Just a thought on a black dress…
I recently went to a wedding were the groom’s mother wore a long black dress. It was a formal wedding and I just thought of black being formal. BUT…some of the other women at the wedding, including the bride’s mother, felt it was a statement of some sort towards the bride and the marriage. They felt that for a wedding, the mothers should not wear black as it was more “funeral” attire. I honestly didn’t get it. :shrug: The mother looked very formal and nice, but for some reason these women had a HUGE problem with it.
(I think the picture of the dress you posted is very nice. I agree with a shawl/wrap just in case it is chilly at the reception). Congratulations! I hope you have a wonderful day!!

[color=blue]Lisa,
mmm I thought of that… the dress from Chadwicks does have a bit of white. I don’t think that the grooms mom is wearing anything too too formal. I wish I knew what she was wearing lol… this feels like highschool… and that was a long long time ago :roflhard:

Thank you for your thoughts.

That first one is really pretty![/quote]

[color=blue]It is. Would not need a wrap with that one either. I think I need to just bite the bullet Friday after work and visit the mall. I always think that I must have the “deer in the headlights” look when I go there. :teehee: I am just not a mall person. I drive by it everyday coming to work but would rather visit smaller, more intimate shops.

That is such a difficult position to be in. Bless your heart. I have a dear friend who is step mom to 3 children and they have been quite difficult for mer, she having a very strong personality. Sounds like your heart is in just the right place.

I totally agree with the others suggestions on going in and trying on the dresses. And I also agree with you, I hate trying on clothes/shopping, hehe! If only you had more time to knit up a beautiful shawl to coordinate! But that is the least of your worries right now as its getting down to the wire.

Thank you for the kind words Rissa. She has pretty much adopted me. Calls me mum… I am finding my comfy spot with her now. At first I did not really know my “place” I did not want her to think I wanted to replace her Mum. Not at all. Also not sure what to share with her as far as opinions. Gary encourages me to treat her just like I treat my own daughter but… I still don’t think I can be as opinionated as I am with Leslie ha!

Thanks again.
