When it's your daughter's special day, you want to look and feel special with her and stand out as proud mother of the bride. So, where do you start when it comes to ladies wedding clothing?
There are endless amounts of womens dresses available, but which one is the right style for the occasion?
As mother of the bride, a knee length or ankle length dress should be on the cards. You can even pair a skirt and top, but make sure that the length is appropriate and you feel comfortable.
For a winter wedding, you may be able to get hold of a matching jacket for your dress; this will look appropriate and keep you warm for outdoor photographs, and can be taken off indoors.
For women conscious of the top of their arms, you can cover up in winter or summer with a bolero or light weight shrug.
For a summer wedding, a sun dress would look great, if you are comfortable in bright colours you could dare to wear a bold coloured summer dress or floral print sun dress, which would be great for a garden wedding.
If you are looking for something to help sculpt your waist, a thick belt may be too harsh. Instead, try tying round some ribbon as a waist belt - you could even have it made in advance to match the colours of the wedding.
If you are looking for an ultra glamorous look, there are lots of glam maxi dresses out that are appropriate for special occasions. They also hide your legs and can also look great on plus-sized women.
Other things to bear in mind are the location and style of the wedding; if it is a church wedding, bear in mind how the bride wants the wedding to look, a low cut strapless dress may not be appropriate.
