Fashion for the Mothers

When it comes to choosing the mother of the bride's and groom's attire for the wedding, this can be a touchy subject. You want them to wear one thing and they may want to wear something completely different. The best way to handle this is compromise. Let the mothers be themselves but guide their choice with a color palette or choice of style. It’s your day but they have to be comfortable with their attire as well. The best way to find the right dress is communication. If you have a certain color in mind, let them know upfront. Don’t wait until they go shopping to hit them with this news. Also ask the mothers what they had in mind and share your ideas as well. You are bound to come up with something you both like. Dress shopping can be a fun day of mother and daughter time or a good time to get to know your future mother in law a little better. Go shopping, have a nice lunch and most importantly, have fun with it. Here are some mother of the bride and groom dresses I love and I hope you love them to!

I couldn't resist posting this picture. I thought this would be the perfect dress for that sassy, fashionista mother!! I know some are totally against black for weddings but this dress is so beautiful! (photos 1-7 are courtesy of Nordstrom, photo 8 courtesy of Real Talk of NY)

Happy Planning & Happy Mother's Day!!
