    Here's an idea for rejecting this - I very much doubt it is legal to carry around someone's ashes, even if you really want them present at your wedding. At best you would need permission from the appropriate state agency and the church. I don't know what's the law in Iowa, but in other states you cannot do this.

    In a wedding etiquette book I got recently, I read that weddings are to be celebrated by the living and it is not okay to even put the name of someone who has passed away on invitations. I know it's a sensitive issue, and I myself would do anything to have my grandma at my wedding, but it seems much less creepy to commemorate your FI's grandpa by having his picture there instead of his remains :)
