That was a great gift idea and I'm sure they will love it. Don't freak out if it isn't done in time. You can always give it to them at the wedding when they will be so sick of opening blenders and juicers that it will be nice to recieve something heartfelt. I know it wouldn't be as nice or thoughtful or sweet and sentimental, but I know that as I've been planning my wedding, the one thing I need more than anything and want as a gift because we will be starting a new life together soon and such, is money. You really can't go wrong with that, and if the bride and groom are on a budget, it will be greatly appreciated. If they are registered somewhere, get them something small from their registry and throw in a card with a nice chunk of cash. Registries were invented so those of us with problems such as these would have somewhere to turn. You can tell them you have a more personal gift coming, but you may even want them to recieve it in private anyway. Something that personal may be a little emotional to recieve in front of a lot of people. Good luck and tell them congrats!

Thats such a great gift that I think she should still give it to them when it's ready for now she could just pick up a nice card to give to her at the shower and just have her explain what happened. It's the thought that was put into the gift that counts not if its received on the perfect day. I'm sure the bride will understand and would probably rather wait for the really great gift rather than receive a replacement gift that maybe wouldn't have as much thought put into it.

That is unfortunate.
However...the shower is a gift, in and of itself, and not a trivial one. It's a lot of work, and often a lot of expense to host a party like this. The hostess of the shower should not be expected to give the bride a gift...she should feel entirely comfortable by giving the bride a shower, and nothing else.
Suggest that your mom give it to the bride & groom when it's ready, and otherwise, don't worry about it.

Thats a tough spot. If it in not done in time, just have your mom give her a card that says that she has something extra special, and handmade on the way, but isnt ready yet, and that she hopes that she enjoys the party she put together for her.

thats so sweet, and it sucks that its not ready yet. if she has a bridal registry somewhere she should check there. it will list everything that they want. something off there would be good, since they aready want it.
