To my dear ones in heaven.

At weddings overseas, many couples prepare a memorial sign for their loved ones who are in heaven.

What is a memorial sign?

It is a signboard that contains a message written for the deceased (not just a short phrase, but a long and heartfelt message).

It is displayed in the welcome space or around the seating area where the person was supposed to sit,

serving as a wedding item to convey feelings of gratitude to the guests who may be watching over them from above.

So, what kind of content is typically written on such memorial signs?

Here are some examples of overseas texts ♩
