18 Stylish Fall Dresses for the Mother of the Groom

The big day has arrived and you have spent your time leading up to this moment helping your son and his future partner with their impending nuptials. But, don’t overlook your own attire for the occasion. You are not just any guest, you are the Mother of the Groom, an important title that calls for a great gown. The only rules that really should be followed is do not wear white and do not wear solid black (add some embroidery, pattern, or sparkle). While the dress should be appropriate for the occasion, there is no need to wear anything matronly or dated—we recommend channeling Carole Middleton for inspiration. Below, we’ve gathered beautiful gowns that will have you looking and feeling your best at your son’s wedding.
