It is not customary for the groom's mother to give a gift to the bride, but on some occasions the groom's mother may have a piece of jewelry, etc., that she may want her new daughter-in-law to have. The groom's mother and father give a wedding gift and it can either be money or a gift.
In the Greek Orthodox Tradition, the father accompanies the bride to the entrance of the church, where the groom awaits with her bouquet. The groom offers the bouquet to her, and takes her right hand after her father. Bride and groom then walk together down the aisle, the groom on the right side of the bride.
