I am getting married in September & I can't think of anything to get my mother as a thank you for being my mom & helping so much. I need something special, but nothing I have seen/thought of has seemed right.. Her mother passed away just months before she was married, so I know it means a lot to her since I'm her only daughter.. I need ideas!!! HELP!!
 
I would suggest something personal. I love this idea of personalized hankie. Surely she will be needing it the day of the wedding. Here's the link Package Selection

Otherwise, maybe you can get something embroidered, or made for her. Something with a handmade touch!

Maybe a mother/daughter spa day?? I know my mom and I would enjoy that!!

What are your mom's interests? What are her dreams? Is there somewhere to which she's always wanted to travel? What is your budget?

I would like to stay under $100.. She loves personal things.. Small things w/ big meanings.. I am having such a brain fart when it comes to this, I usually know exactly what to give her..
 
My friends gave his mom a jewelry box engraved on top with a place for a photo for their wedding a few weeks ago. It was very nice and she teared up when she got it. I would suggest Lillian Vernon or Things Remembered. There are a ton of things you can personalize at both.
 
Congratulations to you! I am getting married in November and I never gave a thought to a "gift" for my mom other than the broach (sp?) which matches our wedding theme. My parents are not financially helping since they are retired and on a fixed income. My fiance and I are paying for everything ourselves. I would love to hear anyone's thoughts on inexpensive gift ideas too.

I don't mean to change your thread. Hope this will help both of us!
 
A framed picture of the two of you together?

Or, a collage of pictures of the two of you through the years...with an inscription about how much she means to you...
