Hanger Question

I am tossing the idea around of making/buying personalized wire hangers for my (3) bridesmaids and myself. Then I got to thinking... I'm not having a flower girl, and the "mother" of the bride has chosen not to participate. Should I go ahead and make/buy the mother of the groom one as well? I really don't think it's necessary, but I wouldn't want her to feel left out. And really, whats ONE more hanger?

What would you all do?

Also, if I DO end up having one for her, what name do I put on there? I plan on having all the BM's first names on theirs, and mine will say "Mrs. FI'sLastName." Would I put her first name on it? Mother of the Groom? (Though that last one seems a little long to spell out in wire)

Re: Hanger Question

  • I think she'll understand that its just something for you and the bridesmaids. If you're super close it might be a nice gesture but I don't think its necessary.
  • I think it depends on when you plan on presenting your BMs hangers to them.  Will your FMIL be around for it?  If so, and you think she will feel left out, then I think it would be a lovely gesture to have one for her as well.  

    I would have it say "mother of the groom".  You'll want to be the only "Mrs. FI's Last Name", and her first name seems too casual to me (IMO).  I did a google image search for "mother of the groom" hangers, so here is an idea of how it would look:
