Attire - Mother of the Groom

uh, yeah - you want to go much more casual. Seeing the simple sheath the bridesmaids will be wearing, summer casual will work. Just don't go turquoise.

I wouldn't go with a skirt/top. You are nice and slim and will great in a bunch of different summer dresses. You'll find something great!

Based on those dresses, maybe a navy or chocolate colored maxi dress?

This Lands End dress is cute too. The wrap dress in navy would look cute. I love this one too.

I wore something similar to this(Lands End) to my SIL wedding in Hawaii a couple of years ago. Although it wasn't cotton knit... it was more of a linen-like fabric. I have this dress in the orange/white pattern and it's like wearing pajamas!

Maybe I should just abandon my notion of a dress and just look for a cute skirt and top instead?



This is a very good plan. I'd stay away from anything with lace overlay. I really like the idea of a summery maxi-dress like Chikabowa mentioned, but if you're super-short (you seem very petite in the pictures) the proportions of those are almost never right.

I don't love the 1st one but the 2nd & 3rd one are adorable & would blend well with the casual style of the wedding.

I don't know if I would be going with navy or chocolate. I'd go with a more summery color, looking at the color of the bridal party.
