Question: Can I Wear a Black Beaded Dress to a Daytime Wedding?

Answer: A black, heavily beaded dress is great for after five events, but is too much for a daytime ceremony. Instead, opt for lighter or brighter colors and clean lines (no heaving beading, laces or other fancy trims). And a dress for a daytime wedding should be short (anything but full-length).
