What to Wear to Different Types of Weddings

If wedding planning is in full swing for your child’s wedding, then it’s time to talk about you! After all, as the mother of the bride, you’re the second most important woman in the room. Finding the perfect dress for the big day can feel daunting, especially when the wedding style varies so much. Do you need a black tie evening gown or a cocktail gown? Don’t worry, we’ve got your back! 


We believe your dress should reflect the celebration’s theme while making you feel absolutely stunning. Let’s explore some common wedding styles and the perfect dress to match.


The Classic Ballroom Wedding

This is the event where elegance reigns supreme. Think grand venues, tuxedoed guests, and evening sparkle. A formal wedding calls for a gown that’s sophisticated, structured, and polished. You want a look that feels elevated and timeless.


The Perfect Match: Cameron Blake CB905

This crepe mermaid mother of the bride dress is pure couture. Its clean lines and asymmetric neckline give it a modern, architectural feel without being trendy. The rich green color is a gorgeous alternative to traditional jewel tones and photographs beautifully. The fabric ensures a smooth, figure-flattering drape, and the included shawl adds that touch of polish required for a formal affair.

 


The Romantic, Destination Wedding

Picture a vineyard in the late afternoon, a historic estate just before sunset, or a stylish destination wedding with a romantic, slightly bohemian feel. These events often strike a beautiful balance - formal, but with a touch more warmth and movement than a strict black-tie event.


The Perfect Match: Cameron Blake CB208

This dress is made for turning heads with a perfect blend of high-fashion glamour and romance! Shown in a deep wine color, this gown offers both drama and detail. The sweetheart bodice is adorned with intricate lace appliqué and subtle sparkle, while the deep v illusion neckline adds a sultry yet elegant edge.

 


The best part? This gown is a style chameleon! The detachable off the shoulder straps allow you to customize your coverage and change up your look between the ceremony and the reception. This gown ensures you're radiating warmth and glamour as you celebrate under the stars.


The Modern City Wedding

Is the reception in a gallery space, a loft, or a trendy urban hotel? This type of wedding favors sleek silhouettes, versatility, and contemporary flair. You have more freedom here to skip the traditional gown and embrace a look that is stylishly modern and comfortable for moving around.


The Perfect Match: Montage M849

Why settle for one look when you can have a versatile set? The Montage M849 is the ultimate solution for the modern MOB. This elegant three-piece ensemble allows you to mix and match for different parts of the day, ensuring you look effortlessly chic from the aisle to the after-party.

 


The set includes a structured, sequin-adorned top that can be paired with the glamorous long skirt for the ceremony - giving you that classic elegance - or swapped out for the wide-leg palazzo pants for a contemporary, comfortable vibe during the reception. The silver color is modern and radiant, catching the light perfectly in an urban setting.


Remember, your daughter's wedding is a celebration of family, love, and a new chapter. As the mother of the bride, you deserve to feel confident, comfortable, and absolutely radiant. By matching your attire to the wedding's style, you ensure your look is perfect for the occasion.
