    I found my dress in one day of shopping.  My mom, however, has gone to like 10 different stores and looked everywhere online for her MOB dress.  She is telling me she can't find anything and freaking out.  Well, naturally this is stressing me out.

    My BM dresses are dark teal/turquoise.  My mom has very little fashion sense and she doesn't know what color to buy or anything.  She has fair skin and dark hair, so ivory/beige might wash her out.

    What color MOB dress would go well with Teal BM dresses?  My flowers are coral.

    I have teal BM dresses as well.  My mom went with a dress is purple (Alfred Angelo's grape).  I told her she could do chocolate brown, burgundy, purple, coral, all shades of blue - basically jewel tones.

    Is your mom my mom?  We had the same issue.  I bought the first wedding gown I tried on, but my Mom ordered and returned at least 6 dresses before she settled on one, and she still didn't like it.

    I think anything dark would look great.  Purple, navy, brown, etc.  Nordstrom has a good selection of MOB dresses.
