Mother Of The Groom Dresses
I am writing this Squidoo lens about Mother of the Groom dresses in honor of all Mothers of the Groom. I remember my Mother-in-law fondly and the stress she was going through trying to find her perfect Mother of the Groom dress (outfit) for our wedding.
She felt unfairly disadvantaged because all her searches for Mother of the Groom dresses seemed to turn up Mother of the Bride dresses! I tried convincing her that it was one in the same, but she really wanted something specific to her and her role.
In my search to help her find the best Mother of the Groom dresses I came across plenty of great info specific to the Grooms Mother which I am going to share with you here.
One of the things my Mother-in-law particularly raved about was a book she found called "Mother of the Groom" by Sharon Naylor. Being a self confessed 'trashy novel' reader I was surprised when she actually read the entire book cover to cover! In her own words: "This book really gave me the confidence to shine. Knowing exactly what was expected of me in my role as Mother of the Groom took away all my self doubts and left me to enjoy the upcoming event!"

Get Yourself in the Mother of the Groom Dresses Mood with Something Specially for You...
My fiancée and I decided to give his Mum a Mother of the Groom apron as a little gift as she is always in the kitchen cooking up a terrific storm which is always certain to satisfy the palette. It was our little way of saying "Thank you" for all the delicious meals she has made over the years and we have enjoyed enthusiastically!
Well, she loved the idea so much of proudly displaying the fact the she was the Mother of the Groom that she asked where we had purchased it. She promptly went onto Amazon herself and added a Mother of the Groom T-shirt and tote bag to her collection all of which she was thrilled with! She said: "Why shouldn't I treat myself? My son is getting married and besides if and when my second son eventually marries I'll be all kitted out, but perhaps then I'll get myself the Mother of the Groom mug too!"

Mother of the Groom Dresses and Gowns
Now all that remained was to find the perfect Mother of the Groom gowns. She really wanted to wear a hat as she felt it was one of the few occasions these days where a woman got to do such a thing. I offered to go around and help her search for dresses one of the days and I have to admit I was dreading it a little thinking it would be an all day dilemma of maybe this, not sure about that.
To my glad surprise that was not the case at all. Having become an overnight Amazon fan, she was thrilled when I told her that you can also buy clothes on Amazon (everything from plus size Mother of the Groom dresses to petit) and so we went straight to their selection and within the hour she had selected a gorgeous pale blue skirt and jacket suit with matching hat from their Mother of the Groom dresses selection.
She was double excited about the fact that they offered next day delivery so she could be trying it out the very next day and with that taken care of we spent the rest of the afternoon laughing and chatting over a bottle of chilled chardonnay.

Mother of the Groom Dresses Colors
Since my big day which was a terrific success, I have been asked by many Mums to help them select their perfect Mother of the Groom dresses and the biggest dilemma they all seem to share is "What color?" The color you choose is very important and I suggest something that compliments the theme colors the bride has chosen for her bridesmaids if there is one. My Mum chose blues and greens for the color of her dress at my wedding and my Mother-in-law selected a beautiful pale blue, both of which complimented the Royal blue of my bridesmaids and the group pictures looked wonderful when they were developed afterwards.
Do a Google search for wedding photos to get some ideas about what colors go well together.

I hope you have enjoyed this lens, please do sign the guestbook to let me know you stopped by and feel free to add any of your own suggestions that might be useful to Mothers of the Groom like: "What is a great first song for the Groom and his Mum to dance to"? At my wedding we just did the Bride and Grooms first dance and then the Mums danced with each others husbands when they joined the dance floor at the second song which we left for the DJ to select, but I have since had many Mums ask me this question as obviously a lot of Mums and Grooms have a dance all to themselves so it would be great if you share your recommendations here.
