Mother’s Day 2026

“Throughout my life, my mom has played the role of my mother, my father, and my best friend. She set the bar for unconditional love and raised me to settle for nothing less. It seemed only appropriate that she walk me down the aisle to marry the man who shows me that same unconditional love. I am so grateful that she played such a major part of my wedding day, the wedding planning, and my life as a whole.”

“One of the moments that stayed with me most was realizing I had not one, but three “moms” by my side—my mom, my stepmom, and my mother-in-law. Each of them has shaped me in her own way, and seeing them all there felt incredibly special—like I somehow hit the jackpot and ended up with more love than I know what to do with.”

“Moms are simply the best. Every event or celebration I’ve ever had throughout my life, my mom has always been the first one to come with a vision and help bring it to life. For my 30th birthday, she wanted to make it all a surprise for me since I’m usually the one hosting and planning everything for everyone else. She truly went above and beyond — creating special decorations, making sure my favorite fall flowers (white mums, of course) were everywhere, and transforming the space into the most beautiful fall soirée oasis I’ll never forget. It was thoughtful & warm in every way. I’ll forever be grateful for the love and care she poured into making it so special.”

“These photos perfectly capture what my mom means to me. From buttoning up my dress before the ceremony to being by my side and making me laugh moments after I got married, she was my calm in every moment of the day. Her love, support, and steady presence are gifts I’ve leaned on my whole life, and I’m endlessly grateful for her.”

“I can't remember ever dreaming of my wedding as a little girl. But what I do remember is months BEFORE I was engaged, calling my Mom and asking her if I was crazy for putting a deposit on my wedding venue for the following year. Knowing my boyfriend and I were on the way to an impending engagement, she enthusiastically agreed and even paid herself! This small example of her selflessness and eagerness to please extended throughout my entire wedding planning process. My Mom was my #1 supporter.”
