When you start to think about weddings, your mind is likely to turn towards thoughts around tradition, etiquette and formality. Especially for the mother of the bride, there is a sense that it is important to conform and fit in, making sure the attention of wedding guests remains firmly focused on the true belle of the ball – the blushing bride. But that doesn’t mean the fashion choices you make should end up looking frumpy or old fashioned.
