My son is getting married end of July. Bride is white and all others are in a medium pink. MOB is wearing a pink skirt, pink jacket with a pink or white camisole. I have picked out a high/low drape neck tea length solid color dress in pink. BUT, someone said I shouldn't wear pink. So my alternative is a pale aqua color, which I would look better in. Is aqua ok or should I stay with the pink?????

Dear MOG,
Actually the pink would be better than the aqua only because you are supposed to compliment and blend with the MOB. The problem here is that you probably should have found an outfit with a pattern if her's is solid. If her camisole is white, that could help, but your's is still solid. Problem.
If you could find a jacket with a pattern to wear over the dress, you should be fine. What you are looking for is not to look as if you are twins, trying to match.
Good luck with the hunt! Rebecca Black, Etiquette Now

You would have to be the judge here. Unless this is an all white wedding, which it isn't, the mothers should stay away from white. But, a white background is not bad--if it is not too much white. If the colors look good with the pink of the MOB's dress, you're fine. So, this is something that you will have to decide.
Your message relays your stress. Relax. It will be fine. Perhaps you could send a picture of your dress to the MOB so she can compare it with hers. Or, you could ask her about meeting if you two are close. You may be just fine. Rebecca Black, Etiquette Now
