Mothers of the Bride/Groom...

Well Ladies, the time has come…That wonderful guy your daughter has been dating (maybe it is your son) popped the question and your daughter said “yes, yes, yes”.  They want to get married in a year and you think you have lots of time to shop for “THE DRESS”. Yes, the bridal gown.  However, the Mothers of the Bride and Groom are equally important.

It could take as long as twelve to sixteen weeks plus alteration time to order something custom in color and size.  If you are plus size and looking for something extra special, it is wise to shop in a boutique where they specialize. Where there is a limitless selection to “try on” in larger sizes.   They will be the best to advise you as to what styles will enhance your body style and camouflage those figure flaws!

You would like to choose something that is ever so flattering, a color that compliments your skin and hair tone and if you’re a plus size gal like me, will make you look slimmer! 

In the coming segments, we will discuss various topics, including style, cost and color in order to make the selection of your special dress a more pleasant shopping experience.  Stay tuned!
