My eldest son is getting married in August ("what? you can't possibly be old enough to have a son that old" I hear you say... ), so this will make me Mother-Of-The-Groom....
Now, the last wedding that I went to was mine (very informal) & the previous one would of been my Uncles when I was about 15! So I really don't have a clue as to what I should be doing/wearing/saying....
I really don't want to let my son down on his big day (I'm actually a very shy person, & I get very panicky/flustered when I have to meet new people & with large social gatherings), so I've been browsing the internet for clues - but it would be soooooo much better if you lovely people of Stafford could give me some advice - what do I wear, what should I be doing, what should I do with my hair, wear a hat? fascinator? What about gifts? How involved should I be? what should I be offering to do? HEEEEELLLLLPPP!!!!
Mostly my son & future daughter in law seem to have everything sorted & booked already - they are getting married at Baden Hall in Eccleshall if that's any clue as to what the wedding will be like - but no-ones given me a clue as to what's expected of me! Aggggghhh I don't feel like I'm grown up enough for this at all!
