I'm the Mother of the Bride. My oldest daughter will be getting married in Oct. My middle daughter is the Maid of Honor, the youngest daughter will be a bridesmaid and my son will be a groomsman. I wanted a dress that would work well with the bridal party colors especially for family photos.
I'm one of these people that knows what she likes so I wasn't worried about finding a dress. The MOG is more indecisive and has been so anxious that my daughter told her to just go ahead and get a dress. Well she chose champagne. Now I don't know what to do - is my dress too similar? Should I also go with a lighter color? The MOG is Italian, with olive skin - I'm a blonde, very fair skin. Usually light colors wash me out.
The bridesmaids will be wearing the dress on the right in the first uploaded picture
The dress I selected is the second uploaded picture.
So what do you think? Too close???

Re: [MomofdaBride] I'm worried that my dress is "too" like the bridesmaids

You want to choose a color that complements the bridal party but not too much like the bridal party color.
Here is a beautiful color that would compliment the party and your skin tone: Platinum, Charcoal Grey, and Chocolate Brown or if you want to stay in the purple family try a darker plum, or Pink.
