When planning a wedding, don't forget about the attire for the mother of bride and mother of groom. Moms have to bring their A-game to the wedding and select a great dress. There are a wide variety of options to consider. Here are a few that are our favorites. 

Beaded Bodice

Many moms don't won't to wear an all over beaded dress as they don't want to have more beading than the bride.  A great alternative is a beaded bodice.  This works at any wedding venue. It gives you a little glamour without being over the top. 

 One Shoulder

Moms look very stylish and sophisticated in one shoulder dresses. They allow you to show off a little skin while keeping the look very classy. You can add beautiful accessories to your wedding day look.

SLEEVES

Sleeves on dresses add style, but also help to cover up areas moms might not want to show. You can opt for a short, long or flutter sleeve. Choose a length that makes you feel comfortable.
