Internet "Debate" About MOB Gown

Mother of the bride Lori wore this custom Audrey + Brooks floral design featuring a plunging neckline and a detachable bow and train. Her daughter Amanda's wedding dress was by Ramona Keveza.

 

There were the usual comments that the Mom was trying to upstage the daughter, it's not her day, she wants to be the star.

 

They purchased their gowns together while on a shopping trip in NYC, and Amanda said her Mom's gown was perfect. She said her Mom looked stunning, and that it was just as much her Mom's day as it was hers.

 

I agree with Amanda, who doesn't want their Mom to shine too? Why are women always portrayed as competing with each other for attention, even a loving Mother and daughter? 

 

Bu the way there is now a waitlist for this custom MOB dress.

 

Two beautiful women and a beautiful Mom and her daughter.

She looks more like a bridesmaid since she is holding a bouquet.

I agree and they both look beautiful.

For my daughter's wedding she told me to wear what makes me feel beautifulHeart

@Greeneyedlady21  I think they both looked great.

 

The mother is very attractive. How could the mother play that down? And why would she? IMO, she could have worn a potato sack and still looked good.

My gosh.....what a beautiful dress.  

 

The fabric looks very expensive.  

 

As long as her daughter Amanda loves it, good for her.

 

All is well that ends well.  I'm sure that this wedding turned out very well.  Good luck to the bride and groom and all of their family.

No, just a random Mom and daughter whose Instagram reel of the wedding went viral

Exactly what I was wondering!

 

ETA Ok, thanks @Greeneyedlady21 

 

I guess I'm the only one who thinks the mom's dress is not appropriate for church.  But since it's their wedding, not my concern.
