Mother of the Bride and Groom Outfit Inspiration for a Country Wedding

Choosing a venue is one of the first decisions a couple makes when planning their special day. Somewhere that reflects them and their personalities, and has plenty of room for their family and friends are the main criteria when searching for the perfect location to tie the knot.

The countryside is an extremely popular destination for weddings, and it’s not hard to understand why. Peaceful surroundings, rustic charm, and breathtaking views create a delightful atmosphere that everyone can enjoy. Whether it be in Australia, New Zealand, the United States, Canada or the UK, the romance of a country wedding is truly unique; and often you get to make a full weekend’s worth of memories if you’re staying a night or two near the wedding venue.

Country ceremonies can be held on a large or intimate scale, in a multitude of settings, such as a field, marquee, barn, a country manor house or by a river.  All of these create a magnificent backdrop for joyous celebrations and photos that you can cherish forever.

As the Mother of the Bride or Groom, choosing an outfit for the countryside that is comfortable from ceremony to reception is important—that way, as the second most important lady on the day, you look and feel your very best! 

Lucky for you, Living Silk has a range of options perfect for this natural setting.

This pure silk two piece outfit with sleeves is elegant and sophisticated, making it perfect for a Mother of the Bride or Groom attending a country wedding. The Pure Silk Pansy Skirt, which sits just above the ankles, is an ideal length—not too long that it will drag on the ground and not too short that it will blow up in a breeze.
