Mother of the bride shopping in Manchester

Me and Mum picked hers out online (Monsoon) and she ordered it from their website. If we hadn't done that we would have probably gone to somewhere like John Lewis in the Trafford Centre. Look on the big department store's websites and make a list of places to visit.

Hi janine

im a manchester bride and getting married in April too!

Oh oh go dim dreading the mother of the bride outfit hunting as my mum isn't the type to wear a traditional mother of the bride type outfit (or dressy at all really!)

i would probably suggest house of Fraser? Lots of different depts in there? Maybe wait till just after new year bc as soon as the sales are out of the way they will have all their spring lines out xxx

Thanks.

My mum isn't the type to wear a traditional outfit either. I think you're right- we might have to wait until the new year. Good luck when you do start looking.

Oh I forgot to mention, I'm marrying in April too. Spooky!

My mum didn't want to wear something too mothery either, she said a lot of the 'mother of the bride' stuff was frumpy.

This is what she chose.

That's gorgeous Moosh, where's it from? I think I'll be hitting Manchester with my mum in the Spring in time for my August wedding.

Sorry, just seen your previous post.

Thanks for all the replies. Mooshy - thats so lovely. I hope we can find something as nice as that in spring

My mum got her dress from Phase Eight, this is the only pic I could find of the dress but she's got different shoes and hat.

Hi,

My website has fascinators now and all year when she is ready.

My mum also is not the traditional type. I knew she would want a long dress, and she was worried she would look like a glorified bridesmaid. We found one in Ghost in the end, and it looks incredible!
