You’re now the mother of the bride!Definetly – the day might be all about the bride and her big dress, but as the mother of the bride or groom – you need to shine too.
The moms need starting to shop as early as possible – but not until after the bride has selected her gown and the bridesmaid dresses. While you’re deciding on a gown,maybe you will want to discuss some things with your daughter.Once this has been done, the bride will discuss her preferences of lengths, colors and styles with her mother or both mothers.If you’re not satisfied with the style she suggests, let her know and work out a compromise.It is her day – but the moms have to be comfortable too.
Here is your guide to selecting mother of the bride dresses and mother of the groom dresses:
The first thing you must do before you start looking at pictures of dresses is to sit down with your son and future daughter-in-law. Find out what the formality of the event will be, and what wedding colors they’ve chosen. Mother of the grooms should never wear the same color as the bridesmaids but you also don’t want the color of your dress to clash with the wedding party!
Everyone has their own preferences, and any color can really be worn if the bride and moms agree on it .That is to say, most would advice against these hues:
White or Ivory – (don’t compete with the bride)
Black – (don’t appear as if in mourning)
Red – (don’t be too flashy)
After you’ve found out what the mother of the bride and the wedding party will be wearing, it’s time for the most important part! Now you get to flip through magazines and walk through bridal salons or department stores, searching their racks for something you love! But also consider what type of fabric you want to wear. If it’s a fall wedding, you might want a heavier fabric, while a nice sheer and shimmery fabric might be perfect for an outdoor summer wedding.
