This week we’ll be exploring the important bridal party and everything you’ll need in order to RSVP in style.

Today’s focus is on the mother of the brides and grooms. You’ve been a reassuring parent watching your son or daughter from the sidelines throughout the childhood years, now in the blink of an eye they have flourished into adulthood and one of the most important days of their lives now looms.

Whilst its true all eyes will be fixated on the newlyweds, the mother of the bride or groom holds a special and important role. For someone that has most probably been at the forefront with preparations along with emotional and perhaps financial support, this is a family day to remember. Having an outfit that you look and feel confident in is imperil, with dresses and separates starting from as little as £45.00 there is a style and outfit fit for any taste and budget. Whether you feel more comfortable in an elegant dress or sleek separates, M&S looks are ideal for the big day.

Floral

Perfect throughout all of the seasons, floral dresses truly brighten up your wardrobe. A beautiful bloom print will add femininity and focus to any piece. If you’re stuck with how to accessorise your look, choose one of the colours from the print and co-ordinate your shoes, handbag and head piece with that colour. Sticking to three colour tones will make sure your outfit isn’t too busy and will make it easier to complete with cover ups, jewellery and accessories.

Sleek Separates

Dresses simply aren’t for everyone. If you feel more comfortable in trousers or a jumpsuit, than a one or two colour palette may be perfect for you. Whether you choose a neutral or striking colour, it will be so easy for you to accessorise with. M&S have a gorgeous range of tailored jackets and trousers which cinch you in at the waist with a defining tie or skim your figure for a flattering silhouette. The contrasting monochrome style is a classic, especially if you do’t want to wear all over ivory. Mixing and matching with black is the perfect solution.
