Help! What to do??

I have my mom as my MOH but my fiance and I still want to have the mothers go up and light the individual candles for the unity candle; is there any way to do this? Has anyone else ever had their mother as their MOH and done this? I have no idea lol! Thanks!

Re: Help! What to do??

  • I see no reason she can not go up from the line of BM and light a candle and then stand back with ethe bm
  • So the mothers do that after the maids walk down?
  • I have only seen it such that the candles are lit mid ceremoney from a mini votive and then handed to teh bride and groom who then light the center candle together. If the bride is there then the bm are already there
  • The mothers usually are seated just before the bridal party enters. I would have the groom's mom seated, then have your Mom come in and together they light the candles. When complete, your mom goes back to be in the wedding party. The bridal party would come in. It should go really smooth.
    Let the Lord Lead... and follow Him.
  • Really...ok, will see what works/looks best :-) cool, thanks!
