Does the mother of the groom give favors to any of the wedding party?
On One Hand: Follow TraditionTraditionally, the members of the wedding party receive a gift from only the bride and groom. When following tradition, the mother of the groom is not responsible for giving gifts to any members of the wedding party. She should simply focus on her wedding responsibilities and leave gift-giving duties to the bride and groom.On the Other: Stray from TraditionAs weddings become less conventional, tradition becomes less important. If the mother of the groom feels the desire to give a gift to members of the wedding party, she should feel free. If the mother of the groom chooses to give a gift to only certain members of the wedding party, she should exchange these gifts in private.Bottom LineThere is no proper wedding etiquette regarding the mother of the groom’s decision to give gifts to members of the wedding party.
