Before you start tackling the tasks of your wedding ceremony, sit down with your mother and have a pleasant discussion about the role you want her to play in planning the wedding ceremony. This is the time to clear away boundaries (if any exist). Or else, you may feel exasperating for the next nine months, making decisions that you don’t want to be made, on your behalf. Let her know the role properly, and how much you love & appreciate her.
