I was looking up dresses for my mother to wear, because when my sister got married she went two days before her wedding to pick a dress and didn't spend a lot of time looiking.. So, I'm trying to help her out, but I'm not sure what color she should wear. My colors are Begonia (MOH) And the other two will be in tangerine. Would champagne be too close to white? I read somewhere that you should avoid that color, but I'm not sure if I mind too much. Or should I have her match one of the colors in my wedding? Or just blue or black? (the guys tuxes are grey.) I don't want her to stand out by like wearing red or something. Thanks!

P.s. Here is a pictures of the colors..

    I think a bold shade of blue or purple would look lovely.

    She can really wear any color and I promise it won't stand out... because she won't be taking any group pictures iwth the wedding party. She'll be taking pictures with you and your new hubby and the families, none of whom will be dressed in your WP colors.

    Pick a color that she likes and that flatters her and you're good to go.

    If she sticks with something neutral like black, gray, champagne, chocolate, navy, tan, etc., there won't be any worries of her clashing with any of the other colors.
    Whoever said it was supposed to be happily ever after is a big fat liar.

    She can wear what ever she wants.  And if she chooses to wait until two day before the wedding that is her prerogative.  There are lots of other things to think about, don't think any more about it.  Now, should she ask for your thoughts or want to go shopping with you, by all means go, but otherwise don't think about it.

    I totally understand  - my mom doesn't have very good color sense, so I'll have to give her some guidance as well.
