[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For an upscale Tuscan wedding, I think going to NYC to shop for a fomal dress that compliments the wedding party attire would be a good idea.

Here i pulled this for you.  It's going to be too hard to do online.  Remember the bride/family probably will care very much about attractive photos.

Key Considerations for the Mother of the Groom Dress:
Coordinate, Don't Match: Rather than matching the bridesmaids directly, choose a color that complements the overall theme or a deeper/lighter shade of the wedding colors.
Consult the Couple: Ask the bride and groom if they have specific preferences or colors they prefer you to avoid (usually white, ivory, or red).
Complement the Mother of the Bride: Traditionally, the mother of the bride selects her dress first, and the mother of the groom chooses a different, complementary color.
Popular & Safe Colors: Navy, champagne, blush, silver, charcoal, plum, or emerald green are excellent choices that are elegant and photograph well.
Consider Venue and Time: The formality and time of day should dictate the dress style and color, with darker, more formal tones for evening weddings.

Ultimately, the goal is for the mother of the groom to look elegant, comfortable, and coordinated with the bridal party without wearing the exact same attire.

What does “going to NYC to shop” actually mean in this context?[/quote]

She could go somewhere like Bergdorfs, Saks, or Bloomingdales and see and try on dresses in person. They all have large selections of formal dresses (Nordstrom, too, but on a smaller scale). It's more efficient than ordering a dress off of the internet and hoping it works.[/quote]
How would alterations generally work if you shop in NY? You just go back and get your stuff? They ship to you or a closer location? (If Saks Bloomies or Nordstrom, for example) [/quote]

They will send to you but I personally would go back make sure of the final fit.  Fortunately it's an easy trip from the DMV.[/quote]
