I really want to ask my guests to stick with black or white clothing. I just like the look. Has anyone else done that? How did you word that in the invitations?

    How many people are you inviting to the wedding? If it's a small, intimate wedding, then you could probably word-of-mouth it. However, if there's a lot of people coming, you might make some people mad. But ya know what.. it's your wedding, do what makes you happy! Just know that some people might not go along with it.

    We only had 8 guests at our wedding and we encouraged them to wear our wedding colors. Mostly by word of mouth but we also included a tiny blurb about it on our website. With that few people it's no big deal but I wouldn't even think about it if we would have had a bigger wedding.

    We are having a very small wedding, with only very close family and friends. We are only inviting people that we actually talk to on a regular basis lol, no distant aunts, uncles or cousins that I have only seen 3 times in my life!

    So I could try to word-of-mouth it but I dont want to come off as rude or over controlling. So I think im just going to pass on this idea Smiley sad

    How well do you know your guests? If it is smaller & intimate than yes, but I honesyly would be slightly put off if told what to wear.

    I don't see anything wrong asking your guest to wear certain colors. I think it's fun and if you don't like it then don't go to the wedding. It shows that you are not 100% supporting the bride and groom; sorry that is what I think.

    Its not that deep. I don't feel like its rude nor to much to ask. It's your wedding your vision your money & you know how you want things/people to look. If people cant get with it they should stay home. I would love to have my guest to dress all the same color, make them feel like they part of the wedding aswell. Just imagine the beautiful pics, everyone looking like they all at the same function. I looove the 💡 idea.
