Memorial Rose Ceremony

Rose Ceremony

A rose ceremony is simple yet profoundly moving.

Normally a rose ceremony is an exchanging of roses between the bride and groom.

But at a recent wedding ceremony at Saguaro Buttes the Bride and Groom used roses as a memorial, as a way of remembering family members who are no longer with us.

The ceremony consisted of family members, including children, each bringing a rose at the beginning of the processional. Each rose was placed in a single vase, with each rose representing the family member departed.

As the roses were placed in the vase their names were announced. Photos were take by Desi Aragon. @ Photos (c) Desi Aragon – desiaragon@gmail.com. To see more of his photos of Tracy and Angel’s wedding, check out his web site.
