Choosing Mother Of Bride Dress Style For A Hawaiian Garden Wedding

Weddings are some of the most important days of our lives; it makes sense that every detail should be perfect. Hawaiian Garden style weddings can be beautiful, elegant, and romantic when all the elements coordinate together to create a perfect day which will be remembered for a lifetime. Memories that last forever are the reason it is so important to choose mother of the bride dress which best suits the Hawaiian Garden wedding. This easy to follow guide will help ensure you choose the mother of the bride dress that is just right for your wedding.

Things to Consider

As with any important decision there are many things to consider when choosing the mother of the bride dress. First and foremost, the preferences of both the bride and her mother should be taken into consideration. What does the bride envision? What does the mother of the bride like and in what styles does she feel most comfortable? What styles flatter the body of the bride's mother most? Keeping in mind the above considerations, the theme of the wedding should also be considered. Happily, a Hawaiian Garden style wedding lends itself well to many styles of dress for the mother of the bride.

Wedding Location

Many Hawaiian Garden style weddings are held outdoors and so the weather should be a consideration. For a warm summer wedding, consider choosing a dress made of chiffon. This breathable fabric is lightweight and will elegantly sway in a light breeze. The wedding location (as well as individual preferences) also has bearing on the length of the dress. A dress which falls just below the knees can be an elegant choice for warm weather. A small shrug or matching jacket is a great choice if there are any concerns about the possibility of a chill in the air.

Wedding Theme

Choosing a mother of the bride dress which both satisfies your personal style and coordinates well with the Hawaiian Garden style wedding can be a breeze. Choose a neckline which matches the formality of your even and opt for embellishments which complement the general style of the event. For example, a strapless style can allude to sunny tropical afternoons while a sweetheart neckline is reminiscent of romance in any climate.

Coordinating

When choosing the mother of the bride's dress it is important to consider what other key people at the wedding will be wearing. If the bridal party are wearing floor length gowns, consider whether or not you would like the mother of the bride to dress similarly. Likewise if the bridesmaids are wearing a distinct style such as a fun tiered dress, consider the possible aesthetic of having the mother of the bride in the same style as the bridesmaids.

Final Thoughts

Ultimately the mother of the bride dress selection should take into consideration the wants and needs of both the bride and her mother, the location of the wedding, the Hawaiian Garden theme, and the attire of other important people in attendance. Take these factors into consideration when choosing the length, style, and fabric of the mother of the bride dress and you will certainly make the right decision.

Wedding Dresses for Mature Brides

Picking out a wedding dress as an older bride is a vastly different experience to that of a younger bride. This probably isn't that surprising when you consider younger people often have quite different tastes in clothing and fashion. As a result the bride will be more likely to opt for something that resonates with their own particular style as opposed to the type of dress we associate marriage with in a traditional sense.

Mature brides have often established their own sense of style by this stage of life and as a result will be less bound by typical wedding day traditions. In fact many mature brides may be remarrying and have already experienced a traditional wedding, although certainly not all mature brides have been through a divorce. As modern life dictates there is far more pressure to establish a career nowadays before getting married and starting a family and this has resulted in more people marrying later in life.

Picking the Dress that Suits you as Opposed to the Dress that Looks great in the Store

Another advantage an older bride will have is experience when it comes to fashion. Mature brides will often have a far better idea of the style of dress that will suit them best. Younger brides will typically choose a wedding dress that looks great in the store or on paper but will give little consideration to how suitable the dress is for their particular look. One of the biggest mistakes many younger brides make when it comes to selecting a dress (and selecting a dress for their bridesmaids) is they tend to move away from what works and go for something completely out of character on their wedding day. This is hardly surprising but is something that should be avoided.

Most mature brides will often opt for something more subtle with less embellishments and accessories. This not only conveys a sense of confidence but ultimately will reflect the style of the bride in question.

White Dress or Not

This really does depend. Not so long ago the white dress was a reflection of innocence and wasn't considered appropriate for someone remarrying however times do change. And the color white is now seen as a color that represents a new beginning rather than just purity. It is quite acceptable for a mature bride or one who is remarrying to wear white but most will opt for something neutral such as beige or cream.
