With it coming up to Mother’s Day I thought I would do a bit around the Mother of the Bride and the Mother of the Groom. A bride to be recently contacted me asking for recommendations for Mother of the Bride shops in Ireland to go too.
Unfortunately, in this current environment, that I talk about on my Instagram page a lot of small businesses are struggling to keep the lights on especially in the wedding industry. With a few shops having closed its doors this bride wanted some recommendations from other brides of Mother of the Bride shops to go too as she doesn’t want to buy online. She really wants the experience of going with her Mum to try on the outfits and make a day of it!
Here is a photo of Mum and I after she found her Mother of the Bride dress. We went for coffee and wine to celebrate!

Well, you’ll be delighted to know that I have some Mother of the Bride shop recommendations from you which other brides have given me.

Here is my Mum and I on my wedding day. I had a list of photos I wanted the photographer to take but I never put down for a photo of the two of us and I have no idea why. This is one of my biggest regrets so make sure you get a professional photo of your Mum and you on your wedding day.

And this my one of my favourite photos of our wedding! This was taken by our photographer when my Mum got up to say a few words! Everyone started cheering and she couldn’t stop smiling!!

Happy shopping
