The father of the bride at yesterday's wedding passed away a few years ago. Obviously, that was on everyone's mind as we celebrated the wedding.
The mother of the bride got up to speak and (paraphrasing) said:
We're all thinking about Ron at a time like this. This is the 2nd wedding I've done without him. There's a lot of emotion, of course, but you should all thank him. After all, he's paying for the wedding!"
I just thought it was a great way to alleviate the emotional cloud. My impression was that the crowd loved it.
