Mother of the Bride Pre-Wedding Tasks

It is great to have someone there to help you with your wedding plans, especially when your mom is eager to help and be part of your special day!

The mother of the bride traditionally plays a big role in the wedding, especially if she's hosting. Your relationship will inform how involved your mom or mom-stand-in wants to be during your festivities. Some mothers of the bride are extremely involved in helping to plan their daughter's wedding day, while others prefer to take a back seat.
