Wedding Expert Minute Tip 25 - How to Pick a Dress for the Mother of the Bride

Previous	Next
In a wedding ceremony, a woman who is important as the bride herself is her mother. And what she has to wear is as much a big concern as the choice of the bridal gown. However, mother of the bride dresses should not be as glamorous as your bridal dress or you'll be overshadowed. Here are tips to follow in choosing a mother of the bride dress: 1. Pick a dress that matches your mother's style. Is your mom fond of wearing dresses that fit her age? Or does she prefer to wear the younger, trendier fashion? You know your mom better. Pick a style that's just right for her. 2. Make sure the dress hides her flaws but highlights her assets. Skinny mother of brides won't have any problem wearing anything at all. If your mom is on the slender side, find suitable dresses for her that will highlight her curves. But if she's a little big on the midsection, try to find clothes that will hide the flab but will still make her look elegant. 3. Choose a color that coordinates well with the bridesmaids. Mother of brides should wear dresses in colors other than white or black. The best color choice for her is the shade the complements the bridesmaids' dresses, not clash against them.

Hi Katarina,

Just thought you would like to see pictures of the dresses that you altered. The dresses were perfect. You can see Rebecca's maid of honour dress along with the other bridesmaids. You can also see what my daughter Candice's wedding dress looked like.

The wedding was on August 14th and it was a most beautiful day.

Thank you so much for your wonderful work. You made us look so good. In fact one of my coworkers wants to buy the same dress that I had.

I will refer people to Best for Bride and to you.

Many thanks
Janet Kamienik

Hey you guys, take a look!
It was a fantastic day and everyone said I looked amazing and I felt like a real princess for a day.
I'm soooo glad you had this dress, its exactly what I wanted.
The 'shrug', it didn't have arms, it just hung down, looked really cool. It looked like a shawl only it stayed on and was comfortable and covered my arms. It was perfect.
I havn't got the official wedding pics back but thought I'd send this one.

Thanks again!
Mrs.Jodi Bazzul

My name is Elaine and I purchased my dream wedding dress from Best for Bride. The service I received from my very first visit to every time I went back was just amazing. They were all so supportive, helpful, honest and really had an eye for seeing the vision I was trying to find. They made me feel like a princess and really helped me with my search for my dream gown. When I did find "the dress" they were just as happy and excited as my family and friends were, they were the best goup of ladies to have with me at that moment. The customer service at Best for Bride was no comparison to any of the other stores I had been to, and ultimately, is why I kept going back and found my wedding gown there.

Thanks so much ladies, it was the best experience, and just the experience I hoped for.
Elaine
