From joining you for bridal appointments and fittings, to helping you with that final zip on the day, these are moments you and your mom will never forget. The bridal process can be just as emotional for mom as it is for you. She's seen you grow up in the blink of an eye, and of course she's thrilled for this new chapter you're starting, but there will always be a part of her that wishes she could go back to those early days with you, so just indulge her a little and enjoy this moment with her dressing you up one more time.

Sometimes, it's mom who's the bride, and how gorgeous are these beauties with their sweet kiddos?! From a new step-mom, to a nursing new mamma...I'm working on a maternity wedding dress as we speak! Life just keeps going, and a wedding is a celebration of the love we have found. It's a moment when we pause and connect not only with our partner, but with all the people who have loved us, nurtured us, and helped make us the person we are today. That may include your biological mom, but it can also include a whole assortment of other people in our lives, and that's truly something to celebrate.

There's no one way to be a bride, and I truly love all of the stories I get to hear and share. We've had brides from all walks of life, from all over the country (and world!), but one thing every bride has in common is a special connection to mom or someone in their life who has stepped into that role. So no matter what your story is, I wish you a very Happy Mother's Day!
