What colors would be appropriate for a mother of the bride/mother of the groom?
My wedding is labor day weekend I was curious as to what colors my mother and mother in law to be should wear for my wedding? My bridesmaids will be in a color called Olivine (from David's Bridal) and will be wearing gold shoes, and my website is both the olive green and a very, very pale pink.
Which colors do you think would be appropriate?
The mother of bride can wear a little more fancy and flashy (however, never upstage the bride) but mother of the Groom should look nice but not better than mother of the bride. So if the mother of the bride is wearing a long dress with sleeves the mother of the groom should not show up in a short skirt with glitter. Both should NEVER wear white! If they wore the green or pink that would be great! However, having said all that....it really not that big of deal. Run it all by the bride to get the ok.
