    I'm a great believer in each to their own.

    If it makes you feel more at ease and happier, then go for it.

    Good luck to you.
    make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
    and we will never, ever return.

    It's very much an 'each to their own' issue.

    It's not something I did - or would do. It's not something that any of my extended family have done. And, between us, we have lost grandparents, parents, siblings and children - so it's not down to the relationship between the bride/groom and the deceased.

    Maybe because of that, the idea makes me uncomfortable.

    If it's the right thing for other people, though, then they should go for it.

    (Although they should be prepared for guests like me to have a bit of a weep every time they see the table! :o)
