Find out 2019’s Hottest Color Trends For Mother’s of The Bride and Groom

Wedding season is upon us and you may be wondering what colors are trending in Mother of The Bride/Groom fashion

Navy, Navy and Navy is the color of choice this year! It is dark enough without being black. The color itself is very slimming and naturally exudes confidence. Princess seams styles as a silhouette works best on bottom heavy ladies. Fit and flare styles work best on a lady with a fuller bosom and shapely bottom.

Navy is also extremely versatile when it comes to matching with the rest of the bridal party. You can add pops of color with your accessories, although silver and pewter tend to work best.

Should I Wear A Corsage?

Should I Wear A Corsage?

Traditionally the mothers of the bride and groom as well as grandmothers do wear a corsage at the event. Corsages are usually worn on the left side. However, more contemporary mothers do away with tradition, and order a wristlet worn on the wrist or place a wristlet on their handbag. Also keep in mind, some flowers with a stamen may stain your gown. Always check with your florist and have it removed if necessary.

Mothers of the Bride can carry a bouquet of flowers also known as a Nosegay if the Bride prefers. If you are feeling a bit nervous about your own walk down the aisle, having something to carry may make you more confident! Most types of bouquets are appropriate . The color of the flower should complement the color of your gown and coordinate with the flowers chosen by the Bride.

How Long In Advance Do I Need To Order My Plus Size Dress?

Customers often ask how long does it take to order a dress? It really all depends on when you’re event is. A custom gown made to order, could take 8-12 weeks. Some gowns are in stock at the manufacturer and can be a week to ten days. A gown can always be purchased off the rack, at Queen of Hearts! We have the largest selection of gowns, cocktail dresses, pantsuits and evening wear in the Tri-State Area.
