I'm 51, he'll soon be 61. This is my 2nd, his 1st. We became engaged 2 weeks before last Christmas, and planning a 2nd wedding is something that I never thought I'd be doing. Happily that's not the case. We'll be getting married on July 28 of 2013, smallish wedding with family and close friends.
My problem is that I decided to ask a friend and former employer whom I became very close too to be my Matron of Honor. She'll be 66 next year. I forgot when I asked her to be in the wedding how picky she is about her clothes. She's a plus size, but not as plus size as she thinks she is. I think she looks great. The problem we're having is finding something that we both like. I already have my dress, and I'm trying to find something that is not the same as mine but at least goes with the simpler idea that I had for our wedding. We're looking at Mother of the Bride dresses because the Bridesmaid dresses are geared to the younger girls.
Any suggestions on this would be really helpful, or if anyone would just like to share their experiences with me that would be great!
Thanks so much!
