Gifts for the mother or the bride and/or a gift for the mother of the groom – they might be the two hardest wedding gifts to come by! What should you get them? You can't just get them anything, but you don't have a ton of money to spend? You don't want it to be like a Mother's Day present, but you want it to be special and meaningful to show them just how much you appreciate all of their help with the wedding planning…and, you know, getting you to this point in life!
Don't worry, I have you covered, because in today's installment of Garter Girl Loves I'm sharing a collection of unique and thoughtful gifts for the mother of the bride and/or the mother of the groom.
All of these gift ideas are sweet, simple and not too expensive. Some of these gifts are even funny, you know, to lighten the mood during that stressful time of wedding planning! Best of all, each of the gifts can switched around to be be easily gifted for the mother of the bride, for the mother of the groom or both!
Don't forget, I also have a selection of unique wedding handkerchiefs, which make perfect wedding gifts for those moms! For all the happy tears, of course! Check out all of my wedding hankies made from vintage wedding dress lace.

You know you need to gift everyone when it comes to your wedding, after all, they are most likely gifting you and your love in some way, but what should you gift them? It can be hard to find just the right gift, something that isn't too expensive, but is still really special and thoughtful. When in this situation, I like to go semi-custom. Semi-custom is when the gift isn't fully customized so that it will take too much time or energy, but is still obvious who it is for because there is a little bit of personalization. This could be a necklace with their birthstone, a funny candle or mug, or my favorite gift below, a bracelet with everyone's initials, including the newest member of the family!
Etsy is big on gifts for everyone, but I saved you a whole bunch of time and energy, because you are planning a wedding and I know you don't have a lot of time these days! I went to the end of Etsy to find just the right gift ideas for your mother of the bride and/or your mother of the groom that are sure to bring a tear to their eye, or maybe even a laugh or two!
Here is my collection of unique and thoughtful gifts for the mother of the bride and/or the mother of the groom….
