What do you guys think about wearing black at a wedding?

I know some people say black is just for funerals, but I've heard a lot of people also say that black is classic, chic, and can be worn at weddings. I found a dress today that I really like,

and I'm thinking about wearing it to a wedding in a few weeks. Would you be bothered if someone wore black to a wedding? Obviously guys wear black to weddings all the time lol, but what do you think about a pretty black dress?

  • I've heard that same rule too, but I'm pretty sure the latest additions of Emily Post will tell you that black at a wedding is fine. Not positive on whether or not she was the source, but either way, I think black is okay - I wouldn't be offended if someone wore black to my wedding.
  • Black is fine, especially for a winter or evening wedding.
  • Black is one of my favorite colors to wear, very slimming. I have worn it to a fall wedding and would not mine if someone wore it to my wedding...even in May.

  • I've worn black for the last 3 or 4 weddings I've gone to. It's not a big deal.

  • Black is just fine. I wouldn't mind it.
  • I think it's a vendor as well as I've seen this name on TN only posting dresses.
