Teacherbride - I would suggest just going out and having her try on lots of things. My mom is on the heavier side, as I mentioned in my post above, but the dress she got looked great on. It was very flattering.

My mom (standing just to the right of me in the pic) wore a beautiful beaded taupe flowy dress. She's not a dress sort of person, but this was comfortable and she loved it. I thought she looked beautiful. My MIL is to the left of Jeff, just after his dad, and she wore a white beaded halter dress. It was super heavy, but it was gorgeous! I was a bridezilla and made everyone wear white & taupe :)

My mom flew out to see me a couple of weeks ago to go shopping for her dress. We ended up going to Talbots (against her will since she is convinced it is an "old lady" store), and of course we found her outfit there. We had some bra cups sewn into the top (the top is actually not a shiny silk but a more matted material than shown). She looks pretty in it.

Thank you ladies for all of your posts. I just got emailed today from Josh's mom about what to wear, so this was very helpful. I found a bunch of cute dresses on Newport News & JC Penny!
