Question:
From Cindy
I am not sure what color of dress to put my mother in. She looks best in dark colors. My bridesmaids are wearing “ametheist”. I have been reading that she may look too much like the bridesmaids if she wears the same color. My wedding colors are purples with red accents. Can you give me some suggestions, please?
Answer:
As you are probably aware, it is customary for the mother of the bride to wear a similar color to that of the wedding party. Where your mother looks good in dark colors I would encourage a dark purple shade. This would allow your mother to look her best and feel comfortable, while still coordinating and complimenting your color scheme. The purple and red scheme is very attractive. That’s what I chose for my wedding colors too. There are many interesting articles about colors and color coordination on the web to further your knowledge. Enjoy your wedding planning, Ginger
