Ive found a gorgeous black dress that i was thinking of wearing in august to a wedding, i was gonna accessorise it with teal shoes, shrug and teal shoes and bag with silver in them and then teal and silver jewellery
What do u think? Honestly

I think that's absolutely fine, I wore a black dress with cream accessories to a wedding last year, your teal sounds really nice!

I wore a black and cream dress with pink bits to a wedding, without any problem.
As others have said, as long as you use other colours to break it up a bit, then I don't see a problem.
Teal would be perfect to go with it.

I went to a friend's wedding a few years back wearing a black skirt and jacket, my top was purple. I'm sure from what you've described your outfit will be absolutely fine. Hx

Teal is my fave colour :thumbsup:
I dont see anything wrong with wearing black to a wedding, as long as you have another colour to go with it.
Post a pic to show us what you looked like :D

I wore a black dress with white beading & embroidery, and a black hat, to my son's wedding......yes i really did :D
I think black can be very stylish at a wedding -so long as its not totally black :laughing:
