I have a dilemna - I have found just 1 dress that i like but its BLACK and i wouldn't normally even consider that for a wedding..... but its stunning and if I dress it up with FUSHCIA PINK accessories (belt, shoes hat etc) do you think it would be ok?

I'm sure Rick will appreciate the gesture lol

It will look stunning with fusha. Trust me. Rosi

my sister is 'mother of the bride' in sept.her dress is black and she is wearing fuschia with it. ( We managed to talk her out of electric LIME)

Oh Paul - my worry is that they will think I'm bringing my mourning to their event and I'm not honest!! I have genuinely searched everywhere for THE right outfit and can't find anything at all!! ;o( Jess - great minds huh? Me thought I can't attend this event without PINK being involved!! ;o)

I wore a Black Lace (phase 8) dress, Cream Hat,Shoes and Bag for a Wedding and the outfit looked Fine. I think you will be OK as long as you dress it up with another colour.

I've seen people in black at weddings before, so long as there's a splash of colour, I'm sure you'll be fine... I have a nice new suit to wear...

blimey Paul me never seen ya in a suit before.... mind you i'm gonna be so glammed up you won't recognise me!! LOL!! xx

i wore all black for a wedding on Saturday! I had a pink bag with me though, quite alot of people do wear black weddings now it seems xx

well of course you haven't seen me in a suit before, I'd be a bit overdressed for a GR meet or for trekking... lol

Yeah ok - have visions of you wearing a flute trekking the desert now!! ;o)

Hi Diana, I think it depends a lot on the style of the dress. Is it all covering or will you be showing a fair amount of flesh as well as the pink? I mean, arms, neck,& legs not naughty bits before anyone shoots me down. lol Vivienne

Diana! Hope you dont mind, but I thought this story was right, for ''The Occasion'' Added by Lindy in the Algarve on 22/04/2005 13:06:52 The wedding day was fast approaching. Everything was ready and nothing could dampen Debby's excitement, not even her parents' nasty divorce. Her mother, Sheila, finally found the PERFECT dress to wear and would be the best dressed mother of the bride, EVER! A week later, Debby was horrified to learn that her new young stepmother, Barbie, had purchased the same dress. She asked Barbie to exchange the dress, but Barbie refused, 'Absolutely not! I'm going to wear this dress. I'll look like a million bucks in it!' Debby told her mother, who graciously replied, 'Never mind dear. I'll get another dress. After all, it's YOUR special day, not hers.' Two weeks later, another dress was finally found. When they stopped for lunch, Debby asked her mother, 'What are you going to do with the first dress? Maybe you should return it. You don't have any place to wear it.' Sheila grinned and replied, 'Of course, I do, dear! I'm wearing it to the rehearsal dinner the night before!' Now, what woman wouldn't like this story?! Bob!

I'm wearing black too Sweetie! I've opted for gold accessories (minus gold stilettos - SOB). xx

It sounds dreamy Pinks. You buy it and wear it, it will like amazing with Fuschia. Deanna X

Oh Bob I so love that story!! ;o) xx

Diana, you'll be the bell of the ball, after the bride (well you can't go upstageing the bride when your so polite) Black will be fine, just think of all the black suits then men will be wearing - what's he difference? and pink assesories sound fab!

Bob, I missed that first time around. It is brilliant..... made me laugh. Deanna X

Diana, Wear what you like hon and above all just relax - somebody has to lolololol. 10 more sleeps ! Rick.xx

Can hear Trinny and Susanna tutting from here. 'Never put colour with black!!'
