wedding memorial ideas

Some of us choose to use our wedding days as a way to honor loved ones who have passed away. We’ve featured many touching, unique wedding day memorials over the years including wedding memorial tables with candles, signs, poems, and ceremony wording.

Katie & Kellan’s Firefly and sci-fi geek chic wedding

No Firefly wedding is complete without Jayne Hats and Kaylee parasols, right? Add in some dinosaur references, a “Hitchhiker’s Guide” program, and some Star Wars, and the geek cred is made. They may have clashed with the venue coordinator, but these two know how to make it work.

Lane & Jeff’s eco-conscious upcycled wedding

You know a wedding has made good eco choices when you only end up with a small grocery bag of trash at the end. Add that to the fabulously upcycled dress, DIYed napkins, coffee filter flowers, homemade jam favors, massive potluck (with nine pies!), and an awesome depression-era band, and you’ll love this sweet outdoor, budget party.

Jessica & Jacob’s low-key ’50s-Style wedding

At first I was like, “I love that dress!” and then I was all, “I love that hat!” And finally I said, “I love this wedding!” 1950s-inspired fashion, a low-key dinner after some geeky vows (Lord of the Rings and Doctor Who included), fun with a piñata, and a bazillion folded cranes — this is a wedding to savor.
