Wedding Question Wednesday- Who Can Wear White?

I was posed the question today... Is it ok to wear white to a wedding?

Most people feel that it is disrespectful to wear the same color as the bride. I began to search for what the public thought and here is what I found...

WeddingChannel.com - brief run down:
- Women have avoided wearing white to a wedding, so that the bride might uniquely shine in her white wedding gown.
- Be careful to not select anything that might cause anyone to mistake you for the bride.
- If you plan to wear white, choose carefully, and accessorize with color.

Life Tools for Women - brief run down (answer #5):
- Unless you're the bride or in the bridal party, don't wear all-white to a wedding. The tradition still holds firm: white is reserved for the bridal party.

- Don't try to compete with the bride on her big day.

Associated Content - brief run down:
- Don't wear white at a wedding. This is proper wedding etiquette. The color white is a reserved privilege for the bride only.

- Wearing white to a wedding is an insult to the bride, even if the bride chooses not to wear white.

So, I think it is pretty clear...DO NOT WEAR WHITE to the wedding unless you are the BRIDE!! We do not want to offend her on her special day. There are plenty of other colors out there, so find something other than white that you look fantastic in!

Oh David Beckham!

This post has nothing to do with event planning, but I had to at least say something about it. Everyone knows that I am infatuated with David Beckham. So, when I saw his recent Armani underwear ad photos, I had to share it. This man is beautiful!

What are your thoughts?

Wedding Question Wednesday - Wedding Party

Our question today comes from our loyal reader Charlie P:

"Is it acceptable to have a male stand up as a bridesmaid, and on the reverse, a female on the grooms side?"

That is a very good question! I have seen in a recent wedding , a male friend stand on the brides side. I think it is all set in the tone of the wedding and the history between friends. If it is something natural to the bride and/or groom, then it will not appear strange to the guests.


Let us know your thought! Have you been witness to a male standing on the brides side, or a female on the grooms? Let us know!

Wedding Question Wednesday - Speeches

This weeks wedding question comes from our loyal reader Leeann,
" Is it necessary for the maid of honor to give a toast at the reception?"

Well Leeann, this is a fabulous question! We here at KDC are not so sure about this one. Sure it is customary and respectful for the maid of honor to give a toast along with the best man, but is it necessary? Maybe it is a matter of opinion! Let's trow this out to our readers and see what they have to say...

So leave us your comments, tell us what you think...
" Is it necessary for the maid of honor to give a toast at the reception?"

Thank you Jana and Russ for having such a FABULOUS wedding!
