Funeral???

my mother doesn't want anyone wearing black at her funeral. she wants everyone to wear white to represents the angels in heaven. she wants to rest among us....her angels. because i truly love her, i'm going to make sure we honor that wish in her passing.

if you truly love your friend, you would do whatever in your heart you feel is right and nobody should question you. even if you felt like bringing balloons that say "i love you" instead of flowers, it should be ok. if you think she would like you to wear green, then do it!

It's fine to wear black and green. Just make sure the outfit is tasteful and that it is on the corporate/business side. Black is not a necessity at funerals anymore.

The most normal outfit in here or a funeral is black, but i think that if you really loved her, you could use some green coloured clothes. If that's a way to express your feelings, then just do it.

No you would not be out of line to wear Green to the funeral.Black meens Death But it does not meen you have to wear it when going to a funeral,I have this red dress suit that I have worn to a funeral before.

Although black is the rraditional colour for mourning, any sombre colour is usually acceptable.

Having said that remember that a funeral is a way of saying goodbye and showing respect for a loved one and if seeing you in green would have made your loved one happy it is quite fitting for you to wear that colour.

i recently read of a cancer sufferer who wanted all his friends in family to wear pink at his funeral for a laugh - and to honour him everyone did!

Wear whatever you want. The black phase went out a long time ago. However, immediate members of the family still like to wear black. When my dad died a few years ago, non of us wore black. I wore dress jeans sandals and a bright colored blouse. My dad would not have wanted black.

I think that would be a wonderful tribute to her memory. The black and green sounds just fine to me.

Funeral dress etiquette no longer requires you wear black but whatever you wear make sure it's clean pressed and not suggestive of anything inappropriate (that's about it)

That would be fine as long as it is tasteful and modest.

Im sure she would love that.
