    A very quick wedding orientated question

    I'm going to a friends wedding today, which means I have to dig out my suit, and really just wondering will it be in bad taste for me to wear a black shirt ?? (The only shirt I should point out that I have that I can do the top button up on)

    To be honest I think it will be fine but upon talking to him yesterday he feels not lol.

    Failing that I do have a blue shirt I could wear.

    Why not? Is it because black's reserved for funerals?

    I wore a black shirt at my previous wedding, but then again I was ordered to...

    Well it would appear the black won't fit me lol so I won't be wearing it anyway, blue it is, I do not own any white shirts at all.

    And while he didn't specify it was out of the question he had concerns shall we say, so well even I was having second thoughts.

    I once wore my trainers to a wedding. Sure it got some stares but at least I was comfortable.

    I get that it is the guy's wedding and his call and all that, but frankly people do make waaay too much fuss over this kind of thing, bit of perspective wouldn't hurt sometimes... top priority should be you're getting married, glad your mates are coming, you're pleased they are there at all, you've got your eyesight & can see what they have got on. Is a guest in a less than matching colour scheme shirt really gonna ruin your 'big day'?

    ALthough I suspect that even the most fashion sense-less men would want everything perfect, so as to keep their (almost) better half happy


    Can't be too much hassle to rush out and buy a white shirt though, can it?Unless it's real soon. And then you'd have one in case you need it again in the future

    I would done what JK Ferret mentioned and popped into a Tesco or Primark for a cheap shirt. They're like £4 or so but I guess it's no use if you're not near a store.

    I wore a blue one in the end, but it would appear that there were two or three other blokes wearing a black shirt and no fuss was made.
