If your son or daughter is getting married this summer, congratulations! It’s the most popular time of year for a wedding, which means finding the perfect mother of the bride or groom dress should be a cinch, right? …….. Not always so!
If you’re still struggling with what to wear to look sophisticated and appropriate at your child’s wedding this June, July or August, here are a few fabulous Summer Mother of the Bride dresses that are totally in sync with the season.
Pink is Perfect for Summer MOB Gowns
Your choice of dress as Mother of the Bride will be influenced by many things, from the location and formality of the wedding to the color scheme for the bridal party, your body type and also what’s trending this season. For Summer, pink is the color being favored by many Mother of the Brides and grooms.
The gentle pink color of this gown is perfect for a breezy summer wedding, and complements many other colors ranging from black to metallic to shades, pale blue and light gray. I also love the way this dress nips in at the waist and flows gently outwards. Many women have a hard time finding a dress with sleeves, which makes this one a real winner too!
Sheer Layers are Trending this Summer
Light, airy, translucent layers are trending this spring and nowhere else do they look a pretty as when incorporated into a Summer Mother of the Bride dress. This pretty, light periwinkle gown has twinkling beaded flowers and fronds floating atop the whisper-thin overlay. I love the band of lace at the waist to accentuate the A-line silhouette. Heavenly! 
Tea Length Mother of the Bride Dresses for Summer
When you are stuck for what to wear as Mother of the Bride, lace is always a good option. It’s classic but at the same time modern, especially in this very popular shade of Lavender. This is a great summer Mother of the bride or groom dress ( or step-mother dress for that matter) because it is pretty and practical. It’s short and cocktail like which means you can easily wear it again for another occasion for at least a couple of years to come.
One Shoulder Mother of the Bride Dresses are Glam
One shoulder gowns work all year long for formal events, but they are particularly glam for a hot summer wedding. This gorgeous gown pulls out all the stops and lets everyone know that next to the bride you are an important member of the bridal party. If you want to feel like a movie star on your son or daughter’ s big day, this is the dress!

Hello, my daughter ( step-daughter) is getting married this June. Her colors are Royal Blue, White and Silver. The wedding party will all have different dresses in the Royal Blue color. Her mother stated she will probably wear silver. What other color can be worn to compliment the party without wearing silver matching the mother.
Hi Dianne, Have you thought about burgundy or a pink-blush? Those are popular colors and would lovely with the royal blue and silver.
