Similarly one may ask, what should the mother of the bride wear?Traditionally, the mother of the bride’s dress should complement the wedding party’s colors (though not necessarily match). Or if her girls are going in cobalt blue, a navy dress would pair perfectly. There’s only one color not to wear say the experts: avoid anything in the same color as the bride’s dress.One may also ask, what is expected of the mother of the bride? The parents of the bride are the hosts of the wedding, and the wedding weekend. The father of the bride and mother of the bride duties include welcoming guests when they arrive in town, and host events over the weekend. They may include a welcome dinner, round of golf, a spa day, and the post-wedding farewell brunch. Correspondingly, what should the mother of the bride wear to an afternoon wedding? The length of the mother of the bride’s dress depends on the timing and formality of the wedding. For a daytime celebration, a dressy suit or cocktail dress is appropriate, with a skirt that goes to the knee.Does the bride pick out the mother’s dress?A: Traditionally the Mother of the Bride chooses her dress first and notifies the Mother of the Groom so they can co-ordinate their outfits. You don’t want the mothers looking at odds with each other because one is dressed more formally or they’re wearing clashing colors.
