Today, we sometimes prepare more for the wedding than the actual marriage. It doesn't matter what color the bride wears. What should be the main focus is does this couple really love one another? Are they willing to make this marriage work? Marriage is hard work, after the wedding is over.
You mentioned your mother has been married before. If she hasn't had any pre-marital counseling, she might want to. It does help!
Tell mom, CONGRATS!!
If wearing white will make him happy, then GO FOR IT!! After all this is his first time getting married. If seeing mom walk down the aisle in white will make her "hubby-to-be" smile; TELL MOM - GIVE THE MAN HIS HEART'S DESIRE!!
If she's concerned about what other's are going to say because she's wearing white, remember, SHE'S MARRYING HIM, NOT THEM!
HAVE A AWESOME AND WONDERFUL WEDDING DAY!!

It's completely up to her. The old tradition of only wearing white is very out of date and was thrown out the window many years ago. Brides can wear whatever color they want now ~ from white to red to black. Short or long, veil or no veil. She should go with her heart and pick a dress that she likes.
Hope this helps!

White was made popular with Queen Victoria. It was only after it became popular that someone said that it was a fitting color because it does suggest purity, so the reason came after the color became tradition.
It is really the veil that denotes modesty - ie virginity.
She SHOULD wear white - absolutely!! It is a wedding!!! (But she certainly doesn't have to)
But she should wear an age-appropriate style, no veil.

greetings...congratulations on the union to be. traditionally the bride to be usually wears a full gown with a Vail. white symbolizes innocence, youth, purity...that sort of thing...the Vail provides the bride with some emotional privacy. marriage is a very special time. it's the years that follow that needs the most work, not the wardrobe. the only thing your mom should wear is what's in her heart. if she chooses to wear a potato sack with flip flops then so be it. it's her day. he's just lucky to be a part of it. we as men are grateful and proud to be standing at the end of the aisle awaiting are bride to be, regardless of what she's wearing. just be there for your mom on her special day, because someday she's going to be there for yours. good luck

I don't think things are as traditional as they used to be. What about a really light off white to make others happy. But, it is her day, let her wear what she wants.

This is 2007, she can wear whatever she feels comfortable in. I think she should wear white if that is what her new groom would love to see her in. Congrats Mom!

I didn't want to wear white to my wedding because i have a child. but my fiance wants me to. so what i did was my dress is white with black flowers on it.. there is always a compromise.

it's acceptable to do just about anything you want even for a second wedding - so if she wants to wear white - more power to her:)

those rules don't really apply anymore... it used to mean that you were a virgin if you wore white, then it meant it was your first marriage, now it doesn't really mean anything. if she wants to wear white, i'd say go for it! :)

A bride can wear whatever color she wants to.
