There is a time and place for everything and a wedding ceremony is neither the time nor the place for a song honoring the Bride's deceased Father.
A wedding is a positive, and anything that you do that brings attention to someone that has passed away is a negative. Don't put a negative into your wedding ceremony.
True story . . the Groom insisted that his brother read "his deceased Father's favorite Bible passage" in the beginning of the wedding ceremony. The Groom's Mother was so overtaken with tears and grief that she left the wedding ceremony crying hysterically. She missed her son stating his vows . . receiving his wedding ring . . and kissing his new Bride (she did not see or hear ninety percent of his wedding).
If you wish to honor your Father, do it in a subtle or indiscreet way. Put his favorite flower in your bouquet . . put a single rose on the reception table but don't turn your wedding into a memorial service.

Heaven's no dear, it would be the most special gift one could do to honor someone that they love , and why the reception why not at the wedding itself darling, there are a lot of ways to honor one 's loved one , by lighting a candle after the I Do's and by letting one father sing to honor another father , there was a candle lite for my father and grandmother and grandfather at my wedding , and just thinking about it now still brings tears to my eyes , it is your day , your day to remeber and to be grateful for the ones that gave you their all in their life. there is a song that was sang at my wedding that was very special to me and my new husband . here is a list of the songs we played and had sung hope they help you in finding what you are looking for , and please don't forget it is your day so have it the way you will always remeber it ..God Bless and let me know how it goes ,,,
Breath / Faith Hill
You're in my Heart/ Rod Stewart
Words of Love / The BEatles
This I promise you /NSYNC

How does your fiance feel about that? If you both agree, fine. Otherwise I think it is a time of joy , not a memorial and your father would want you to be celebrating your day with him in your heart. If you are having programs you could mention him or put a rose on a chair in his honor also

It's your wedding - and if that's what you want to have done, then by all means - go for it. I"m sure your future father in law will be deeply touched at you bestowing such an honour on him. Make sure there's plenty of tissues there - a heartfelt gesture in rememberance of special person in your life. This will allow you and other family members to have him a part of your wedding - in spirit and in mind since he can't be there in body.

What a beautiful and touching idea. That song would be perfect. I would be sure to have plenty of Kleenex on hand. I don't think there will be a dry eye in the place. Best wishes to you and remember, your Dad will be there with you, in your heart. God bless!!

you could honor him by utilizing a number of his fav flowers (if he had any) or one among his fav colours on your bridal occasion colours. you've a small allure like photograph sq. of him and his spouse dangling out of your bouquet. traditionally you carry a white hankie with you decrease than your flowers, so which you ought to have the hankie along with his initials embroidered on it. For the mummy-son dance, you ought to have them dance to a minimum of one among his father's fav songs. you ought to set a table with a photo of his deceased father a button holer & a corsage that ought to have been worn by him and function candles. day after in the present day you could place your ideal table association on the grave alongside with a photo of you and your new husband (it incredibly is my sis theory...). you could communicate mutually with your better half's mom approximately according to risk utilizing her husband's wedding ceremony band on your husband. you ought to get married on a similar day his mothers and fathers had. there is distinctive approaches you could honor him. however the main serious and particular way you could honor him, is to be a stable spouse to his son, and help him to be a stable husband to you. are no longer 2 better than one?

I don't think it would be wrong. Ask the person preforming the ceremony if there are any objections to it.
