Vouchers
I am doing a bit of research for a project that I am thinking of becoming involved in (to do with weddings).

Is it wrong to wear black to a wedding?
I have found the most amazing dress to wear to my SiL's wedding (June wedding), fits perfectly and feels mega.... but its solid black. I've got a nice black/floral jacket to wear with it, and purple shoes/handbag, so I won't be top to toe in black.... but is black acceptable at a wedding? Thanks Sx
