Would you be open to inclusing something to honor moms at the ceremony? (roses or something).
I'll give some thought to the wording but I figured I'd throw that suggest out there real quick.
You know I think the same thing! My mom has played a much bigger role in my life than my dad.
Have you thought about having both parents walk you down the aisle?
@atalante: So I have tried thinking about a couple special things. I thought about having a rose behind my bouquet and give one to my mom and one to my future MIL. We are also doing a Unity candle and she will be the one that lights "our" families candle. She knows about the candle though and I just want to suprise her a little bit and acknowledge her in front of everyone in some way. I just can't put my finger on it.
@PinkMagnolia: I have had that thought but the aisle isn't large enough. Plus when I presented that to my mom she said that she didn't want to do that and possibly block everyone from being able to see me. I have seen it done though and it is beautiful if you can get enough room to walk down.
You could have her light the unity candles before she is seated. We did this with DH's and my moms and it worked out well. It gave them a way to be included in the ceremony and they felt special.
We did a flower ceremony during the ceremony. Basically the officiant said a nice thing about how important our mothers are and presented them each with a flower.

Hello,
My mom is my best friend. She has been there for me through everything in my life. My parents divorced when I was very young. Although I talk to my dad and we have a relationship, it isn't very strong. My mom got pretty upset the other day because she said that she is my prominent parent but my dad gets to walk me down the aisle and my stepdad (who has been in my life forever and is like a dad to me) gets to dance with me at the wedding but, she doesn't get to be acknowledged at all.
I felt so incredibly bad and hadn't even thought about that. I was thinking about suprising her by writing her a special "thank you" on the program. I want to do this tastfully and am not sure how to do this and what to write. Any recommendations would be wonderful from my bees.
Thanks in advance!
