Will it be too much like a funeral?

I want to put up pictures of our parents and our grandparents from their wedding day. But a couple of grandparents have passed away and their spouses have remarried, I was going to include those too. I was going to dress the table up all pretty with nice frames and candles and flowers. My question is will it look like a funeral memorial?

Will it be too much like a funeral?
Funeral-ish, or not it is going to be darned awkward. While I am totally disgusted at sentiments like "It's YOUR wedding and it's all about YOU and you should have everything YOUR way", I think this would be going too far the other direction. The event should be about YOUR marriage, the marriage that is taking place then and there -- not about other people or other marriages.
Reply:I don't think it will look like a funeral at all.


We are doing something similar in our wedding.


We are having a frame with all the grandparents (that have passed away) pictures in it and another frame with a nice memorial poem and a candle in a glass hurricane container engraved with in loving memory and an artificial rose.
Reply:I went to a family friends wedding and they had done this for their wedding. The photos were displayed on a table during the cocktail hour and there was a card under each photo explaining who was pictured. I thought it was such a cute idea. It was so interesting to see our friend's parents when they got married. So I think it is a great idea and no at all morbid!!


Have fun!!
Reply:You should put out in the lobby arear of the wedding site, there is nothing wrong with including passed loved ones. I went to wedding and a chair was draped with fabric and a single rose was placed in the chair alond with a picture to memoralize the grooms grandmother.
Reply:I think its taking the attention from you..although its nice to rember your family..and very sweet of you..I think it may be too much going on....
Reply:Lots of people do that so it would be very appropriate.
