There is absolutely no reasons to not to! As long as your dress is not similar colour or style to the bridesmaid (and of course not white) then I think it should be fine. However, I think you have to in someway make it clear that you are the mother of the bride and not one of the bridesmaid - otherwise, a) the bridesmaid might not be happy thinking that they might not be valued and b) You played a big part in the Bride and the Groom's lives, you want to stand out and let people congratulate you on having a beautiful daughter

∙ 13y agoThe best policy is to default to what the bride and groom would like. If no preferences have been stated, while it is nice for the dresses to complement each other (for pictures, etc.) there is no rule that says that dresses must match in style, length, or color. Ultimately a woman will look best in what she is comfortable wearing.
Other elements to consider for choosing a dress: What the bridesmaids are wearing, location of the venues, time of day, and if there is a dress code for the invited guests.

What to write in a kitchen tea card?
A Kitchen Tea is a small bridal shower that gives the bridesmaids and/or the families of the bride and groom a chance to have a more intimate shower for the bride. It is usually small, consisting of the bridesmaids, the bride and/or groom's immediate family, close friends of the bride and groom, or the whole wedding party. It is not normal for all groups to be included. The purpose of a kitchen tea is to give the bride small things that she may not have received at the main bridal shower. With this being said, treat your card just like a bridal shower card and offer the bride your heart felt congratulations and well wishes. There is no need for a long verse, but a short line of sincerity will be appreciated by the bride.
What should mother of groom wear to afternoon wedding when brides maids are wearing short black dresses?
The mother of the groom can wear any color, but white. Since the bridesmaids are wearing short black dresses you should wear a pastel summer colors such as a light blue; soft yellow; shell pink, etc., dress and it can be just below the knee or a longer dress to the ankle.
Can the mother of the groom and the mother of the bride wear the same color?
* The mother of the bride and the mother of the groom do not wear the same outfit. Mothers will wear dresses and they may be different in fashion and color as long as the color of the dress stays within the guidelines of the colors the bride has chosen for her wedding: Example: If the bride's Maid of Honor and Bridesmaids have long or short dresses in a midnight blue then the mothers could wear soft shell pinks; soft blues, etc. The bride or grooms mothers should never wear white or off white. One mother may want to wear a short dress while the other mother may prefer a longer dress. If you can and your Maid of Honor or Bridesmaids are in long dresses see if you can't get your mother and future mother-in-law to wear a long dress as well as it looks better in wedding pictures, but if one refuses it's not worth a possible argument. You can take your Maid of Honor with you and take both mothers to a wedding shop and have a say in what you would like as far as style, but go easy on the moms and realize they may have a good reason for choosing a certain dress to match their body type. If it is a matter of money for one or both of the mothers then rent the dresses.
Can a maid of honor wear a nice pant suit?
It is up to the Bride to determine what her mother and future mother-in-law wear for the wedding as far as style and color. If the Maid of Honor; Bridesmaids are in long dresses it often looks better in pictures for the mother of the bride and mother of the groom to wear long dresses. If it is a matter of finances wedding shops and wedding rentals are available to rent the dress of your choice and it's not necessary to buy a long dress you may not wear again. Simple lined designs with perhaps a little beading (if you want) is the best way to go. If you buy your dress and the bride is fine with it, buy a classic fit so you can shorten the dress for future use.
How accepting would a mother of the bride outfit be if it consisted of a short skirt and a long jacket?
There is a lot of flexibility in terms of what the mother of the bride can wear to her daughter's wedding. The mother should take into account the bride's wishes and try to accommodate them while also making sure she feels good in the dress she has chosen. A short skirt (or strapless gown, for that matter) is generally not preferred as anything too sexy risks upstaging the bride. However, the bride may be OK with it, so it's best to just ask. The overall goal is to complement and make the bride look good.
What hairstyles look best for bridesmaids up or down?
I think it depends on a number of factors including hair length between the bridesmaids (if one has hair down to her lower back and the other has a short bob, up-dos might be best), season (in hot weather hair down might get sweaty and not look as nice after a few hours) and finally how the bride has styled her own hair (make sure the bride's style is unique!)
