     Remembering deceased brother of bride at destination wedding  

As we are getting married in the Dominican Republic and have booked a package through a travel agent we can't plan the majority of our wedding until we get out there and haven't got a wedding planner we can speak to either until we are there. My brother died 6 years ago and I was really close to him and it wouldn't feel right getting married without a thought for him. Also, my fiance lost a baby sister when he was a toddler. I was thinking of, instead of throwing my bouquet, (as there are only 8 of us altogether and all close family) maybe floating mine and bridesmaids bouquet out at sea for my brother and new husbands sister. Im not sure if we would be allowed to do this since some places have strict rules over what can be put in the sea and I don't know how I would find out or even if you think it is an appropriate idea. Also, if we did go ahead with the idea, would it be best for just me and new husband to do it or have our parents join us too?

Sorry for a long post and thank you in advance.

Although a very nice idea, you would have to check the regulations for your destination. If you don't have a planner on this end, perhaps you need one on that end at least. If it is approved, I would invite others to join you in the ceremony, but don't be surprised if they are not receptive.
