I didn't pick out any of the parents outfits.

My mom hasn't picked out a dress yet but my daddy will be in a Tux

I don't think the parents HAVE to match the colors but they should be complementary. But more than anything something they just look good in for pictures.

My dad will be in a tux. My mom is going for a sage green or possibly lavender dress thing. DF's mom bought this navy blue dress (which makes me

because she says she' gonna lose 50-60 lbs to get into this dress - did I mention that the wedding is in Oct.)

Anyway - our colors are red, black and silver. Anything that doesn't clash is fine with me for the parents.

our colors were scarlet, choc brown and champagne. And it was an evening wedding, so my mom wore a brown evening dress and J's mom were like a dark blue-ish greenish colored evening gown. I dont think they 2 moms should wear the smae color, but thats completely up to yall

let me see if i can find pics.

My colors were black and red. I didnt tell my parents or DH's parents what to wear. My mom ended up wearing a silver dress and DH's mom wore a black and gold dress. Both of our dad's matched the groomsmen. It looked really good in pictures.

I think usually the mothers wear complimentary colors to the bridal party. As I understand it, the mother of the bride choose her dress first and the mother or the groom then finds something that would look nice with it. I don't think this is at all necessary but its an option depending on how you want to do things!!

the brides mom chooses a color and then the grooms mom complements it is the tradition i've always heard/

My wedding colors were blue, gold, and and antique...Mom ended up wearing a baby blue colored gown, MIL wore a brown one, FIL wore a tux with a brown vest. They complimented the party nicely without matching. I can link you to the album on fb if it helps?

I think that is up to the parents to decide
