One of the most exciting things for a bride while planning her wedding is picking out the dress. And while it is important to find a dress that she and she alone is crazy about, it is also nice to have some outside input.

This is where the bridesmaids and the mother of the bride come in. It can be a joy for the bride to go out with the most important women in her life in search of that perfect dress. Aside from all the laughter and fun, their insight and opinions could turn out to be invaluable.

In fact, the work that the mother of the bride puts in during the months leading up to her daughter's wedding day is oftentimes unparalleled. So when the big wedding day comes around, it is only right that she looks her best as well. Here are a few ideas for colorful mother of the bride dresses that will let mom shine just as brightly as her daughter.

Short Iridescent Taffeta Jacket Dress

This ink-colored jacket and dress combo is a gorgeous shade of bright blue. It is perfect for a contemporary and fashion-forward mother of the bride.

The jacket has a lovely brooch detail and sensibly capped sleeves. That way, it offers a little bit of extra coverage but still looks dashing and stylish.

The dress itself has a subtle side ruching, which is designed specifically to disguise any flaws in your figure. It hangs to just above the knees, giving it a sense of allure without going too overboard. This dress and jacket set is also available in both mink and grey color options.

Hi-Low Mesh Dress with Rhinestone Brooches

For something really wild, you can't go wrong with this gorgeous dress in a deep shade of red. It is perfect for getting out on the dance floor and shaking a leg. The front of the hemline hangs to right below the knees while the back reaches down slightly farther. This effect is at its very best when the wearer is twirling around on the dance floor!

The top part of this gorgeous gown has rhinestone brooches sparkling at either shoulder strap. The bodice criss-crosses the chest and then hugs the waist before spreading out again at the hips. This dynamic dress is truly only for moms who are willing to make an impression.

Stretch Satin Cap Sleeve Dress

There is an old saying that goes "When I am an old lady, I will wear purple." But this beautiful orchid-colored gown is truly for the young at heart. It would look just as natural being worn on the red carpet at the Academy Awards as it will at the wedding ceremony of a proud mother's daughter.

The dress has cap sleeves at the top that provide a little bit of extra warmth and coverage. From there, the dress sweeps down, hugging the waist and the hips. This slim cut creates a dazzling and very flattering silhouette. It also hangs to right about the knees and looks its best when paired with a pair of tall silver high heels.

Off the Shoulder Ruched Stretch Tafetta Dress

This plumberry-colored number is another dazzling option that will have mom looking great and showing off her colorful side. The dress is a stunning revolution of flattering ruching and modern pizzazz.

At the top of the dress, the straps hang off of the shoulders and meet in the center with a sparkling brooch. Because of the intense shine of the brooch, this dress doesn't necessarily pair well with most necklaces. The open neckline might make the wearer feel obligated to put something there, but the presence of the brooch will only make the look feel complicated and cluttered. Instead, it is best to pair this dress with a big, impressive pair of hanging earrings.

As mentioned, the ruching appears all over the dress and will make mom's figure look fantastic. What's more is that the stretch taffeta fabric also feels surprisingly comfortable. Get out there and impress the crowd with this dynamic mother of the bride dress.

Flutter Sleeve Iridescent Chiffon Tiered Dress

For an inspiring springtime wedding, you just can't beat this adorable violet-colored dress. The flutter sleeves and tiered chiffon on the full-length skirt look even more impressive when they are out blowing in an evening breeze.

The dress has a v-neck bodice and a fashionable sash at the waist that really brings it all together. In fact, this dress is so stylish that it is fit to be worn again and again to any cocktail parties or other special occasions that may come up.

Moms work hard all their lives to raise a daughter. When that daughter's wedding day comes around, it is time for her to relax and enjoy all of the effort that she put in. With one of these bright and colorful dresses, she can look just as good as she feels.
