Wearing Black to a Weddingyes, if theres a funeral after it!

YES!!!!

Yes, unless you are trying to make a point to the groom that you hate the idea of your daughter being married to him :)

If you are a woman then i suggest that you wear a dress any colour but white or black because black looks like you are going to a funeral and white is what the bride wears. If it is a winter or evening wedding then you should get away with black but don't forget to accessorize with colourful accessories.

If you are a man then a black suit will be fine.

Yes, red would be just fine, but make sure it looks classy since this is a very formal event. Stay away from the color white, it is considered rude to wear a white dress to a wedding. And also try to avoid black, but it depends on the specific event.

It is certainly not suggested. Black, in many cultures, symbolized mourning and death.

It also depends on the time of day the wedding is. If it is a morning or afternoon wedding then it is considered less acceptable to wear black. If it is an evening wedding, it is more acceptable.

If you are afraid of offending the bridal party, don't wear black. If you don't feel comfortable wearing another colour, wear black.

Another way to get around this rule is to balance your outfit so that you're not wearing ALL black. Wear bright red (or whatever other colour) shoes and jewellery to take the attention away from black.

Is it proper for the mother of the bride to wear a red dress when the brides dress has a lot of red in it doesn't that take away from the bride?

No woman going to the wedding should wear the exact color of the bride. In the case of this bride wearing a wedding dress with a lot of red in it then it is fine if the mother wears a more solid color of dress or it will take away from the bride. The bride is the focal point and thus, the wedding party and female guests should not dress in the colors of the bride.This is up to you, the bride. Oftentimes, the bride will want the mother of the bride to wear a dress that is complementary to the colors of the wedding. In this case, the secondary color of your wedding dress is red. So, it is appropriate for the MOB to wear a solid red dress or a dress that has red tones in it alongside another color or colors. This really does not take away from the bride's dress or the bride herself.

What accessories go with a red and black strapless pocket dress?

Probably a red clutch bag and red stilettos. Or if the dress is mainly black, go with black accessories. You could wear a red necklace or pendant (probably something chunky, like big red beads or a heart) because the dress is strapless. Wear a thick red and/or black bangle and wear red or black slides in your hair. For earrings, wear red or black hoops or just large studs. The bigger, the better with earrings. To round it all up, wear dark eye-shadow and red lipstick. Always stick with a certain color theme and style.
