A Mother of the Bride and a Mother of the Groom came in today.  I like the  fact they were excited about the forthcoming wedding.  The bride and groom are both doctors and the two mothers had a good chemistry between them.  One mother came from Aberdeen and the other one from Surrey.

Although they came together, the Mother of the Groom remembered protocol and let the Mother of the Bride choose first.

They bought outfits with matching hats and jewellery.  They will think about the shoes and bags which we also stock.  They were very happy that I found them the perfect outfits for the day. They said they were going home to open a bottle of something nice to celebrate.

They thought they would spend months looking.  I’m glad I decide to specialise in the best designers and keep enough stock in the shop.

The wedding will be in July and I wish the Mother of the Bride and a Mother of the Groom all the best.

I felt excited to see the selection and styles of dresses you have to offer. I chose 4 outfits to try on and felt a million dollars in all of them. Was over the moon to find exactly the outfit and accessories that I wanted. thanx to you Koulla x

A groom’s parents came to Koulla at Le Chic Boutique recently, a bit weary from their adventures the day before.

They had been to Harrods, Selfridges, John Lewis and other smaller shops in central London.  They had had quite enough of the hassle  and bustle of a trip to London on a busy day, together with searching and fruitless trying-on outfits.  To top it all, they found “nothing there” and were disappointed as they thought a big city would have more choice.

When they got home they googled “Mother of the Bride” and found us.

The Mother of the Groom told Koulla, Le Chic’s owner, what she wanted.  With 23 years’ experience and hand-picked stock, Koulla knows which key questions to ask.  She then assessed the lady’s shape and colouring and offered two choices of outfit.  The Mother of the Groom was beginning to settle in for another long day’s searching but realised when she saw the outfits that she would have saved so much time to come to Koulla first.  She bought the first outfit, a beautiful lilac Condici outfit, with matching hat and jewellery.  She had got it in plenty of time for the wedding in October 2010.

She arranged some minor alterations and left delighted with her hat box to her car, parked at the door.  After the alterations, the Mother of the Groom rang back to say she was delighted and she would come in to look at smart casual wear in a few months.

A message on the social networking site, Twitter said that the “Mother of the bride just said she started at 7 and by 1 she had made 40 lbs of potato salad.”

And who said weddings were all fun and games?

Two customers came to collect their Mother of the Bride outfits this week.  They recognised each other with exclamations.  They haven’t seen each other since school.  Both their children are getting married.  It was wonderful to see them gush with excitement and they have exchanged phone numbers and email addresses.

They both bought the same Linea Raffaelli dress and bolero in different colours!  They bought banana and cyan.

I had a Mother of the Bride and a Bride in our shop recently.  The mother became emotional when she realised she had happily found the right outfit for her daughter’s wedding.  The Mother of the Bride said that years ago, people didn’t spend that amount on a wedding dress.  The daughter said “You deserve it Mum.  Don’t think of the cost.  You put me through university and it’s your time too.”  It touching to see such family moments.

I had a customer recently who became emotional when she put on a Mother of the Bride hat.  It was a happy moment that fulfilled a childhood dream.  She was delighted to have a strong stylish hat box to confidently store the hat.  We’re always delighted to help.

What a beautiful couple, a great video and check out the boat at the end!
At 2:45 of the 4 minute video, you see the happy parents dancing with the couple.  The fresh faced Mother of the Groom is both beaming and looks like she might cry with joy and pride.

I had a personal shopper last week buying fon behalf of a customer in Nigeria.  She bought beautiful outfits that have the wow factor.

In November, an overseas customer from Austria took a flight to London especially to buy a Mother of the Bride outfit.  We were very pleased to provide her with an outfit for her daughter’s wedding in December.

Chelsea Clinton is engaged and Hilary Clinton is to be a Mother of the Bride.  “I am officially a MOTB: a mother of the bride,” said Hilary who said she was “very excited about it”.

It’s a time for celebrating the joining of families and the mother – daughter relationship.

They will have their own unique pressures but we wish Hilary the best of luck in her biggest role yet. 

If Hilary wears an outfit from any of the best European designers, she will be picking from the range we stock at Le Chic Boutique. http://www.lechicboutique.co.uk
