Mother Of The Groom

This is just a suggestion, it`s normal he would feel closer to his adoptive mom but the real mom should be there too. What you could do is get the two mothers together and maybe make them wear the same dress and the place where the mother is supposed to sit, both of them should sit there. Guests may be surprised but i`m guessing you invited family and close friends so they probably know the story.

Well, his adoptive Mom has raised him and should be treated as though she was his biological mother. Now as far as his biological mother goes don`t make her feel left out. You should give her a role that makes her feel somewhat important. Like have her hand out the wedding favors and make sure guest sign the guest book. Then at the reception have your husband do a mother and son dance with the two of them separately of course. I hope I have been some help. Also if at all possible get the 2 moms together before the wedding gets here. If you don`t you might have a fiance and 2 moms that feel very uncomfortable. And have there minds on something else besides the wedding.

Crystal-now how many MOG`s do you know that are in charge of something like the guest book or favors?! That would
Be a let-down for her! Yes, they are both important jobs. For FRIENDS.
Actually, the MOG doesn`t really do much of anything, except sit in the pew of honor. And, stand in the receiving line.
Just have them both escorted like normal. Have the adoptive mother escorted first & then, the biological mother. I wouldn`t
`make` them get matching dresses. Yuck! You want them to have their own style.
Put both names in the program-adoptive first, then biological. Introduce them accordingly.
This should be a nice thing to do. Of course, invite the biological mother to any & all showers, parties & RD that you have.
Good Luck!

Why not have the Best Man escort them BOTH down the isle? One on each side of him! They both have a place of Honor in his life - one as giving him life and one as bringing him life to an adult.
