mob Dress Color...i need help! What color did you choose?

View Quoted Comment That copper is going to look so fabulous!!!

I I didn’t tell our moms what to wear neither color, style or fabric. I only asked for no white and no blush since it was our bridesmaid color. It was all up to them to pick. My mom wanted my help choosing and we went with a no color in mind and she bought what she liked in a royal blue which was beautiful for our destination wedding. My mother in law was planning on going with blue but given my mom and my then fiancé was blue she was hesitant so she went with a yellow color which again worked for our outdoor destination wedding. None of the fabric and style match. I think is best to let them wear what they’re comfortable with and what looks good on them. The colors you have are beautiful but doesn’t go well with every skin color. Based on your color scheme I’ll probably do silver better if you really want them to match.

My mom and FMIL thought they had to match the bridesmaids and groomsmen. Wasn't sure if that was an actual rule but I let them know they had full reign. I requested that they not show up in an obnoxious traffic cone orange or white but it's their dress. They can wear what they want.

View Quoted Comment If I can find it lol! It's been tough.

Hey sis, from what I hear, your mom is to match the Bridesmaids and his mom matches the Groomsmen or whatever color the Groom is wearing. These are beautiful colors.

View Quoted Comment I think you will be able too...once start looking now at regular sites like Macy's, Rebdolls, Fashion Nova and I say the last 2 sites because they have nice formal dresses on there now too and for the holidays they will for sure have some nice stuff with those metallics. I was shocked because they usually sell trendy stuff.

View Quoted Comment Hey hey...so I didn't even look at it that way but that's a good idea. Only thing is because the girls and him are already in green, I don't want to put my mom in green too 😟 If my FMIL matched the guys she'd be in black and I don't think she wants to do that either but I'll ask lol. Her and my mom both love some shimmer so that's why I thought gold because they can really have fun with it and pop! Thanks for that idea though.

View Quoted Comment Ok cool I'll check those out! I loved some of the ones I found on lulu's but it's like if we really wanted them, then we would have to get them like right now. Not your traditional bridesmaids site with an abundance of dresses, colors and sizes 😟 but I'm hopeful lol. I've never heard of rebdolls, will check it out for sure. Thanks hun!

Oh ok I see. Well put one of them in like a Champagne gold and the other in rose gold or gold. It will work out. Since they both like to shimmer, that is the best way.

View Quoted Comment Have your looked at ASOS? They have forest green and a decent selection too.

let me know if you find heels. I’ve checked everywhere so far with no luck.

View Quoted Comment I think not wearing white is a reasonable request but I wouldn’t care if someone wore red. I’ve been married for over a year now and don’t even notice what people are wearing when I look at my wedding pictures.

View Quoted Comment Yeah we're going to go with gold tones. I talked to my mom about it today and the first thing she said was ohhhh I love gold lol! I knew she would though lol.

View Quoted Comment Omg yessssss I love all the dresses on there. I was saying earlier that if we find one that we all love, we need to get them now as they won't be available next year. And will do, my dress comes in February so I need to have found them by then.

Lol that's great. I am sure it will all turn out beautiful.

Brides have nothing to do with choosing clothing for mothers or father's, or other family or guests. Only BM, MOH, GM, BM and children in the wedding party. All others should dress the same level of formality as the wedding party, or one step down. So you tell people how formal the wedding is. Mom's don't match anyone , but they can wear totally different or similar colors to WP. Whatever clothes they choose. Mothers , or parents, are traditionally the last seated, before the procession starts. Not WP. Any mother or father who does walk down with the bride, does not need to match bridesmaids or groomsmen. Because they are family, not your attendants. Independent adults who dress themselves , for the occasion .

View Quoted Comment Where did you hear this? It has never been part or usual practice for weddings. Mothers are not Wedding party. Not coordinated with any part of bridal party colors or style, or any " wedding colors" chosen by the bride.

I heard it from a few older ladies that claim they used to "coordinate weddings". You know those people that always want to tell you what you want for your own wedding.

View Quoted Comment Definitely a local thing. In most families I know, and weddings as covered in any etiquette book, the usual etiquette is that brides are like the princesses in a royal family. They choose their own attire. May confer with the prince on his ( but he chooses). But brides never, ever dictate what her parents, the King and Queen, or the Prince's parents, presumably royalty, wear. They may choose their attendants' attire, of course. And Prince chooses for his. And even Kings and queens these days may not choose what guests wear, only dictate the formality. . . .Also covered in family etiquette: you never tell your family elders how to dress or behave. My family is big on this. If I told my mom what color or style to wear, or my mother in law, there would be no fuss or yelling. Either would simply look at me, and I would burst into flames.

This is news to me. I want my Mom and MIL to wear whatever the desire. I really don't care.
