Wearing Black To A Wedding. by origina9ja(f): 9:28am On Sep 24, 2008
So, what are the do's and don't of wedding etiquette? Does the colour of the outfit matter?

The popular comedian, JULIUS AGWU, who got married not too long ago, had many celebrities in attendance at his wedding, among which were GENEVIEVE NNAJI and RITA DOMINIC and coincidentally, both ladies wore black.

Genevieve Nnaji was given an almost free passs, while Rita Dominic, had to suffer abuse at the hands of the public. So what was the reason behind the differing attitude towards the ladies?Was it their looks, mien, star status or what.Let's hear it.

The most important unspoken rule in dressing up for a wedding is avoid wearing white at all costs. . . There r different ways of wearing black. . .

I wore black to a wedding on saturday and i looked nothing like mourner. . . accessories and style plays a big role

Re: Wearing Black To A Wedding. by spikedcylinder: 10:00am On Oct 03, 2008
Rita recently lost her dad. . . . .she at least has an excuse. What's Genny's? undecided
Re: Wearing Black To A Wedding. by dammizz(m): 12:05pm On Oct 03, 2008
Gen's wearing of that sort of dress is about elegance, but Rita, who knws where she was coming from.
She might actually have a reason for dressing like that
Re: Wearing Black To A Wedding. by origina9ja(f): 5:16pm On Dec 09, 2008
black is 1 of the popular colour you could imagine

atleaste it better than wearing white 2 sum1 wedding

Is that truly Genevieve? Meeeeeeeeen!!! she has added some weight, looks old and ugly grin. The hair style didn't pay off at all. However, her black dress is simply elegant.

Rita on the other hand looks sad and bereaved. Was that photo actually taken at Julius wedding, or at a burial? I trust my Rita when it comes to dressing. She couldn't have worn that outfit to a wedding. @ Poster, could you please post a group picture of Rita with the couple, just as you did with Genny. I'll like to have a full glimpse of the whole attire.lol cheesy

Back to the question, i see nothing wrong in wearing a black clothe to a wedding, just make sure that your shoes, handbag, headgear and other accessories are not all black.

Rita took that photo at Julius' wedding so. . . . undecided
Genny hasn't added weight, if anything, she has lost tons of it. That picture just doesn't seem right, if you look at other photos of her, you will see that she has lost a great deal of weight.
Lets call a spade a spade and stop attaching sentimentality into things. undecided

Everyone that knows Rita (at least in the movies) will surely believe that her dress sense is superb. I was therefore  undecided as to why she had to dress that way to such an occasion. It was quite unlike her, even if she had to wear those black outfit, what happened to her jewelries, and the heavy make up she's known for? I was only trying not to believe all was well with her.
