remembering loved ones readings If you would like to acknowledge loved ones who have passed, consider pinning a cameo to your bouquet, lighting a candle in their honour or displaying a photo together with a simple mention towards the beginning of your ceremony: Long or short, humorous or heartfelt, there are a myriad of choices for suitable passages to be read early in the ceremony, towards the end or both. Grandparents often share their wisdom about the secrets of their happy union and this adds a unique authenticity and warmth. Ben and Amy would like to pause for a moment to remember those who have passed and who hold a very special place in their hearts. Including family and friends in your ceremony is a great way to enrich and personalise the experience, whilst setting the scene for the party to follow! Photography Lani Carter Photographer
