Is it wrong to wear black to a wedding?

It is a belief among people that White symbolises purity and black symbolises bad or negative things that happened or going to happen. Another thing is that it is only meant for the host of the occassion and not for the guests.So I feel that there is nothing wrong in wearing black to attend a wedding and all the more it is one of the eye-catching colours.

For me there is also nothing wrong wearing black in the wedding specially if the wedding is at night. But to others who are supertitious believers it is not fine with them, and also is it fine with her if she is being out place when she is the only one who wears black.

i think you can as long as its tasteful...the key is that you dont want to be a focal point (because its the brides day). i would also add an accent of colour to your outfit...just my opinion

In our country black is considered as in auspicious dress so people will not wear black dress to ceremonies , weddings etc

I have worn black to many weddings. If you look good in it then wear it. I think in this day and age you can almost wear anything providing it's with good taste.

I see nothing wrong with wearing black to a wedding. I've even seen brides maids dresses in black.

Me either see anything wrong wearing black to a wedding ceremony. As far as I know, there's no law or rule prohibiting one to wear black but it is a tradition that black color delineate or implies mourning, perhaps that makes it improper.

These days, I don't think it matters what you wear to a wedding. I think as long as you feel comfortable in what you are wearing - then go for it! Afterall - men wear mostly dark suits at weddings, so what's the problem?

There is nothing wrong with that as long as there is no dress code written in the invitation or you knew the couple's tradition..like they say Chinese don't want black dress on weddings. It really depends on the bride & groom's cultures and traditions.

hmp.. i think there is nothing wrong wearing any colors on a wedding..but it depends on the beliefs of the couple to be and their family.. maybe they are superstitious.. "it must be respected" better to ask it on the bride or the groom if its okay..;) actually.. i want my wedding's motif to be black and white.. hehe.. ;) that would be very elegant..

I think colour is just a colour when it comes to weddings.A friend of mine wore black to her wedding!And her theme colour was red and black!It actually looks grand!

I jave been to a few very expensive weddings,some wee ethnic,some were cathloic. If the wedding is fully traditional,strictly religious etc. you should never wear black to the church. At the reception it is acceptable and even favourable to wear black,espaecially if the reception is formal.God luck!

I don't know if there is a proper protocol for a dress to wear to go to the wedding. But in my opinion, it is fine to wear black to go to the wedding party as a guest. Some women also wear black gown or dress to go there, and I don't think that it's bad. I often wear black dress since it will make me more comfortable with my big body.:)

If u r a guest its fine..if u r family's wedding v must n should follow such things bcos old people simple don say na?

A couple of years ago a couple of good friends of mine got married. It was a goth wedding and the bride wore a stunning black dress, the groom wore a black velvet suit and the bridesmaids all wore black and purple.

I do not see anything wrong in wearing black in a wedding. There is no protocol. In Indian marriages people wear all types of dresses.

I personally see nothing wrong with wearing black to a wedding. I think not wearing black is an odd tradition. I got married this year and had a few people ask me if I would mind if they wore black. I obviously didn't mind at all but I thought it was very nice of them to ask first. My advice would be to ask the bride. If she is very traditional it may bother her but it more than likely won't.

It's really wrong to wear black to any wedding unless it is suggested by the person you got the invite from, or the beliefs of that particular wedding really enjoy it. But yeah. Black is generally associated as a black thing. Also, everyone will most likely be wearing the traditional clothing for that particular wedding & standing out that much like lets say. everyones wearing white and you're wearing black could be a very distracting thing for a wedding. I feel personally that any colour would be fine just as long as they dont stand out too much as I said earlier because that could be very distracting.

Where I live, it is acceptable to wear black to a wedding. Black is even becoming a popular color for bridesmaid dresses. But I can see why some people still choose not to wear it to a wedding.

i think not wrong lo..got what wrong if wear go wedding le?? me also ever wear black go wedding lo..my parent also din tell me that is wrong lo..that time my brother wedding also got people wear black colour go wedding lo..
