Your wedding is a big day indeed – not just for you and your spouse-to-be, but for the other people invited as well. And out of everyone there, your mother will definitely go through a lot of the emotions you may experience with you.
Traditionally, the mother of the bride is the hostess of the wedding reception. While this custom may not be followed these days, she will still be one of the most important guests at the wedding. Naturally, she will want to look great – and the following tips could help her truly feel like the mother of the most beautiful girl in the room!
She doesn’t have to dress like it’s the 1950s (except, of course, if she wants to do this or if your wedding actually follows a 50s’-related theme). Other than that, she is allowed to be as modern as she wants to be.
She should not leave the suit at home. Suits can be stylish and elegant and come in a variety of styles and colors. There are plenty of suits that can flaunt any kind of body shape – and she’ll look gorgeous wearing one of these!
She should play with color. There is absolutely no reason she should rule out wearing bright or pastel colors – they will make her look younger, dazzling and beautiful. Of course, if she wants to go for a black dress, that’s elegant and beautiful, that's a decision for the bride and mother of the bride to make together.
The hair and the jewelry really add to the look of the outfit – make sure to have a trial run with different hair styles and accessories. This will make the day of decision easy as you will already know exactly what looks great! The right hairstyle and accessories really add to the overall beauty of the wedding!
