mother of the bride and mother of the groom dresses

Should the mother of the bride and mother of the groom wear long length dresses if the bridesmaids are wearing long length dresses?

  • It doesn't matter. Whatever they're comfortable with.

    Exactly.
  • Whatever the moms want should be fine. Doesn't matter if they're long or short or in relation to the bridesmaids dresses. 

    For example, my mom really loves wearing long gowns and my wedding is an excuse for her to wear one--so she will be wearing one. Its just what she wants. As long as you're OK with it just let them wear what they find that fits and is flattering.

  • I don't think it matters, I don't care what either of mine wear as long as it isn't a white dress haha. But they both plan to purchase dresses in the same color family as the wedding colors so they don't look like they don't belong in pictures.
  • Moms get to wear whatever they want. They are not in the wedding party, so they are like any other guests as far as attire goes. 
    What did you think would happen if you walked up to a group of internet strangers and told them to get shoehorned by their lady doc?~StageManager14

    My MOH is wearing a long dress, and my mom found a short dress she loves, so she went ahead and bought it. My FI's mom has mentioned she will probably go long. I am happy with whatever makes them comfortable.
