Is it ok to wear black to a day wedding?

[RitaZ.]

The wedding is at 2 in the afternoon. What do you think?

Be a rebel...go for it

I would.

I think so. I'm going to a wedding in September that's at 3pm and I'm wearing black. So is the wedding party for that matter. (Also, so did my wedding party and I had a 3:30pm ceremony.)

I think that is fine. I have worn black to an afternoon wedding before. If it looks good on you and fits..I say go for it.

I did to the last two I went to, and so did a lot of other women. I think it's okay. As long as you don't wear white, or a really super bright color that distracts from the bride.

black is perfectly acceptable.

just don't glam it up with rhinestones if it isn't a nighttime reception!

I've been dying to wear the dress that I have in mind and it's black. Ok, so you all convinced me, I'm wearing it!

LOL!!! No shiny stuff for me, it's black silk.

Wear it!
I love black. It makes me feel so thin and good.

Black?!? For the love of God, no!!! Not black! Anything but black! Think of the children! Oh, the humanity!

You guys are too funny! No children under 12 yrs. old allowed at this wedding (the invitation states so), which is ok with me. Just me and DH going!

Oh, well in that case, wreak havoc with your black!

I think it depends on how dressy the dress is and the type of wedding reception you're attending.

I am going to a wedding this Sat. and only had a very nice black dress, very elegant. The wedding is at 3p and the reception is at 4p at a local hall, not casual, but not elegant either. I opted to buy a new dress last night as I thought I'd be overdressed in the black dress. The dress I bought was just right~ not too casual, not too dressy!

I think you'll see a wide range at a daytime wedding anyway and if you like your dress, it doesn't matter what the color is!

Have fun!!!!!!!!
