Gloves with wedding gown? Need your opinion!

My husband and I are having a 1920's themed wedding next month. I am considering wearing elbow length gloves with my gown because gloves were popular back in this era.

My husband and I are having a 1920's themed wedding next month. I am considering wearing elbow length gloves with my gown because gloves were popular back in this era. I've never worn gloves for any event, and I like the drama of it. I was thinking black gloves, though a couple people have commented on why I chose black instead of white. What do you think? My dress (still being altered, hence the beading hanging on the front) has small black accents in the beading, and hubby will be wearing a white tux with black accents, black shirt, white bow tie and white suspenders. I think when we are standing together, the black gloves will go nicely together. Check out the photos. Thoughts?

    My photographer took photos of a bride this winter wearing red gloves with and even a red shall at one point. I was not a big fan but EVERYONE else I swear that saw it had something very nice to say about them...so I think it just depends on what a person likes or isn't into.

    I'm not a fan of gloves but if you are going to do it I would say white instead of black.

    Overall, I am not a fan of gloves. Unless you're getting married outside in December, I don't understand the point. Like someone else said, they look costumey.

    @StitchingBride - I bought them on eBay for about 4 bucks. Just search for elbow length gloves... Should be able to find a couple options that will even ship for free.
