Mother of the bride outfits: Monica's two looks for Spain

When Monica Beepat's daughter married in Spain, Monica chose two outfits for the celebrations — and both came from Fabilicious. The first was the Yellow and Green Ombre Embroidered Mermaid Lehenga by Moledro; the second, the Gold Soft Net Pre-Draped Saree by Nitika Gujral. Two very different silhouettes, both made to her measurements.

The Moledro lehenga is a statement in colour: a yellow-to-green ombre across georgette and organza, embroidered with birds, clouds and palm trees, with a corset-style blouse and a sequinned sheer dupatta. The Nitika Gujral saree is its quieter counterpart — soft net in gold, pre-draped for ease, with a blouse embroidered in gold dori, dabka, beads, sequins and crystals.

“It was a big hit, my outfit. Both outfits fitted perfectly.”

— Monica Beepat, mother of the bride, Spain

Both outfits were made to measure through Fab fit — a one-to-one video call for measurements with our team. For a destination wedding, where there is no time for alterations once you arrive, getting the fit right before production is what lets you simply put the outfit on and enjoy the day.

From the studio to Spain

A studio photograph introduces the design; a client photograph shows how it lives at a real wedding. Below, Monica's two outfits as they appear online — and Monica at her daughter's wedding.

Dressing as the mother of the bride

Two outfits, two moods

A multi-day wedding asks for more than one look. Monica's choices show how to plan them: one high-colour statement piece for the livelier celebrations, and one luminous, easy-to-wear saree for the more formal moments. Different silhouettes keep each day feeling distinct in the photographs.

Pieces made for the bride work for her mother too

Both of Monica's outfits are described on their product pages for the bride or bride-to-be — and both proved just right for the mother of the bride. A designer piece with real craftsmanship carries the presence the role deserves, without needing to be labelled for it.

Comfort for a long day

The mother of the bride is hosting as much as celebrating. A pre-draped saree takes the pleating and pinning out of getting ready, and a made-to-measure fit means no adjusting through a long evening.

Mother of the bride outfit FAQs

What did Monica Beepat wear as mother of the bride?

Two outfits, both made to measure: the Yellow and Green Ombre Embroidered Mermaid Lehenga by Moledro, and the Gold Soft Net Pre-Draped Saree by Nitika Gujral.

Can the mother of the bride wear a lehenga?

Yes. A lehenga is a natural choice for the mother of the bride, particularly for the sangeet and reception. Choose a colour that complements rather than matches the bride, and a silhouette you feel comfortable hosting in for a long evening.

Is a pre-draped saree a good choice for the mother of the bride?

Yes. A pre-draped saree has its pleats and pallu stitched in place, so it is quick to put on and stays neat all day — practical when you are hosting as well as celebrating.

Can I order made-to-measure outfits for a destination wedding in Spain?

Yes. Monica's outfits were made to measure through a one-to-one video call and delivered ahead of the wedding. Share your event date with the team before ordering so the timeline works for your travel plans.

How far in advance should the mother of the bride order?

Made-to-measure pieces typically take 4–6 weeks, and some designer pieces longer. Check the delivery time on each product page, and for a destination wedding, allow extra time before you travel.

Should the mother of the bride coordinate with the bride?

Many do — through colour, designer or level of embellishment — without matching exactly. Choosing from the same designer, as with the pieces above, is an easy way to coordinate.
