FH and I have lost 4 grandparents in the last few years. I'm not one for wedding memorials, but FH was very close to his grandmother in particular, and he *really* liked the empty chair approach.
However, his family suffered the sudden, tragic loss of his uncle last summer. Our wedding is December 2021, but we're in agreement that the empty chairs will be WAY too much, especially for his aunt and cousins.
We both think the memorial is an "all or nothing" situation (include everyone, or none), and he still wants to do something. The full photo table with the popular quote feels a bit too much for me, personally. Any thoughts or tips on something more subtle?
(The goal is largely for FH to feel like the missing family members are near, and to let others know we're feeling the absence of these loved ones.)
Any brainstorms greatly appreciated!
