1. Include her in all the prep and prim. Make your mother feel more included and part of your close group by asking her opinion and advice on all the little things. Let her help in picking out your outfit, your hairdo, your jewelry and ask her about the make-up. You’re definitely going to need help in the dressing room, a wedding dress isn’t easy to put on or carry, who better to call than the woman who dressed you when you were a child?

2. Arrange a photoshoot specifically with her. You probably already have professional photographers hired for the ceremony, go out of your way a little, and have a separate photoshoot just with your mother! This will create a unique and memorable bonding moment and you can look back on it and reminisce.

She deserves to look every bit as good as the bride’s mother, others as possible. So, when picking out a dress for yourself, look for something gorgeous and elegant for your mother too. Something that she’d like, feel comfortable in and something that would signify and make apparent her importance to you.
