Before you walk down the aisle on your wedding day, there’s one special lady behind you through it all. It’s your mom. Mother's Day is the perfect time to spotlight all the ways your mom, grandmother or mom-like figure is there to make your wedding day even more special.

It all starts with dress shopping. Let’s be honest, it’s not “the one” until you see the tears flowing - hers, not yours. That’s a moment you’ll never forget. Now let the accessorizing begin. From your bridal veil to your wedding shoes, your mom is there every step of the way. And how much will you swoon when you see your love sharing their first dance with his or her mom? Heart eyes, big time!

Before your big day, be sure to review your photo checklist with your wedding photographer ahead of time so you capture all of the pre-wedding prep. From mom helping you slip into your wedding dress to securing your veil and calming your wedding day jitters, there’s just so much magic to be captured. Having that last-minute hug from her before you say “I do” is everything. She’ll never let you go, even after you’ve begun your new life as a newlywed.
