Should groom's mom be invited dress shopping?

Only if you want her to come but you dont have to invite her

My MIL didn't have any girls, and this was her only son, so she was excited to be a part of the dress shopping. I went to a lot of places, so I went 1st with just my mom. Had one shopping day just MIL. and then one weekend, had them both together and that was the day I coincidentally found "The One" with both of them watching. It is up to you, and if you think your mom would be hurt if you are sharing that moment or if she would be ok if you did like me. Have fun, Congrats.

My FH is one of 2 sons. I'm very close with his mom. When I went dress shopping my mom, his mom and my grandmother came with me. It's up to you really. Who ever you feel closest to.

That is absolutely up to you, if you have a close relationship with her I don't see why not. Once our parents meet, for my next fitting I might take FH's mom with me, she's very cool, I have a good relationship with her. On the side, just remember to keep it to a minimum when going dress shopping, the more people you bring is not the better in this case.

Well it is up to you. It depends on if your close with her, or if its the type that you just want to get to know her.

For me, I'm inviting my FMIL to go with my mom, my gram, my bridesmaids, my M-O-H, and me! I am very close with her and tell her everything and so she knows all about my wedding and our plans! I am more looking to have my mom and her hopefully bond a little more!

I want to go only with my mom because my mom and I are just extremely close. I’m not nearly as close with my MIL. My fiancé really disagrees and that I should bring his mom because it would mean a lot to her and he wants us to be closer, but you can’t force a relationship to be close and we just naturally aren’t. She feels left out. My fiancé’s parents were extremely close with the FIL’s parents and they want me to have that with them but I keep thinking that it should happen naturally. I don’t appreciate the pressure. I almost feel like they expect us to be as close as they were with FIL parents. That’s not how it works as it should be natural. I don’t really trust MIL... there has always been something in the back of my mind that she’s not a safe person...many reasons why. I feel like maybe we would be closer if the expectation was not there so that it would be natural. I’m getting annoyed because I feel like my fiancé puts his mom above me and doesn’t have the maturity to understand and respect all of this. There has been a lot of drama with them and me as well as my fiancé and me. it sucks that I’m not happy during this engagement & a lot of the time I wonder if he will ever love me the way I want & deserve. I wish he would love me better and respect me. I know I’m ranting on and on. Thank you for listening. I hope that my fiancé stops being pushy and forcing me to do things that I’m not comfortable with. I can’t keep apologizing for her feelings being hurt. No matter what I do or say it’s never good enough. I wonder if anyone else has gone through something similar?
