There is no scripture that says that directly, however there are a variety of sermons and a couple books that cover that "doctrine."  There is a book by jc or cj ryles called shall we know each other in heaven...\n\nA  number of scriptures suggest that we might recognize each other, but none actually say it.\n\nGood luck and God Bless.

TWO WITNESSES\n\nChrist said; \nRev 1:20 The mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in My right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches: and the seven candlesticks which thou sawest are the seven churches. \nCANDLESTICKS ARE CHURCHES\nRev 11:3 And I will give power unto My two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth. Rev 11:4 These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth. \nMY TWO WITNESSES\nTWO OLIVE TREES AND TWO CANDLESTICKS\nThe two candlesticks (churches) are Smyrna and Philadelphia. \nOnly two churches Christ found no fault with (Rev.2:1-3:22).\nBut we are ONE church in the body of Christ.\n\n(Study Zech.4:1-14 for more incite)\n\ncandlestick all of gold (His church the body of Christ)\nbowl upon the top of it, reservoir for oil, truth (Our MIND)\nseven pipes to the seven lamps (God’s elect, Completeness Spiritual Perfection)\ntwo olive trees (trees producing oil, truth)\none upon the right side of the bowl  MIND (New Testament)\nthe other upon the left side thereof MIND (Old Testament)\n\nThis is (all these things are)\nthe word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel \nsaying, Not by might, nor by power, but by My Spirit (Holy Spirit)\nThe name Zerubbabel means “born at babel”, babel means “confusion”\nWe are all Zerubbabels born in confusion.\n\nWith the oil of truth by the Holy Spirit, we help bring light into the world.\n\nO great mountain (New World Order beast)\nbefore Zerubbabel thou shalt become a plain (Satin and his beast defeated)\nhe shall bring forth the headstone (Jesus Christ)\n\nThe hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house; \nhis hands shall also finish it\n(Our house is on the ROCK, we will bring forth the headstone)\n\nthe plummet in the hand of Zerubbabel (God’s Word, straight and true)\nthose seven (God’s elect, Completeness Spiritual Perfection)\nthey are the eyes of the LORD, which run to and fro through the whole earth\n\nWhat are these two olive trees?\nThese are the two anointed ones (sons of oil)\nIsaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Matthew, John, Paul, and etc.\nthat stand by the Lord of the whole earth.

With yellow and white being your colors there is one very logical "theme" for your reception - daisys.  For table centerpieces you could have daisy votive floating candles (floating on water) in a brandy glass (or vase) - they have guest books, pens, champagne flutes, etc. in the daisy theme.  \n\nBest wishes

I'm not sure, I think the candles are symbolic of their light shining on..\n\nMy husband lost a daughter to illness before we met, and at our wedding we released butterflies in memory of her. The program contained this poem:\n\nThe Butterfly \n\nHe had her there, resting on the palm of his hand for a while.\nShe was all he ever wanted.\nSometimes her wings were closed.\nMotionless.\n\nAt other times, she spread her wings open in the bright sunshine,\ndisplaying her colourful patterns.\nHe truly loved her.\nShe knew that.\n\nHe told her she was special and beautiful, he saw the beauty.\nHe appreciated her true colours.\nBut he couldn't keep her.\nHe knew that.\n\nShe was born to fly.\n\nShe had been beautiful in his hand, but in flight she soared.\nIn the garden amongst the colourful, sweet-fragranced flowers.\nHer habitat.\nFree.\n\nIn letting her go, he made her happy.\nBut she was always to remember his warmth and his love.\nAlways and forever.\nFor all of eternity. \n\n\nIt was a nice way for him to remember his daughter on a day when he would have liked for her to be there. We thought about candles and flowers, but wanted to do something special that was all our own. Get creative! It's your day- remember those you love in your own way!

I have two I really like:\n\n\nSwedish Proverb-\nLove is like dew that falls on both nettles and lilies.\n\nAnonymous-\nFrom every human being there rises a light that reaches straight to heaven. And when two souls that are destined to be together find each other, their streams of light flow together, and a single brighter light goes forth from their united being.

get some of the special candles holders for the 7 colors of candles and have one on each table at your reception.  Use 7 colors of banners made from silk to decorate.  Have the food served be of seven different colors.

Love\nThen said Almitra, speak to us of Love.\nAnd he raised his head and looked upon the people, and there fell a stillness upon them. And with a great voice he said: \nWhen love beckons to you , follow him, Though his ways are hard and steep. \nAnd when his wings enfold you yield to him, Though the sword hidden among his pinions may wound you.\nAnd when he speaks to you believe in him,\nThough his voice may shatter your dreams as the north wind lays waste the garden.\nFor even as love crowns you so shall he crucify you. Even as he is for your growth so is he for your pruning. \nEven as he ascends to your height and caresses your tenderest branches that quiver in the sun, So shall he descend to your roots and shake them in their clinging to the earth.\n\nLike sheaves of corn he gathers you unto himself.\nHe threshes you to make you naked. He sifts you to free you from your husks.\nHe grinds you to whiteness. \nHe kneads you until you are pliant; \nAnd then he assign you to his sacred fire, that you may become sacred bread for God’s sacred feast.\nAll these things shall love do unto you that you may know the secrets of your heart, and in that knowledge become fragment of Life’s heart.\n\nBut if in your fear you would seek only love’s peace and love’s pleasure, \nThen it is better for you that you cover your nakedness and pass out of love’s threshing-floor,\nInto the seasonless world there you shall laugh, but not all of your laughter, and weep, but not all of your treas.\nLove gives naught but itself and take naught but from itself.\nLove possesses not nor would it be possessed;\nFor love is sufficient unto love.\nWhen you love you should not say God is in my heart\nAnd think not you can direct the course of love, for love, if it finds you worthy, directs your course.\nLove has not other desire but to fulfil itself.\nBut if you love and must needs have desires, let these be your desires:\nTo melt and belike a running brook that sings its melody to the night.\nTo know the pain of too much tenderness.\nAnd to bleed willingly and joyfully .\nTo wake at dawn with a winged heard and give thanks for another day of loving;\nTo rest at the noon hour and meditate love’s ecstasy;\nTo return home at eventide with gratitude;\nAnd then to sleep with a prayer for the beloved in your heart and a song of praise upon your lips.\n\nFrom book THE PROPHET BY KAHLIL GIBRAN

Give me a passion for souls, dear Lord,\nA passion to save the lost;\nO that Thy love were by all adored,\nAnd welcomed at any cost.\n\n(Refrain)\nJesus, I long, I long to be winning\nMen who are lost, and constantly sinning;\nO may this hour be one of beginning\nThe story of pardon to tell.\n\nThough there are dangers untold and stern\nConfronting me in the way,\nWillingly still would I go, nor turn,\nBut trust Thee for grace each day.\n\n(Refrain)\n\nHow shall this passion for souls be mine?\nLord, make Thou the answer clear;\nHelp me to throw out the old life line\nTo those who are struggling near.

What about little white boxes or tiny pails of chocolate hearts or other candy, with a little note saying with love from (you & your partner)? (The Conversation Wedding Hearts look like a fun thing to wrap.) Or a white candle wrapped in gold or whatever color theme you have chosen? \n\nYou could put one at each place-setting at dinner, or you could send them out after the wedding with the thank-you cards - easier to organise than distributing them when you are trying to get away yourselves! \n\nThere are some great ideas on the links below, BTW, like personalised wedding-cookies.
