It has to be one of the most romantic gestures ever. When Brad Pitt married Angelina Jolie at their family home, Chateau Miraval in Correns France, he gave her a locket. The Locket contained a photograph of her late mother, Marcheline Bertrand. Angelina's mother, whom she adored, died of ovarian cancer in 2007 at the age of just 56. Brad and Angelina had been dating for two years. But Marcheline did not live long enough to see the couple marry or to meet their brood.

By giving Angelina the locket, Brad ensured her mother's "presence" at the wedding. It meant she remained in everyone's thoughts throughout the day. Wedding lockets have long been a feature of Eastern cultures. Many Indian brides wear a wedding locket on their big day. Now they are beginning to take off in the west.

These have special significance for them. The wedding locket is a popular way to ensure a parent, grandparent or special friend who cannot be there, is not forgotten.
