     MOG November Wedding  

Bridesmaids wearing short pink dresses, Maid of Honor and MOB wearing long dresses. MOB probably wearing a light color. I've mentioned that pale colors wash me out- I've got silvery salt & pepper hair. Bride keeps telling me to wear whatever I want because her mom may still be looking in September. Wedding dress is simple but elegant ivory. I know the rules about complimenting the bridal party, but I'm getting conflicting advice re: length, colors and what constitutes too fancy. Please help.

Congratulations on your son's wedding! Your dress should be the same length and formality as MOB. As to the color, the etiquette dictates that MOB selects her color first, then MOG selects her color to complement MOB's dress. So, it looks like you have to wait until September or earlier, when MOB selects her dress, to make your move! Don't worry: come back to the forum and post your question when you know the color of her dress: we'll come to the rescue!!!

Thanks so much; I'll be back. I guess I'm a little anxious, and it's fun to look- can you tell he's my first?

Don't worry, everything will be fantastic and you will see how much you will enjoy the wedding! As legendary Prime Minister of England Sir Winston Churchill once said: "Courage!!!!"
