When the wedding plans heat up and start becoming the only topic in the bride's home, it would be easy for you, as the bride's mother, to begin to take over the arrangements and bring some sanity to the excitement.
Your actual responsibilities are to see that the wedding is a total reflection of what your daughter wants for her wedding day. That includes keeping her tastes in colors, flowers, food, music, her choice of wedding dress and the very tone of the ceremony and reception foremost in your mind. While it would be easy to try to shift some of the arrangements to be more like your wedding, you have to remember that this wedding is hers.
To start with, there are five primary responsibilities for you to tend to as the Mother of the Bride:
* Helping your daughter decide on her wedding dress is a major task that will, more than likely, require both of you. If your daughter falls in love with a certain gown and it is not to your taste, it would be best to support her decision, unless it makes her look like the Bride of Dracula. If so, you are on your own.

The wedding cake as we know it now has had a long history that sent it through many transformations as it became the focus of more than a few customs and traditions.
The history of the wedding cake has been researched back to the Roman Empire, with the custom of breaking the cake over the bride's head. This practice was a symbolization of the end of the bride's virginal state and the beginning of the groom's power over her. In this case, the "cake" was actually a loaf of freshly baked barley bread.

After spending hours and hours poring over magazines, bridal books, and catalogs, and after spending so much money on the wedding dress of your dreams, it’s imperative that you take measures to preserve and maintain the beauty of your bridal gown.
It is one of the most important memorabilia of your wedding day. For whatever reason it may be, whether you want to preserve it as a family heirloom or just for a keepsake, every bride would do well to take care of the gown she was wed in.
Your wedding gown isn’t just any other piece of clothing you have. It’s a special, one of a kind dress made of special materials so it’s only fair that it be treated with special cleaning techniques as well. Most cleaners will recommend that you have your dress sent in shortly after your wedding, usually within two weeks’ time.

The tradition of offering a specific gift on a specific anniversary is thought to have started back in the middle ages in Europe. In the beginning, the only anniversaries with special gifts were the 25th anniversary and the 50th anniversary, where silver and gold wreaths were given by the husband to the wife – silver on the 25th and gold on the 50th.
I bet not that many couples made it to their 50th anniversary in the middle ages as life expectancy wasn’t all that long. Making it to the 50th was probably cause for greater celebration than even today!
Eventually, gifts were associated with the 1st, 5th, 10th, 15th, 20th, 25th, 50th and 75th anniversaries, and in 1937 the American National Retail Jeweler Association tied in a gift with the in-between years that previously didn't have gifts, plus "modernized" some of the old traditional gifts.
Here is a list of the traditional/modern gifts for each anniversary:
