In your boquet if you know her favorite flower place it in your boquet in remebrance of her. You can wear her favorite color as a ribbon in your hair or maybe wear some of her jewlery if you have any.

When my daughter got married, her great grandmother was unable to attend. We asked if there was something small she could carry with her so her grandmother could be a part of the day as well. She sent us an antique handkerchief of hers. My daughter tucked it into the edge of her bouquet, and it was visible even in the wedding pictures. My daughter has been married for 16 years and her grandmother died shortly after she was married. When we see the pictures, we are all there, and with her in her bridal pictures "so was her grandmother". It meant a lot to my daughter to have that memory. Maybe there is a piece of jewelry or something small you can carry if this is not something that you would feel appropriate for your wedding. It can be something as small as a flower that she liked in your bridal bouquet. I know you will find the right "something" for you.

I had an outside wedding and my grandma passed away a couple of years before, my mom put a picture of her with a candle in front of it on a little table so I felt she was there at my wedding.

Do you have anything of your grandmothers that you could incorporate into your day? If not, a rose at the altar with a noted memorial in the wedding pamphlet is always a nice thing.

I like the ideas you have already so far but just know that your Grandmother can't wait to be apart of your special day. Now you can use anything she has given you or take a piece of the fabric she had to add to your dress...anything that makes you feel closer to her.

We set up some photos of our grandparents on THEIR wedding day near the card basket. We did feel that they were with us, in spirit. It was nice to have the photos there.
Also, I saw in a magazine once a locket with loved ones' pictures in side, dangling from the bride's bouquet.

For my senior prom, my grandmother let me borrow this really pretty necklace, bracelet, and watch. When she died, we were all going through her jewelry. I did not want any of her fancy rings or anything, I just wanted those three items.
I plan to wear these items for my wedding. My prom dress was an off white color because it was tradition for senior girls to wear white. It will look very pretty. :) Maybe you can think of something similar.

You could put a special flower in your bouquet. you can carry something of hers. You could save a special seat at the ceremony and put a flower on it and or a photograph to symbolize the missing loved one. I put a picture of my loved one into a small gold heart shaped keychain and tied it on the base of my bouquet.

i have 2 things that used to be my grandmother's that i am wearing/carryin with me on my wedding day. one is a linen hankercheif with blue emboridery on it, and the otehr is a gold bracelt wit a crystal clasp. if you haveanything of your grandmother's like this, or your parents do, see if you can waer them. i am also setting up a small table with pictures of my grandmother, grandfather, uncle, and my fiance's grandfather and decorating it with flowers and letter we've written for them saying what we miss most about them, and how we wish they could be there celebrating with us. that way, to some extent they are with us.

Have a special prayer for "those who cannot be with us here today. We especially remember with love Tina's grandmother, Elsie Smith." Something like that.
