A mother is she who can take the place of all others but whose place no one else can take.
The big day is drawing near; you have balanced work, wedding planning, and a pretty active social calendar. But the one person who has stood by you as you have walked this journey is your Mom! While not all of us are lucky enough to have our biological mom in our lives, most of us have a mother figure there to support and guide us and stand in as the mother of the bride. Whether that’s grandma, auntie, a beloved childhood nanny, or just an amazing gal who stepped up when you needed her, it’s important to show our love and appreciation for these amazing ladies in our lives with something extra special.
The best part of the wedding planning journey is that this day isn’t just about you and your future spouse but about all the people in your life that have loved you well and have supported your relationship. It’s fun to be showered with gifts and compliments during this season, but it’s even better to reciprocate with those closest to you. Moreover, you can do that with a small gift or a personalized item that lets your mother or bonus mom know how much she means to you.
