MOB or MOG wearing white?***updated***

My mom is wearing white and red Shes making her dress and the top part ( goes down to just bellow her bust) will be white, and the skirt part is red.

From what I have always understood, it is rude for anyone to be in white other than the bride.

I have always heard that its rude for anyone to wear white besides the bride. My mom and his mom will def not be in white, and anyone who is may be asked to leave

Nobody but the bride wears white! (Except, of course, maybe the flower girl). That might look pretty odd in photos!

When I got married my trial run my exs step mom wore off white I was pissed big no no

It is becoming somewhat of a trend (i.e. Pippa Middleton)- and I have seen a magazine article or two about BM also wearing white. Personal preference for what the bride wants I suppose!

I was going to say no, only bride wears white and FG. But after Kelly's post, I guess I will change that to "It use to be only the bride and FG would wear white (if bride decided to put FG in white" and nobody else, but now-a-days, I suppose it's up to the bride."

My opinion is that only the bride should wear white (and again FG if wanted). The only time I think it would be okay is if white was one of your colors, but the bride decided she didn't want a white dress as I've seen wedding dresses in another color (and I'm not just talking about color added or "accented", but in a solid red, black, etc gown) and then the bride could maybe have the BMs in white.

I am going to be in white. My daughter (FG) will either be in white or red. My BMs will be in red. My stepmom and FMIL can wear whatever they want except white. I'd like them to wear something either red or black, but am not making a fuss over it. However, on my wedding website under FAQ "What is the dress attire?" - I told them the attire and then made a note underneath asking the lady guests to please not wear white or red.

Not wearing white when you are a guest is common sense, but I also wanted only my BP to be red dresses so that's why I asked no white or red.

I agree I only thought the bride was suppose to wear white. I'm a fan of this tradition. I wouldn't be happy if someone wore white to my wedding.

I agree with the others that only the bride should wear white. Though it's becoming more popular to put other people in white, I don't like it! The bride is supposed to stand out! If someone else wore white to my wedding I would be super upset.

I know it's becoming a trend but personally I think only the bride should wear white (maybe FG). I'm not even having the FG in white. I found this adorable tutu dress in my wedding colors that she'll be wearing.

OK so now I have a few of your opinions, I'll let you know the situation. My FH the youngest of two boys in the family, so FMIL does not have any daughters. FH older brother already is married, they had a destination wedding in Cuba, so FMIL didn't have the opportunity to really get all dressed up. So now FH and I are getting married, and she is so super excited about her MOG dress....more so than I was about my dress, which is super cute I think. She has been shopping for her dress since January, so 6 months as she just wants the perfect dress. Well she called last night of FH's phone while we were making dinner. FH put me on speaker phone so I could still do what I was doing and talk to her. She asked me if I could go with her this saturday to see this dress that she thinks is "the one". I told her of course I would go, and then she started to discribe the dress as she is so excited. Again cute. She tells me that it is floor length, made of satin material, strapless ....

Natacha I love that dress i wish i had a flower girl

I dont like the everyone wearing white thing my thought is who the hell is the bride in that picture

, body of the dress is a blue off white color (so looks white/grey) and an oyster waist sash. She also adds that it is on clearance from $700.00 to $100.00. I am going to wait to jump to conclusions until I actually see the dress, but to me it sounds like a discounted bridal dress, not a MOG dress…..and its white. So just in your opinion ladies, if I were to voice my opinion on Saturday about this, I wouldn’t be out of line would I?

No, just make sure you say it the right way. It sound like you are very close to her and you don't want this to ruin your relationship.

I'm assuming you don't want anyone else wearing white?

Sorry and the reason I mentioned that I had her on speaker phone was that I really wanted to correct her and say that I really didn't like the idea of her wearing white right at that moment, but FH was standing right there and didn't want to make it seem like I was trying to be mean and stomp on his moms excitment. He told me that he is super happy that I am making an effort to have some"bonding time" with his mom and it meant a lot to him. I just hope I don't have to crush her dream!

@Natacha, no I'm all about tradition and would like to be the only one in white. My FG dresses are soooo similar to yours actually!!!!

Our colors are dark purple, Orange and cream. BP is wearing the Purple and orange, and FH and I are in the cream. My flowers are even the white Cala lillis.....

Thanks for your opinions. I guess we will see what happens Saturday.

If anyone shows up wearing white to my wedding, i will kick them out lol

My MOH and the moms will all be wearing a different shade of ivory, like champagne, beige etc...

@Kelly K, who's the bride in that picture? lol, I really can't tell, I don't like the idea of anyone in the bridal party wearing white.
