Frequently Asked Questions
When should the mother of the bride shop for her dress?
We recommend beginning your search approximately 6–8 months before the wedding. This allows ample time for ordering, alterations, and coordinating with the overall wedding aesthetic.
Does the mother of the groom choose her dress after the mother of the bride?
Traditionally, the mother of the bride selects her gown first. However, today many families simply coordinate styles, colors, and formality levels to create a cohesive look for the wedding day.
What colors should the mother of the bride avoid?
It's generally recommended to avoid white, ivory, or any shade that could be mistaken for the bride's gown. Beyond that, the best choice is a color that complements the wedding palette and makes you feel confident.
What should the mother of the bride wear to a formal wedding?
Formal weddings often call for elegant floor-length gowns, sophisticated evening dresses, or elevated cocktail attire depending on the dress code. Our stylists can help you determine the appropriate level of formality.
Do I need an appointment?
Yes. Appointments are encouraged to ensure every guest receives personalized styling and dedicated attention throughout her visit.
What sizes do you carry?
Our collection includes a variety of sizes and silhouettes designed to flatter a range of body types. During your appointment, our stylists will help you find options that fit beautifully and feel comfortable.
