Moms At Weddings: Smile-Worthy Mom Moments (PHOTOS)

By Carly Totten for Lover.ly

We love moms! There is something about Mother's Day that makes us want to say it a little louder and a whole lot more often. Even though you both may not always agree on everything, it's likely that your mom is the first person you call for everything. It's also highly likely that she's your wedding planning partner (plus your groom!), the chief bridal shower planner, and the one you will turn to most while you're getting ready for your celebration. Your groom likely also thinks very highly of his mom (and you probably do too!).

Although your wedding is a celebration of you and your new husband, we can't pass up the opportunity to highlight some of our favorite mom moments from Lover.ly.

Before jumping into the gallery, a message to all moms: thank you.

• Favorite Song

  Sing your heart out! We hope this groom's mom is singing one of their favorite songs. <a href="http://lover.ly/explore?q=photo+booth&amp;utm_source=HuffPo5-12-13mothersday&amp;utm_medium=guest&amp;utm_campaign=HuffPo5-12-13mothersday">Photo booths are a great way for guests to show off their personalities!</a> Photo by: <a href="http://r.lover.ly/redir.php/VJV34Vm2kEo_aHR0cDovL3d3dy5yYWNoZWxzbWl0aHBob3RvZ3JhcGh5LmNvbS9pbmRleDIucGhw" target="_blank">Rachel Smith</a> on <a href="http://r.lover.ly/redir.php/Cak7A9d06x6_aHR0cDovL3d3dy5zY3JhdGNod2VkZGluZ3MuY29t" target="_blank">Scratch Weddings</a> via <a href="http://lover.ly/image/207717" target="_blank">Lover.ly</a>
