The custom is to designate as godmothers the mothers of both bride and groom, who will undoubtedly help them with the details of the wedding, from the decoration to the wardrobe. Of course, you can also choose an aunt, a sister or even a friend. The important thing is to choose a person who, no matter what happens, you can trust blindly that he or she will be there.

How to thank them for so much love and commitment? Although you can always dedicate a few words to them in the main speech, there are also very meaningful gifts that will speak for themselves.

1. A trousseau accessory

Whether it's the veil, the bouquet of flowers, a rosary, the headdress that will accompany your hairstyle, if you are the bride, or the boutonniere, the handkerchief or the necklaces, if you are the groom, the godmother will be moved to tears if you decide to give her any of the accessories of her bridal outfit. And although it is difficult for them to part with any of them, the truth is that they could not fall into better hands.

2. A bouquet of flowers

Although the bride is the one who carries the bouquet, the godmother deserves more than anyone else to receive some flowers Surprise her with a bouquet of roses, calla lilies, peonies or find her a bouquet of wild flowers, if you know she will like it. Accompany the bouquet with a special dedication.

If you prefer the gift to last, frame a photo with your godmother Whether you choose to create a collage, find old pictures to create a collage, get an illustrator, or ask your photographer to take a portrait of you on your wedding day, whatever you choose, you'll give him or her a gift to treasure.

4. A jewel

What could be better than to be united by the same jewel? Choose a fine chain, a medal, or a bracelet so that you both have the same No problem if you are the bride or groom. And just as you will do with the rings, you can inscribe your initials to personalize it even more.

5. A blank album

Although it may seem simplistic to you, it is a good idea to to mark the beginning of this new stage If it's the mother, she will be very happy to complete the album with analog photos, whether they are from the past or more recent captures. Also, add a childhood picture on the first page along with a nice phrase or characteristic. She will love it!

6. Spa Invitation

I'm sure the godmother accompanied them every step of the way and probably took care of a lot of details. How to reward her? With an invitation to enjoy a full spa day. It never hurts to relax And even less if it comes with massages, jacuzzi, aromatherapy and even chocolates. Now, if you're not convinced about the spa, you can also treat her to dinner for two. Mother-daughter? Mother-son? It's always the best plan.

7. A plant

They represent life and oxygenate the environment, besides being very decorative. If the godmother is a plant lover, then don't think twice and get her one to water and take care of it every day. Symbolically, even if you are no longer there, there will always be something of you in the maternal house. It can be an orchid, a lucky bamboo or a succulent, among other options.

The godmothers will have a fundamental role in the wedding day, as in the new life they have decided to undertake, and even more if they are your mothers, because they will never lack advice, lessons or words of affection, which will arrive just when you need them the most.
