Getting Ready Robes

EGD, on June 7, 2022 at 10:26 AM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 7

I'm probably overthinking this, but would still appreciate advice Smiley smile


I got all my bridesmaids getting ready robes for the morning of the wedding, I got myself a white one, and then the bridesmaids have coordinating colors with what their wearing on the wedding day, MOH in Dusty Rose and the rest of the BM's in Dusty Sage.


My mom will be with us for getting ready so I want to also get her a robe. But I'm struggling with what color to get her, she's wearing Navy to the wedding so I was thinking of getting her a Navy Robe but worried it doesn't fit the light color's of the rest of the girls, they do have a light grey and dusty blue that I like.


I will preface this by saying, yes this is 100% for a photo op, my photographer (which we originally only booked for 8 hours and was planning on having him arrive later in the afternoon) recently reached out that he took a "story telling" class and wanted to use our wedding to take what he's learned and apply it, so he has offered to be at our wedding all day (roughly 13 hours) to capture our wedding at no additional charge, so getting ready will be heavily photographed.

    You know I know the Bride is supposed to be the only one in white, but my Mom’s marriage is an inspiration to me so I got her Ivory. I wanted her to feel elegant!

    I actually LOVE that, I could do the champagne cause it's close enough to white (my wedding dress is actually more of a champagne than white), and it will still allow both of us to stand out.

    I always said my mom and dad's marriage is what I base marriage off of, it'd be a nice nod.

    Thank you so much!

    Yes! We nodded to both of our parents throughout the ceremony and had a table set up next to the cake with their wedding pictures. It was awesome to acknowledge them.

    I think the dusty blue color would look nice! It'll coordinate with your bridesmaids' lighter colors and it's similar to the color of her dress.

    Hi and Congratulations if you have a robe in the dusty blue then you can give her that one. Do you know your moms size some of them have fit most or all in one. And I'm sure that it will go perfectly with the rest of the ladies And I also bought robes for my ladies too in my bridal party so no worries
