It's natural for mums to get a bit wobbly when their little girl prepares to walk down the aisle.
But if tears are shed, they're usually happy ones, and they make for fabulously heartening photos.
Here are some beautiful snaps that all brides, brides-to-be and their beloved mums will love...
This mum whose smile brightened the whole church
This mum who showed her love (without messing up her girl's makeup)
This mum who protects her girl in the most important way!
The mum who knows you'll always be her little girl
The mum who needs a bit of comfort
This one too...
This mum whose pride shines through
And this one...
This mum who tried to keep it together, but couldn't quite manage it...
And this one...
