As much as the groom and the bride may think it is their wedding day, the mother of the pride may also consider this to be partly her day. She may have been looking forward to this day almost as much as the groom her daughter. The ceremony is a chance for her to dress up to the nines and entertain her family and closest friends. While she has no specific roles as such, it is very likely that she will have played a major role in getting the venue ready, as well as overlooking the catering team among other things. She will also usually spend the morning helping the bride with whatever she needs and requests. It is a very good idea for the groom to check throughout the wedding day that his new mother-in-law is having a good time. She will defintely remember your gesture.
