     hi. Newbie here  

First, I'm sorry about the name. Every name I entered was already used. I finally just looked at my computer and put that name in Blush

To the point: I am a MOB for an August wedding. The maids are wearing black tea length dresses. The other color is light pink.

What do I wear??

Should I also wear tea length? Can I wear floor length if I want? If I buy a long one, I can wear it to a military ball.

Can I wear black? (my daughter doesn't think it is funeral/mourning; she thinks it is classic and elegant). If not, what color should I get?

Thank you for any advice

Thank you . You are correct. I am to search and, in fact, I did search. All I did was get confused, though, because there were so many posts that came up and some answered some parts of a question but added more confusion to other parts of my question.

I'm working full-time and going to grad school full-time; I was hoping to cut down on search time. I'll post elsewhere as it is my fault I don't have time to use your resources.

There are a lot of questions here that a lot of people have already asked and we have answered. But, I can tell you that you may wear black although mothers shouldn't wear the same color as the bridesmaids. If you do though, it may be best for the other mother (s) to also wear black, even though typically mothers do not wear the same color. This is because black is a great color to have as a base and the bride often wants this continuity.

Please search for the other answers as there are many out there.
