    Hi Ladies,

    So I decided I'd like to have a bouquet charm made in rememberance of my father on my wedding day, but I'd like a little help deciding on a photo.

    I'm doing a bouquet charm to remember my dad too :) The pic I'm using is horrific, but it makes me laugh when I look at it & remember how funny he was. Which picture "means" something to you? Do you have a specific memory in any of them, maybe the photos when your older?  I would go with the picture that sparks a good memory.

    I love the robe one, but @red velvet makes a good point about sparking a memory and that one is probably too early to remember. It's just so precious!

    The robe one is adorable. I like how you as a baby are lying near his heart - if you pick it for your bouquet, it would show how he's always in your heart and he's there in spirit. Or, I agree with the other posters and pick a nostalgic photo. When one of my best friends got married a year ago, she picked a photo of her mom for a bouquet charm that showed her in no makeup wearing just a tank top and jeans. But that was the way my friend remembered her mom, so that's why she used it. :)

    I'm actually planning to have it engraved with the words "in my heart," so maybe the robe picture is the most fitting.

    I like the photo of your dad in the suit, you see his face more clearly and you need to see that face on your wedding day.

    I'm also having 3 charms on my bouquet..my dad, and my grandparents who passed recently.

    Can't go down that aisle without them with me in spirit.  So sad you're feeling this loss right now, here's hugs from somebody right there in it with you.  Hugs.
