Wonderdul encouragement. Yep. They made me cry today. I’m trying so hard to honor what my future DIL wants. She didn’t mean to hurt my feelings and I didn’t mean to stress her. It will all work out. I’ve never seen the officiant or florals on the list for groom’s family. We are able to host the rehersal dinner and I’ve certainly seeking wisdom from other MOG friends. Thanks for the helpful tips. Love language tip is also a good reminder.

That was wonderful, insightful advice. Thank you!

[@LadiesofPurposeTV]

Thank you for these tips;). I’m praying im a helpful blessing MOG. Our son proposed last weekend & as parents of groom we were honored he allowed us to be part of the proposal. It actually has helped us to “let go” in the sense and bless him Forward even more on this journey. There’s so many emotions for both sets of parents. 🙏🏻

I am a MOTG - wedding in 2024. My advice is to use a planner! I couldn't find one specifically for the mother of the groom, so I made one! ;)

[@LadiesofPurposeTV]

Any tips on yours? I’m making one now too. Mog may 2024. Thanks. & congrats btw

Just came across this in June 2022. I will be MOG in Nov of this year. The couple is having a microwedding. So these were helpful to me. Thank you. With the world the way it is today and long distance weddings. So many different choices. Thank you

[@carliem9494]

Goodness me, are weddings still this formal across the pond? I have my instructions on what I need to do - son and long-time partner are planning and paying for it all - both sets of parents just need to show up and do what they’re told😆

[@carolgeibe9360]

Thanks! My sons wedding is this afternoon and I will be keeping your thoughts in mind!

When choosing a dress, who goes first, the mother was the groom or the grandmother of the bride?

Im hurting financially my sons getting married on the 24 of march 2023 i dk what to do they are just doing a small ceremony

[@ameliepizza3987]

This will be so helpful to the MoG and to the Bride and Groom, I think it really will help the wedding planning be as happy of a time as it should be for everyone involved!

What to do if my son and very sweet daughter in law to be are not wanting to include me and my son and I were always so close but he now refuses to let me have a mother son dance and my future daughter in law said her family was covering everything and tells me the prices I have offered to help but but she always says no yes they have a child together my Granddaughter but he refuses to allow me to do anything even go to the rehearsal dinner and I ask kindly about her wedding colors and she shows me and the invitations but she said that she would unblock me to get one my son acts totally different when he is away from her not blaming her blaming my son

[@abclosius9166]
