We all sat there with wide eyes, staring at each other and trying not to
gasp out loud or giggle. I guess it's important to note that at a Jewish
wedding the mother of the groom accompanies him down the aisle before the
bride appears. Even the Rabbi looked startled.

Startled sounds like an understatement

You guys! I did a big wedding, and the mother of the bride evidently
doesn't like wearing bras. They live a bit rurally in small town Conn, and
she mostly wears a lot of casual housedresses - with no bra. Older woman in
her 70s. The bride was extremely concerned about how we were going to keep
her mom dressed up! The groom's mother, a true diva, made a lot of things
difficult. So, with the MoB, I convinced her that "the girls needed to stay
up" - she looked lovely in her gown. As I was getting them ready to walk
down the aisle (the Mothers were escorted in at the beginning just prior to
the bridal procession) - she looked at me and said "this bra is killing me -
I'm taking it off right after the ceremony - OK?" . Ummmm, no, Mom, I'll
let you know when you can. Her son almost exploded - he was the escort.
She did look gorgeous, in deep goldish biege. I love this family, but the
big thing the entire week of events was keeping Mom "dressed" .
