About This Quote

Mother of the bride is a term often used in the wedding ceremony. The word mother in this phrase is taken out and replaced with bride. The purpose of this phrase is to ensure that the woman who will become the mother of the bride does not put any conditions or expectations on her mother’s relationship with her future husband, and that she respects and honors her mother’s relationship with her future husband.
