Emotional Moments After the Veil Down: The Heartwarming "Last Hug" Between Mother and Bride ♡

The emotional scene of "I hope you find happiness ♡".

The beginning of the ceremony.

The veil down performed by the mother as the "final preparation for her daughter."

It holds the meaning of protecting the bride from evil, and it's a very mystical moment that makes those watching sit up straight.

During the veil down, it is the ultimate happiness to hear words like "I hope you find happiness" or "You look beautiful" from your mother.

(Just imagining it brings tears to my eyes.....)

At that moment, there may be times when you are overwhelmed with emotion and embrace each other,

that hug has become so popular for its emotional impact that recently, there has been a "staging" where it is scheduled in advance, saying, "Let's do this ahead of time! Let's hug!"

The name is "Last Hug."

After the veil down, the name of the embrace between mother and daughter is called "Last Hug."

It connects with the veil down, which is "the last preparation a parent can give to their daughter," representing the "final hug."

Just like the veil down, let's convey feelings such as "You've grown up," "You will be happy," and "Thank you for everything" during this moment ♡

Incorporating this as a planned act not only becomes deeply moving but also has practical benefits; for example,

"I wanted to hear a word from my mother, but she said nothing!"

"I longed to embrace each other in a moment of overwhelming emotion, but it seems my mother wasn't into that, so it didn't happen!" This way, you can avoid being shocked.

From the guests' perspective, they won’t know that it was a planned act.

They might feel moved and think, "What a close and wonderful family love....!"

In parent-child relationships where hugging has never been done, it may feel awkward, but it will create lasting memories ♡

What is the flow of the Last Hug?

Here is the flow during the ceremony.

① Entry of the pastor

② Entry of the groom

③ Entry of the bride

④ Have the mother do the veil down while standing in the closest position

⑤ [This is where the Last Hug happens ♡]

⑥ Begin walking down the aisle with the father, who has been standing by

⑦ The father and bride walk together to the groom

It seems there are brides who also have a Last Hug with their father at this point (⑥).

That is also a wonderful staging ♩

*Sometimes, there may be a handshake or hug between the bride's father and the groom with the meaning of "Nice to meet you!"

If we were to name that, perhaps it would be "First Hug"....!!??

A wonderful staging ♡

In the ceremony, receiving a hug from the mother after the veil down [Last Hug] and hugging before passing the baton to the groom after walking the aisle with the father [Last Hug] as well.

In terms of time, the two hugs should take less than 10 seconds combined.

But if you pour your feelings into it, it will surely become a wonderful moment and a memorable one. So, brides who are about to have their ceremony, please take this as a reference ♡
