My sister is in the army and due to deploy shortly after (like, a couple of weeks) the wedding, and is unfortunately unable to attend the wedding due to training requirements. My thoughts were to make an honorary candle for her by tying a yellow ribbon around it, and putting a phrase on it like "Today we remember those in uniform who are unable to join us today, and we thank them for the sacrifices they are making" or something, and then putting my sisters name and "Sister of the Bride". Only, I want to do it in a way that doesn't make it look like she's dead, you know? That would be kind of bad. I come from a very large military family. Would this be an okay thing?
