Let your something old be from her \u2013 perhaps her favorite piece of jewelry or a section of lace from her wedding gown sewn into yours. She\u2019ll love knowing that a part of her is with you all day.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">2. Everyone has their list of favorite songs. Why not use one of hers for the ceremony? I\u2019ll bet that puts a smile on her face!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.littlechapel.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/MothersDay2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.littlechapel.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/MothersDay2.jpg\" alt=\"Closeup of wedding band\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>3. Just like your bridesmaids have matching bouquets to make them stand out, you could give each mother a single rose presentation or wrist corsage. Present the flowers before or even during the ceremony, making sure to let them know how much you have appreciated all of their love and support.<\/p>\n<p>4. Save mom\u2019s seat. Leave a sign with an adoring letter to your mother attached to her seat. What a wonderful surprise!<\/p>\n<p>*Hint: Have her sit on the opposite side of where you\u2019ll be standing. This way, she can see your beautiful face as you recite your vows to your future husband.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.littlechapel.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/MothersDay3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.littlechapel.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/MothersDay3-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Mother and Bride walking to the ceremony\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>5. One of the sweetest ways of including your mother in your ceremony is by also having her walk you down the aisle. After all, she\u2019s giving you away too.<\/p>\n<p>6. If you choose to have a unity candle ceremony, light your candles from candles each of the mothers are holding, signifying two families joining together.<\/p>\n<p>7. Have her present the rings \u2013 Instead of the best man holding the rings, the mothers could. They could even \u201cwarm up\u201d the rings with love before passing them over.<\/p>\n<p>8. And for a mother who is no longer with us, my personal favorite is a locket with a photo of her attached to your bouquet. If you happen to have one of her on her wedding day, even better! It is such an elegant way of carrying her spirit with you on your big day.<\/p>\n<p>By: Jessie J.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>8 Fun Ways to Include your Mother in the\u00a0Wedding Mother\u2019s Day is tomorrow and we wanted to share our favorite ways to include mom on your wedding day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"content-type":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[88,77],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-wedding-tips","category-wedding-trends"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.littlechapel.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.littlechapel.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.littlechapel.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.littlechapel.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.littlechapel.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1"}],"version-history":[{"count":19,"href":"https:\/\/www.littlechapel.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4367,"href":"https:\/\/www.littlechapel.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1\/revisions\/4367"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.littlechapel.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.littlechapel.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.littlechapel.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
