I am very lucky that I had wonderful parents, trully, blessed beyond belief. Unfortunately, they have both passed, when I was in my early 20s. But of course, I'd like to still make them a part of this special day.
I wanted to honor them somehow, without of course, removing joy from my upcoming nupitals. One idea I had was to have my bouquet in white lillies, and have 2 roses in their favorite colors , as the only color in my arrangement.
I do have my brother who will be walking me down the aisle and will be there for my "father"/daughter dance. I didn't want to take that away from the groom's mother.
Does anyone have any other suggestions? Also, if I wanted to do something that usually would involove both mothers or bother fathers, would I be ok "subbing" in my brother or his wife?
I just want to thank them and honor them for everything they had done, and just to know that even though they are gone, they aren't forgotten.
