These are such touching stories. Those of you who shoot weddings professionally will never know the opportunities you have to create memories.
My father refused to get familiy portraits made. We have one portrait that was made when he and my mother got married, but throughout our lives, we only had snapshots of the family, and rarely was he in them. However, when my youngest brother got married, my father somehow agreed to be in a few of the photos, and the photographer got one shot of just my parents. That is the only (and I mean ONLY) other picture we have of my parents together. It is also the only capture we have that looks the way they did when we grew up (obviously, we never personally saw them at the age of their wedding portrait).
Weddings are one of the few times some families gather, and unlike funerals, it is a happy time. Take tons of pictures of those families, please. As everyone here has pointed out, those moments are all too fleeting.
