Re: Black for Mother of Bride Gown?

Of course it is.. my Mom wore black- it was an evening affair.. Plus my mom is a total NYC chic- no color for her.

Re: Black for Mother of Bride Gown?

My mom and DH's mom and stepmom all wore black for our wedding. In my opinion they can wear whatever you think is okay for them to wear.

Re: Black for Mother of Bride Gown?

i think it would be fine, the only reason not to do it is if it will bother you

Re: Black for Mother of Bride Gown?

Yup etiquette has changed and now black is very acceptable. As a matter of fact, my mom is wearing black/silver, my FMIL is wearing black/gold and my aunt is wearing black/white.
