The custom of displaying photos of parents, relatives, and ancestors' weddings 🪞 It's lovely to prepare a [memorial table] at the wedding.

Beautiful Customs of Overseas Weddings

In overseas weddings, it is common to display wedding photos of parents, grandparents, relatives, and ancestors during the ceremony.

This table, decorated in memory of other family members' weddings, is referred to as a "memorial table".

We exist because of our parents, grandparents, and loved ones.

It's a wonderful decoration that allows you to feel the history of your family ♡

Family-Centric Weddings ♡

In addition to the memorial table, overseas weddings often incorporate items that evoke a sense of family, such as attaching a brooch of a loved one to the wedding bouquet,

and providing a seat for the deceased during the ceremony.

It's lovely to feel the family bonds, including those who have passed away.

Displayed in This Way ♡

Here are some actual examples of overseas memorial tables＊

This idea features wedding photos of family members framed. It's stylish to use different photo frames for each.

The greenery and ribbons used to hang them are also beautiful.

Many photos in acrylic frames ♡ The mix of black-and-white and color photos gives a sense of history.

Even for those who may not want to display their own photos, showcasing family photos is a great idea. It makes you feel that "both of them grew up in wonderful families"＊

The text displayed alongside the family photos could be an introduction to the family...? Introducing important family members to guests in this way is also lovely ♡

There is written text below the photo frame, which is probably an introduction to the family as well＊

Preparing a large photo frame for the memorial table and capturing photos like this during the wedding seems like it would create lasting memories ♡
