wedding wednesday - mother of the bride dresses.

a few weeks ago i went shopping with my mom, grandma, aunt and flower girl. we had a v successful shopping trip and everyone found dresses! my mom was nervous about finding the right dress and she wasn't happy with a lot of the options she found online (too many sparkles, ruffles, and jackets). 

luckily she found a simple and chic dress, with a double-v in a gorgeous summery green!here are a few other options for a mother of the bride. these dresses ditch the embellishments and stick to simple silhouettes (perfect for a summer wedding)::

Beautiful picks! I love the rich tones and the simple lines. Classy and a little sexy. I bet your mom looks beautiful in her dress.

Love these! My mom had a really hard time finding a dress too that didn't age her- why do they make mother of the bride dresses so frumpy w/ridiculous ruffles and sparkles?

I love that Maggy London dress! SO classy and chic!

That bottom purple dress is beautiful! I love it. I might have to think about doing it for rehearsal dinner dress (even though you're suggesting mother of the bride...). What are you wearing for rehearsal? White?

I remember how tough it was to find the perfect MOB dress...my mom and MIL actually bought the SAME dress! They need to expand the selection out there!

These are lovely Mother of the Bride dresses! Can you believe that my mom wore my prom dress???? Haha...it was really nice actually.

I love all of these! My mom hated most of the mother of the bride dresses that were out there when I got married, so she chose something different. It was just a simple gold dress, and definitely no jacket! I don't know why they think moms like jackets so much...

Like everything else, I'm excited to see what your mom chose when the big day finally comes!

xoxo,
Joelle
