Silver or Gray Mother of the Bride Dresses

Silver or gray mother-of-the-bride dresses can be a dazzling, yet understated neutral color to choose for a Mother-of-the-Bride dress. This color is a wonderful neutral because it goes with so many other colors and easily harmonizes with popular wedding colors like pink, green, purple, navy, and burgundy. A gray or silver dress from pale dove gray to rich platinum or pewter sequined silver and beaded dresses, here are a few of my favorites from affiliated retailers and sponsors.

What color should the groom's mother wear?

The mother of the groom should wear colors that look nice on her and complement the wedding colors. That doesn't mean you're supposed to wear the wedding theme colors––you want to stand out at the wedding, not blend in with the backdrop.

Is Navy a good color for mother of the groom?

Since it's flattering on just about everyone, and because nearly every designer seems to offer an evening gown in the deep blue hue, navy is the perfect color for the mothers of the bride and groom to consider wearing on the big day.

Can mother of groom wear same color as mother of bride?

Color: Who Coordinates with Whom? Traditionally, the mother of the bride has been the first to choose her dress. The color of the mother of the groom's dress should complement, but not match it. This is easier than it sounds because no two hues are exactly alike.

What should a mother wear to her son's wedding?

Moms will look lovely in elegant dresses, lace skirts, and stylish jumpsuits for casual or formal weddings. The mother of the groom's dress should also adhere to the wedding's dress code. For a formal wedding, you'll need an expensive gown or pantsuit, but for a more casual one, you may wear anything you like.
