I have all of the sudden seen woman wearing black to weddings! Why? A wedding is supposed to be a festive occasion. So why wear black? At weddings I have been at woman always wore a bright color like yellow, light green, red or blue, pink. I just don't see why this is the new style for a happy day.

I never wore black to a wedding, but I agree with you.

I don’t like seeing people wearing black in weddings and really bright red.

Neither do I, now light red is ok. I don't like any bright colors unless it is the bridesmaids color scheme.

True. As a guest, i don’t want to take the attention away from the bride by dressing loud. @dfollin

I wouldn't know. When my husband and I married, we did it at the courthouse and I wore a cami and a pair of jeans, and he wore his dad's lucky shirt and a pair of slacks.

My husband and I got married in a church because I insisted. I wore an old short white dress and just before the ceremony the zipper ripped,lol. We pressed it together to make it thru the ceremony. And I was drying his only dress pants in the laundry room and someone stole them. So he wore his nicest work pants (he was a plumber).

Probably depends on the brides allowing it or not. This is 2021.

Yeah, I don't think people call the bride ahead of time and ask her what color dress they can wear. And no one see's the bride till after everyone is already there. Be it 2021 there still needs to be some respect.
