23 Meaningful Mother of the Bride Gift Ideas
By Sophie Carter - 17th June 2024
The mother of the bride is a pivotal role in anyone's wedding day, and one that doesn't go unnoticed. She'll likely be counting the hours until she gets to see her beloved daughter embark on the next exciting stage of life, and on the day will be brimming with excitement, emotion and joy. Of all the wedding roles that deserve a big ‘thank you’, the mother of the bride comes near top, as not only is it tradition for her to act as official hostess to the guests, she'll likely have had heavy involvement in the planning and execution of the day's events too.
Do you get the mother of the bride a gift?
It has long been tradition to honour the bride's mother during the ceremony or reception, either with a mention in a reading or the groom's wedding breakfast speech. Many now go one step further to commemorate the mother of the bride's involvement in the day by gifting her something sweet and thoughtful as a thank you.
1. Share your thanks with a pretty and practical present such as our Thank You Mini Candle and Dried Flower Posy Gift

Who gives the mother of the bride a gift?
Whether you're a doting daughter wanting to show appreciation for everything Mum has done, or you're the soon-to-be son-in-law keen to show her she's valued, a great gift will likely never go unappreciated.

When do you give the mother of the bride a gift?
Among the bustle of the ceremony and the post-wedding wind-down, it can be hard to find the time to properly present a gift to the mother of the bride. The best time to gift her something special is on the morning of the wedding, whether it's something she can use on the day or treasure long after.

A great gift doesn't have to be lavish to be cherished. Sometimes it is easier to say the biggest ‘thank you’ with the smallest present. If you're looking for a petite but sweet present to share appreciation, going down either a practical or personal route can be your best bet to truly make her smile.

Of course there are many more ways to say ‘thank you’ than gift-giving, and most mums just love to be thought of when it comes to a special occasion. If you're sharing your appreciation on the day, why not give her a mention in the speeches or a special place in the wedding photos? A great way to show her you're grateful for everything she does after the wedding mania has died down is to take her out for dinner or afternoon tea. After all, she'll be delighted with any mention of your appreciation in whatever form, and will be bursting with pride for her favourite couple and their exciting new chapter.
