Top Tips for Choosing Unique Mother of the Bride Outfits

The day and time of the wedding will certainly dictate a specific level of formal. For instance, a Sunday brunch wedding would be considered less formal than a Saturday night affair. That said, styles and formality codes have also changed over the years!

1. Consider the Formality of the Event

Capelet Keyhole Dress

This is a great way to make sure your attire complements the bridal party in all of those gorgeous pictures you will take. But remember, this doesn’t mean you have to match the bridesmaids or other family members exactly!

2. Coordinate with the Wedding Color Scheme

Special Occasion Flirty Pant Set from Draper’s & Damon’s

If there are other mothers such as the mother of the groom, you will want to make sure your outfits work together, but again, they do not have to match exactly! It is good etiquette to confer with them BEFORE making any final decisions so they don’t feel excluded or like an afterthought.

3. Confer with the other Mother(s)

4. Choose Something you Feel Comfortable In

Two Piece Dress

Separates can be a lifesaver! Even if you are set on wearing something that LOOKS like a dress, that can often be achieved with a skirt and top that work together! Wearing separates often provides extra comfort, ease of movement AND is easier to navigate when you have to use the ladies’ room!

5. Consider Separates as Well as Dresses

When shopping for your Mother of the Bride attire, don’t forget the other wedding events you may be having such as a bridal shower, rehearsal dinner, or farewell brunch.

6. Outfits for Other Wedding Events

7. Rewearability

Don’t forget to accessorize! The jewelry, shoes, and handbags you choose can elevate your attire in a snap! Many MOB’s choose to wear matching jewelry with their daughter, a wonderfully sentimental gesture, and a great way to provide cohesive elements in your attire.

8. Accessorize Accordingly
