The mother of the groom should dress accordingly with the theme of the wedding. Dresses are usually bought or ready when the mother of the bride and groom have discussed on what to wear to make sure that there is a similarity with their formal wear. The couple should not be out-shined but that does not mean that you should under dress for the occasion. A wedding is special to the mother of the groom too. Keep in mind that your dress should harmonize with the theme but not drown in it.
Be wary when picking a color from mother of the groom dresses. Avoid wearing white or ivory unless the bride will suggest it. You do not want to upstage or resemble the gown of the bride by wearing a similar style and color. Put into consideration that it is her special moment.
Colors of mourning like black should also be avoided but some consider the color in this modern day and age. Flamboyant colors will not do well if you’re looking for something simple so refrain from using red.
If you cannot find the right dress, you could go with pants that go with the occasion. You can buy or have pants tailored according to the wedding theme. You can choose the best fabrics and colors that look formal. Stilettos go well with tailored and flared cut pants for conservative mothers of grooms to be.
If age is an issue when wearing stilettos, you could always go for an alternative and pick a nice pair of formal shoes. Some weddings are held in certain venues that do not require you to wear long gowns and heels. Attending a wedding like a beach party would make you think twice about wearing a floor length gown and heels would just sink into the sand. Going another direction, diy wedding invitations is a money saver and a way to get friends involved helping with the wedding preparations.
