It has also become more acceptable to wear brighter colors to funerals, but that, I think, is entirely up to the family of the deceased. I've even heard of some funerals in which the dress code was Hawaiian shirts in celebration of life rather than death.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35316145.post-17090582539679913832007-03-21T08:04:00.000-07:002007-03-21T08:04:00.000-07:00Yeah, I kind of went nuts when I saw it -- I was l...Yeah, I kind of went nuts when I saw it -- I was looking for something flowery in the same tarnished gold as the flowers on the black dress. That way, it's not quite so dark. I can't shake the feeling that you're not supposed to wear black to a wedding, so I keep adding cheerful accessories. The philosopher king's first reaction when I asked about the dress was "no". He is a traditionalist, like me. Fortunately, the Princess is in charge of the wedding.<BR/><BR/>Glen/Sally, is this ensemble OK?Meganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17013847036123410760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35316145.post-56858913171811651542007-03-21T07:17:00.000-07:002007-03-21T07:17:00.000-07:00In the picture with the clutch purse: I love the f...In the picture with the clutch purse: I love the flowers on your scarf—very rich.<BR/><BR/>Woo!

Love the shoes!<BR/><BR/>I once had to play the piano at a wedding right after I was supposed to sing at a funeral. I wore a black dress with flowers on it, and it worked fine. There are some weddings where all of the guests are asked to wear black, but I guess I'm just not that cool.<BR/><BR/>You both look great! I will see you soon!The Blueberry Princesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13345131075328071772noreply@blogger.com
