We went out and got moms dress today. it was such a nice day. ever since the brain hemmoraghe i think this was the one day i have seen her smile in a long time. Peg tub was removed couple weeks ago so she was ready for this adventure. And an adventure it was. My mom is 45 years old.. now i looked at some of the MOB dresses with jackets wasnt a big fan. So we went to esteslles on 110 and found her dress. It is black and white... i know some are prolly thinking this is tacky but my moms happiness and comfort is all that matters.. im not gonna be bridezilla. it is an aline cut and looks beautiful on her. Do you think people willl have an issue with this. i will see if i can post a pic, i didnt have the camera today.. is it bad luck to wear black.. i know its not a typical color to see mob in. but my wedding has been far from typical. FMIL IS WEARING BRIGHT RED and TIGHT!!! Well whats done is done i suppose. thanks for letting me vent.

Re: MOB dress DONE!!
i don't think that's tacky at all - the most important thing is for you to look back at your pictures and see that your mom looked beautiful and was happy and comfortable on your wedding day, so really the heck with anyone who thinks it's tacky. that's so great that she found something!

Black is a fine color to wear. In fact, I am pretty sure my mom is going to be wearing black. I am also glad that your mother is feeling better and I wish both of you all the best.

I'm wearing black over nude, lots of moms have posted they are wearing black! Black is so fine, and it sounds like she picked something beautiful!
I am so happy to hear your mom is doing better! You two created a beautiful memory today, and if anyone DID have an issue, you know what we'll say about them!
All best wishes!

Re: MOB dress DONE!!
Whatever makes your mom comfortable is fine to wear! I don't think black is bad luck, my BM's are wearing black It sounds like your mom is happy with her choice and that is all that matters!

Re: MOB dress DONE!!
Black and white isn't tacky in itself. If it's a black and white minidress with ostrich feathers, that would be tacky! But I don't think that's what your mom bought. It's a lovely and classic combination, and will look good with you in white and your FH in black. What's important is that she feels comfortable and attractive on the day, especially if she's been sufferering from health problems. And even if some people have issues--who cares? If they mention them they're tacky anyway, right?
congrats on finding the dress. I'm sure it's a big weight off your and your mom's shoulders.

Black and White isnt tacky at all, I think its classy and elegant. My mom picked a black dress with a nude underlay, I love it. Your mom's dress sounds beautiful.

Re: MOB dress DONE!!
I dont think its tacky at all. My FMIL bought a 2 peice, the skirt is black but the top is pink, I would care if both moms wore black as long as they loved it-were comfortable and looked great. I dont think its back luck.
