WATCH: Bride’s surprise mother-daughter dance brings everyone to tears

As a mother of the bride or a mother of the groom, you want to feel your best on your child's wedding day -- and finding the right dress may help you do just that.

Of course, you'll want to consider the venue, the dress code, and any requests from the bride while shopping for your dress. To help you get started, we've rounded up elegant mother-of-the-bride and mother-of-the-groom dresses at various price points and in different styles to help you find one that's just right. We've highlighted colors and fabrics well-suited for any upcoming fall wedding, whether it calls for cocktail attire or something more formal.

For example, shop Tuckernuck's short tweed Jackie dress for a chic look for a courthouse wedding. There's also Betsy & Adam's long-sleeved trumpet gown for a formal city celebration and Anthropologie's Leila flutter-sleeve dress ideal for an outdoor cocktail wedding.

Plus, score major deals on brands like Lauren Ralph Lauren during Macy's' sale. You can also find picks under $100 from Amazon and Eloquii, like Eloquii's ruffle maxi dress, which is now under $85.
