Happy Mother's Day: Sweet Mum Moments from Real Weddings

An photographical ode to the motherly heroes!

Mother's Day is the perfect time to pay tribute to the main lady in your life, whoever that is. So, whether you have a mum, you are a mum, you're missing your mum, you've got a mum-like figure, a grandmother, a mother-in-law, or maybe you're a mum-to-be, we wanted to share some of our favourite mum moments from real weddings. These shots might inspire your own wedding day photography, or they might just give you the feels, and make want you to call your mother! Either way, we enjoyed compiling them, even if we did get a little bit teary, so we hope you have fun browsing these real wedding mum moments!
