24 *Breathtaking* Photos Of Brides Breastfeeding On Their Wedding Day

A bride has to juggle a seemingly endless array of tasks on her wedding day. From flower deliveries and remembering distant cousins' names to not tripping as they walk down the aisle, there's a lot on her plate. But these photos of breastfeeding brides take multitasking to a whole new level.

Despite the fact that women have been breastfeeding for the entirety of human history, people still often take issue with moms nursing in public. A photo of a mother breastfeeding her child in Disney World went viral in 2017 because of people in the background of the photo looking at her with disapproval, and stories like this aren't uncommon. There are laws protecting moms who breastfeed in public in 49 states in the United States (plus D.C. and the Virgin Islands), and the #normalizebreastfeeding movement has gained traction in recent years, with nursing mothers taking to social media to showcase breastfeeding as the normal, everyday task that it is.

Most breastfeeding photos take place in fairly innocuous settings, but some show moms feeding their kids in more dramatic scenarios, like these pictures of moms breastfeeding on their wedding day. Motherhood doesn't stop for any occasion, these photos are proof of that.
