with all of our guests throughout the years on it :) we also dotted some of them around on vines we had around the venue, everyone loved them! Xxx
