MOB knows what to do when the bridegroom snores and when the budget has been left in the dust. Why is it that the perfect wedding gown can only be found at midnight and shared in a text? All romance is wonderful in movies and cards, but the reality is someone -- as Joe Walsh sang it -- cleans up the dog poop in the yard. And horrors! What to do when the white roses arrive the day of the wedding dead in a hot truck. The Mother of the Bride's job is to keep that bluebird of happiness flying through the wild winds of love and chance.
