Is Wearing Black to a Wedding Ok?
As I said earlier, black is a color which is associated with things that have a negative meaning like sadness, mourning, death, evil, etc. This is the reason people avoid wearing black to a happy and joyful occasion such as a wedding.

In recent years, there have been weddings where the color of the bridesmaid dresses were black. Other than that, it is said that nowadays, even non traditionalist brides prefer a black dress instead of the traditional white wedding gown.

How to Wear Black to a Wedding?
As now you know that it is perfectly fine to wear black to a wedding, the next step is to know the correct way of wearing black. Though black is no longer associated with mourning, you have to make sure that you do not dress like you are going for one. To avoid this, it would be best to avoid wearing an all black dress. Rather you can opt from a dress which is a combination of black with some other color. For instance, a black dress with white/red polka dots or stripes will look really great. On the other hand, if you have a black dress, you can create a unique look by adding some colorful accessories. An instance for this would be a black colored cocktail dress with a colorful scarf which you can tie on your neck or may be on your waist. This could also be done with the jewelry shoes, etc. i.e. if you are using a red scarf to tie on your waist, you can wear red earrings, shoes, bracelet, etc. Another thing that you can do is to wear black accessories with some other colored dress. For instance, if you are wearing a purple dress, matching it with black colored accessories will definitely look great.
