Wedding Dresses for the Bride's Mother

Video Transcript

In our twenty years with working with brides and their families, I think one of the most frustrating members of that group is the Mother of the Bride and the Mother of the Groom. They have a very tough job in finding a gown that they feel beautiful in. So we would like to spend a few minutes with you and help you find out some key elements of selecting that gown and some rules of etiquette that might help you make it a better situation for you and your daughter, if you're the Mother of the Bride. First of all, let me address you as Mother of the Bride because you are the leader in this situation. You should select your gown first. You set the pace, you set the formality, and you decide what color you would like to wear along with your daughter, probably, who will have some input. But it's up to you to take the leadership and go ahead and select your gown or at least have an idea of what you want and then let the Mother of the Groom know what your thoughts are and what your decisions are. Then she can go and make her decisions and find a gown that's appropriate for her. I can't tell you how many times a Mother of the Groom comes in frustrated three or four weeks before a wedding, that the Mother of the Bride has not given her information to know what to select or what the formality of the wedding might be.
