Mother of the bride:

Prior to the Wedding:

Give all your knowledge to your daughter in this special time, but remember it is her day. Support her in her wishes.

Offer to assist the bride as often as possible

Help organise the meeting of the groom's parents

Help with the guest list

Help organise accommodation for out of town guests

Mail invitations at least six to eight weeks before the wedding day

Be there for your daughter, help her keep calm and keep the little things from bothering her. A glass of champange can go a long way.

Ensure everybody is focused on the bride and not themselves.

Simply keeping the peace can make all the difference.

Enjoy the day as well.

Sometimes you will be seated at the wedding table.

You may need to prepare a speech.

Have fun, real FUN
