Q. My daughter is getting married in an evening wedding in September of 2009. Her colors are black, white and purple. What color should I wear? I am the Mother of the Bride.
A. You could certainly wear any shade in the purple family. You would want to avoid white as that is reserved for the bride.

A. Mary, fall weddings speak of rich, jeweled toned colors. Your first option is to consult your own color pallet to choose a color that fits you. If you have trouble finding which one, look in your closet and see what colors jump out at you, that’s a good clue. Also, what colors do you wear that bring compliments from friends. With black, white, and purple as the wedding colors, you may find that mauve, raspberry, or sapphire blue might be options to consider. Congratulations on an upcoming special event.
