My mom hasn't started looking yet, probably after the holidays, but she's kinda picky so it's all her, if she loves it, I love it!!

My Mom found a dress she loves at Estelles but it is $560 and she does not want to spend that much.

My Mom is looking into Rina DeMartella dresses. They are very expensive but beautiful. My Mom also looked at Montage dresses too. Those are more affordable.

the dress my mom has her eye on is a Rina Di Montella. It is actually more expensivee than my dress

My mom purchased it online from perfect bridesmaids since we received a better price quote from there. We initially went to RK Bridal and tried it on but we ran into some bad customer service so we decided to order it online. She picked a dress from the Jade by Jasmine collection.

Re: MOB question...

My Mom is a royal PITA when it comes to dresses, she won't wear them. She wanted to wear a pant suit

At best, seperates.

Luckily she found something kind of cute from Spiegel, and it was affordable and it's wearable again. I'm pretty neutral on it, but it's fine.

Re: MOB question...

I told my mom she can wear anything she wants as long as it's not 'hooker' red! (It's my mom's favorite color and she looks beautiful in it, but it will totally clash with my fall colors and I keep telling her it's not appropriate for a MOB dress - can you tell who the prude in the family is? - hint: it's not my mom!) I am allowing her to wear a nice burgundy red if she would like to.

She told me I'm not allowed to go shopping with her until she has it narrowed down to 3 dresses. She is actually going shopping right after the new year with her 'gay husband.' It still cracks me up sometimes that my mom has a 'gay husband' and actually calls him that to his face! He and his partner have also offered to go BM dress shopping with me - it's hysterical!

As for FMIL - she'll probably go to walmart or sam's club and pick up something that won't match at all - I'm thinking pastels.
