    If you're doing some type of memorial for those that have passed on (memory candles, picture frames, etc.), where are you placing it? At the reception? Ceremony? On its own table?  Escort card table? Thanks.

    I think we'll set ours up at the ceremony, either in the back of the sanctuary or out in the narthex/entrance so folks see it when they walk in, get programs, etc. We'll likely have a small candle for each person, and maybe a small photo of each if we can find small ones of each person, all on it's own separate table (that way those who aren't comfortable w/ memorial type set-ups or who didn't know our families don't feel obligated to stop over for a moment).

    I feel like the ceremony is a more solem and serious time where we'd want to pay tribute to our loved ones and friends that we've lost, while the reception is pretty much solid revelry :-)
