Should MOB Dress match wedding colors?

i'm just wondering if the mob dress should be similar/same to the wedding colors. for example, my girls dresses are brown with an ivory sash. my mom bought a blue dress. blue is NOT one of my colors. is this okay?

I think it's fine...

You don't want the dresses to clash or be too close in color, but realistically the MOB is in very few pictures with the BMs (unless you have sisters that are BMs or other BMs that will be in all your family pictures).

IMO the MOB & MOG should NOT match the BP. These are two special women and they should stand out in their own right, not blend in.

MOB is not suppose to match the BMs so you are fine

I agree-they should stand out from the BPBut they should still match somewhat.

Re: Should MOB Dress match wedding colors?

I prefer it that way, I don't think the MOB should be wearing the same color as the BMs. She should be in her own shade since she's special for a different reason.

However, you don't want the colors to clash. My BMs were in lilac and my mom was in periwinkle, very nice IMO!!
