My DD will YIH soon be a Kallah.
B”H she and I are close and the boy has a wonderful relationship with his mom (as does my DD).

For men, there are so many kavodim to hand out. Signing the Ketuba/Sheva brachot/eydi yichud….

My DD has an amazing mentor with whom she is very close. She would love to give her a special kavod. Can anyone think of anything? I feel like giving her husband a kavod is not the same as giving HER.

A gift and nice card! More meaningful than a bracha by the chuppah. Iyh by her child’s bris she can give her kvatir.

Perhaps you could invite her to sit with you, next to the kallah, for the bedeken. Your daughter might appreciate her presence as well.

My mother was niftar while I was still single. It was very special to have a mentor, who had done so much for me, take my mothers place at that time.

Thank you for all who gave recommendations. In this situation, they are not going to work. Looking for other ideas.
Thank you

I hear what you are saying. Our DD's Shadchan was absolutely amazing in helping bring about DD's shidduch. We sent her Shadchanus and a gift, and gave her husband a Kibbud at the Chuppah. I wish we could have given one to her!

Your DD can choose to dance with her at the wedding early on, during the family lineup.
Otherwise, I can't think of very much....

Dancing early on, first person after family, like Chayalle said.
Seat her with your family if you think she'd enjoy that.

Flowers/chocolates are really nice.

Invite her to sheva brochos and mention her in a sheva brochos speech? If your husband will be speaking, maybe he can thank her on behalf of the kallah/family.
