30 Best Mother Of The Bride Gifts, Plus Tips From Wedding Pros

This gorgeous lace purse is handmade and crafted from quality materials, like vegan suede. The sequined purse is available in several colors, including Rose Gold and Champagne (pictured). For under $60, this makes for a practical and personalized gift: You’ll be able to customize its fully lined interior with a meaningful photo of you and mom.

Nothing says “I love you” quite like a flower arrangement, and this one from Ode à la Rose lasts longer than a typical bouquet. Featuring 16 preserved roses in a gorgeous wooden vase, the bouquet will be hand-delivered in a gift box with your gift note tucked inside.

The mother of the bride will probably need a lot of R&R post-nuptials. Gift her this airy, buttery body cream that’s both soothing and restorative, thanks to anti-inflammatory, antioxidant ingredients like vitamins A and E, kokum and shea butter. Violets Are Blue, a company founded by a breast cancer survivor, uses reparative natural ingredients to consciously formulate products that cater to women over 40 and those undergoing cancer treatment.

We swear by the breezy versatility and cozy softness of Favorite Daughter’s popular Collegiate Tee. This version uses the same buttery blend of cotton but with the words “Mom Of The Year” printed on the front, making for an extremely effective (and cute) thank-you gift. Not only will the mother of the bride enjoy fond memories every time she puts it on, but she’ll also have a wardrobe piece that works equally well paired with casual jeans or tucked into classic trousers and topped with a blazer.

Gifting Mom a signature scent is one of Goulding’s go-to items. Highly rated by Sephora reviewers for its variety of scents and bottle designs, this mini discovery set by Hermès features four of the designer brand’s bestselling fragrances. These include the floral and spicy Twilly d’Hermès Eau de Parfum and the woody but citrusy Eau des Merveilles.

Handmade in England, this notebook from Sloane Stationery makes for a simple but meaningful and well-crafted gift. Flip open the lizard-embossed cover—which reads “Mother of the Bride”—to reveal blank cream pages waiting to be filled with all things wedding-related, from appointment reminders to her favorite mother-daughter memories.

You can’t go wrong with a thoughtful, personalized gift that also functions as a keepsake, like this custom, hand-illustrated portrait of you and your mom. All you’ll need to provide is a photo of both of you (and other members of your family, if you wish), your frame preference and how you want the gift delivered—and the artist will take care of the rest.

We love this elegantly simple necklace from Myka because you can customize it in several ways to tailor it to Mom’s tastes. Choose from sterling silver bars plated with 18k gold (pictured), or opt for the thicker gold vermeil, rose gold plating or the un-plated sterling silver. Add a meaningful word, name, date or characters for engraving, and then your birthstone to adorn it with (or a diamond!).

What better way to indulge after the wedding bustle than a nice bath soak? Laura Mercier’s Ambre Vanille Aromatic Bath & Body Oil has a warm, calming scent that’s inherently relaxing, thanks to notes of amber and vanilla. With its mix of baobab, jojoba and French plum seed oils, the non-greasy blend works overtime to nourish her skin.
