- The mother of the bride goes to the church rehearsal where the wedding party practices what they should do and say and then there is generally a Wedding Rehearsal Dinner after which all members of the wedding party (including the parents of the bride and groom.) There is no dress rehearsal for most brides or wedding party, but the bride and her brides maids would have to go into the wedding shop where the wedding dress and brides maids dresses were purchased to be sure no extra alterations have to be made on any of the dress and the mother may attend this if she asks the bride (which is generally not a problem.)

ABSOLUTELY. Never go a rehearsal without it!
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.

Who goes with bride to pick out her dress?
This should be the brides decision but personal circumstances should be taken into account. When I was getting married, I went dress shopping by myself to narrow down my selection. Then I took my mother and my future mother-in-law (her 2 daughters were married at the courthouse with only witnesses present). Afterwards she thanked me for including her and providing her with an experience that she would not otherwise have. Now it's my turn. My only daughter was killed just weeks before we were scheduled to go dress shopping. My son is getting married and his future bride has decided not to include me. She is aware of my feelings but says it is not 'traditional.' That explanation doesn't sit well since their wedding plans are not 'traditional'- my son will be standing with a best-person and not a best-man and my son is actively involved in all the wedding plans. I can say that her decision has tainted the way I think of her now. Advice: Yes, this is your day but please be kind and considerate in your decisions and communications.
How far in advance should the mother of the bride order her dress?
As soon as the bride decides on the color theme of the wedding and her bridesmaids' dress colors. A mother of the bride dress should be ordered right after the bride orders her wedding gown. The reason frequently being, mother of the bride dresses in the color, fabric, style, and size that she wants is never available at the first attempt at shopping. Then there is the queston of whether she likes the way to dress looks on her. The bride, believe or not, has a less taxing time and experience than her mother. If it is a traditional wedding, her two choices of colors are either white or ivory and normally, a bride is young and fairly thin. She is much easier to fit. Mother of the brides, on the other hand, have to coordinate color with the color theme of the wedding, and confer with the mother of the groom as well. Their outfits have to complement each other's. Also, mothers of the bride (and groom) want to look their best for the wedding and try to lose those few extra pounds. This delays the time they could use for shopping and when they finally take the plunge, they simply cannot find what they want and have big time crunch situation. Advice to mother of the brides out there is to never to wait till you lose that 10-20 pounds, etc. Buy a dress that you love and look great in and if you lose the weight, get it professionally altered. You will be much happier and stress-free knowing that you already have a dress to wear on that very important day.

Colors such as clover and ivory for a wedding are spring colors, so the mother of the bride could wear a very soft yellow; soft shell pink; rose/beige. If you are buying the dress take a sample of the two colors in with you and the sales person will be more than happy to help you select a color. If you are renting your dress then they sales person will give you the same service. Dark colors are out as the bride should be the center of attention and pastel colors are the best way to go.
Should the mother of the groom wear the same color dress as the bride?
A mother of the bride looks best in a color that is complementary to the bride's dress. In doing this, she matches the overall theme and tenor of the wedding itself. A good rule of thumb is to select a color that may be similar to the color of the bridesmaids' dresses. For example, if the bridesmaids' dresses are lavender, a mother of the bride could select an outfit in plum, lilac or light blue. Another good rule of thumb is to select something in a neutral color, such as taupe, brown or navy. It is preferable that the mother-of-the-groom and the mother-of-the-bride should not be in the same color, but rather in colors which coordinate.
Can i wear a Peach dress to a wedding?
Well, it makes a difference if you are the bride or a guest i guess! As a guest, a peach dress would be very suitable. As a guest you only have to remember that you should not wear white (the brides color) or black (symbolizes grief/sorrow) or in any way outshine the bride! As a bride, of course the most popular colors are white and ivory, but these days it's really a matter of individual taste and style. If you believe peach is the right color for you, go for it! To most brides, the choice of dress is not only a matter of finding the dress that she likes and which suits her body, but it is also very significant that the groom should like the dress. If you choose a peach dress, it may be a good idea to make sure, the groom will not be disappointed. If the groom has been dreaming of his bride in a traditional white dress, that might be a reason to reconsider. Also the mother of the bride, who has been dreaming of this day since the day the bride was born, may be disappointed if the dress is not white. Some people feel it's not right to wear white if you are not a virgin on your wedding day, but that is rather conservative and since (let's be honest) most brides are not virgins, it's not a belief that has much to do with reality anymore!
