She asked for a penny from her birth year (1993 ) for good luck. After about two hours of searching, I gave up and found one on the bay. . .will be a fun, busy week, with relatives coming from Ohio, friends and family in and out of the picture. She's my only kid. I'm sporting the necktie I wore the day I married her mother (RIP). Same shoes too. Alas, a different suit. . .
On the day she was born, I walked her down a hospital corridor from the delivery room to the nursery. The thought occurred to me then that someday we would walk together down a different aisle. That day is nearly here.

Congratulations. I've served in that capacity twice. If it's within the realm of affordability (it might not be if you're paying for a wedding) how about a gold coin dated 1993?

Congratulations and best wishes all around.
Sorry for your and her loss on this very special occasion but her Mom will be with her in many ways. Hopefully, there will be uplifting stories to share about her Mom that will brighten your daughter's day and lift her spirits.
Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.
We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.

Went to the bank this morning to exchange a bunch of rolled coins for folding money. As I'm driving away, a dimwit back her truck into the right rear door and quarter panel of my sedan. . .
Hopefully not an omen of things to come.

Congratulations! The fleeting thought you had when first holding your daughter is one I am sure many new dad have had. I do like how you and your daughter are weaving into the ceremony things that are important to you or have some special symbolism/memory.
Enjoy the wedding!

Thanks for the good wishes. It was a more emotional experience than I expected.
