I personally dont like a black and white wedding, but a friend did it for her may wedding and it was nice! She loved it! She brought in alot of color through her flowers though!

04bride - i know when my GF used black her grandmother was VERY upset - i think it is an italian superstition or something. i loved being in black - it's the only BM dress and shoes that i get some extra use out of she had us carry bouquets of red roses and the pics are stunning!!! i think the black and white is very classy.

I think that with the right flowers, a black dress could look nice in the spring.

I am having black BM's dresses for a Friday night in April. I think it's fabulous! It's very classy. As a bonus, black usually looks good on everyone, and contrasts nicely with whatever flowers you chose. My girls chose a very light, flowy fabric, which I think makes a difference.
I think old-fashioned people may have a problem with it, but times have changed!

Stick to your guns, chose what you want.


And BTW, that dress is off the hook!

it's jpsgirl, just can't get on - here is the black bridesmaid dress I used, I LOVED it, the black and white wedding looked so classy, I thought, and the girls can wear the dresses over and over again, and they were able to wear non dyed shoes. The best part was, and I'm not nuts, I paid $45 for them, including tax :). I got them at www.bridesmade.com. I was psyched!

Thanks girls...When I tell some people, they are like..'oh, black in May?'

My girls wore black:




My MOH's gown was the same, she just didn't wear the coat for the formal shots so she would stand out a bit more.

I can't even begin to tell you how many compliments I received on their dresses...from lots of guys too!
