    Ah, that is a relief! I think I would be tempted to say something along the lines of 'It's so lovley to see you, I'm glad we got the chance to invite you as you as clearly you were desperate to come along'...

    Love sugarwalsh's idea! Also I would totally show the photographer a snapshot of her and ask for her to be incuded in the minimum possible number of photos! I'm peeved at some of the people I've "got" to invite to my wedding but I'm going to do that.

    Poor you and your mum though. But like others have said, you will have a great day, and she obviously can't have that great a life if this is how she behaves.
