In a Catholic wedding, who usually offers the Blessed Mother flowers?

Is it the bride, the brides mother, etc? Or do i just pick someone to give flowers to her.

In a Catholic wedding, who usually offers the Blessed Mother flowers?
the bride does it and is usually escorted by someone (maid of honor)...i don't think the mom and bride should do this together since the bride has already been "given away" (although it's a nice thing to do)...the bride and groom going together is very nice and symbolic, but i think this part of the ceremony is meant for the future wife and mother to take a moment and pray to the Virgin Mary for guidance, etc.
Reply:Bride and bride's mother both can do it, or just the bride, or the bride and whomever or just even the flowergirl.
Reply:I've seen the couple do it together.
Reply:The bride and groom do it together.
Reply:The bride.
Reply:My friend was recently married and both she and her groom walked over to the statue with flowers. During this time, another of our friends sang. They had thought about having their mothers accompany them as well, but in the end decided on just the two of them.



It's your wedding. You can have it anyway that you want it to be - there is no right or wrong. You could have song sang, music played, or a poem/hymn read during this time. It's your choice because its your day =) Enjoy!
Reply:I have only seen it with both the bride and groom.
Reply:I went to one recently were the bride and groom did and then their parents did.....
Reply:Usually its the bride.



I am getting married in March and I will offer the flowers while being escorted by the groom. My uncle (who has a phenomenal voice) will be singing the Ave Maria.
Reply:we did the bride and groom. My husband and I went up and prayed w/her and walked over to her during the time when the father said it was time to do so....





She's our Blessed Mother... I'm sure that's appropriate....



My brother and sis in law did the same... Congratulations
Reply:for me, it will be most appropriate if both parties, the bride and the groom offers the flowers. so both can have Blessed Mother's blessing, and while offering, both can say their little prayers to start their married life praying together...why ask someone to do the offering if the celebration really refer to your own special occasion? i think, it is best, like a respect to the lady of the house....
Reply:There's no set rules as to exactly who leaves flowers for the Blessed Virgin. Often times it is the Bride who leaves her bouquet, but anyone can do it.
Reply:The bride and groom.
Reply:The bride does it. She can be escorted by someone...I had my sister (maid of honor) go with me to do it.
Reply:I'm Catholic and just got married in the church.

My husband and I gave the bouquet to the Blessed Mother.

I thought it was suppose to be the bride %26amp; groom because you are asking for he blessing in having children and taking care of them.



Just a suggestion, when we were offering the Blessed Mother the bouquet, our singer sang Ava Maria.
