A wedding is a holiday not only for the newlyweds, but also for their parents. Mom of the groom and mother of the bride deserve special attention. To set aside time at the celebration and express our love and gratitude to them is a natural desire of children that deserves respect.
How to prepare?
Best thanks to mom at the wedding will be sincere kind words spoken from the heart. This moment is very exciting. Even experienced speakers, accustomed to speaking to the public, are captivated by emotions, and the speech is crumpled. The gift of improvisation can leave at a crucial moment, so it is important to prepare in advance.
Take some time to retire and be alone with yourself and with your feelings for mom. Remember the funny cases from childhood, the situation when mother's advice or help came to the rescue. Not always everything goes smoothly in the relationship between parents and children. On this day, do not recall insults and claims.
Draft text on paper. You can take them as a basis for finished blanks, but it is better to do without templates. Despite the fact that the speech is delivered with a large number of guests, it is intended primarily for mothers. Pompous, pathos phrases should be abandoned, choosing the simplest kind words and images that are understandable to her.
Choose the most tender words for addressing your mother: dear, dear, dear, beloved, golden. Make it clear that there is no person more beloved or closer to your mother in the world than you.
Learn the finished text by heart, rehearsing several times. Just in case, prepare a cheat sheet, writing thanks on a holiday card. A beautiful addition will be beautiful verses. And the performed song will become a bright and touching decoration of the celebration.
A good idea is to show slides with children's photos from a family album.
From daughter
Expressing gratitude, the daughter can tell the guests about the wonderful qualities and virtues of her mother, name the traits of character inherited from her, acquired skills and abilities, and thank her for protecting her from all hardships and sorrows with her love. For softness and tenderness on the one hand, and rigor and exactingness on the other. Mother's work and diligence, sleepless nights, good wishes and blessings were not in vain. All talents now have to reveal themselves in family life. And the mother’s motherhood will be the best reward to her mother for her life, joyful childhood and bright youth, which will bring the opportunity to do the same for her child.
Mom will be pleased to hear that despite the constant chores of the housework, work, caring for loved ones, she is beautiful and talented, is the standard of his wife and mother, a role model for a young bride.
Be sure to emphasize that despite the fact that the husband and the new family came to the forefront of the adult daughter, mother's support, wisdom, life experience are very important at this stage of her life no less than before.
A sincere “thank you” should be said to mom for participating in the pre-holiday chores and preparing the bride for the celebration, for gifts and financial assistance.
On the wedding day, the bride finds a second mother - the mother-in-law. It is very pleasant for the groom’s mother to receive words of gratitude from the bride for raising her son. Speaking about the merits of her husband and recognizing the merit of this of his mother, the bride shows not only respect, but also learns to build relationships with future relatives.
From son
Men are often laconic. Here it is important to cope with excitement, not to squeeze and be yourself, clearly and clearly express your thoughts, while showing sincere feelings: reverence, recognition and love.
The son thanks mom for tenderness, care, understanding, for patience and endurance, for useful lessons and tips. For the fact that in difficult moments of growing up, mother consoled, spoke sweet words, tried to cheer up, and she did it. Because at times she placed the needs and interests of the child above her own. For the fact that she raised a defender and breadwinner and led him to the fact that he can now take responsibility for his new family and take care of his young wife.
You can apologize for the rebellious tricks and unwillingness to obey. What just did not happen in childhood and especially during the "difficult age". Feeling their strength, wanting to free themselves from guardianship, boys often hurt their mothers with their harsh words, without even noticing it.
Another woman reigns in his heart - his wife. It is important to assure that the love for mom is still great and the son is her support and protection at all times.
This is the case when you should not be shy about your emotions and you can give free rein to your feelings.
Mother of the bride to the groom will also not just have to say a word of appreciation. After all, from now on, her clever and beautiful girl moves to another family. It is important for the groom to make it clear that under his auspices the young wife will be happy, live in abundance and abundance. There are no reasons for alarm and concern. You can thank for the beauty and easy nature of the bride. A lover's adoring glance cast at his young wife will be more eloquent than any words.
Having spilled the sea of tears, you can complete the ritual with a bow from the bride and groom or with a warm embrace.
