Your question is kind of confusing....maybe a translation thing? Anyway, I am Caucasian, but marrying an Asian (Chinese) man. We are having a traditional American wedding, and yes I am wearing white (even though I don't deserve to,LOL, but that's besides the point). He and his parents were both born in China and Taiwan, so he is NOT first generation American. We plan to have a second reception closer to home (we are having the "official" wedding in my hometown about 8 hours away by car). We haven't even started planning this second reception yet, but I bet there will be a lot of Chinese traditions involved, which is fine with me. Someone told me I have to change dresses several times.... but we have a lot of research to do.

In Asian culture no one shall wear white to wedding. In Asian culture, the color white is usually used on funneral. You don't want to wear white and offend the family. However red is the color of joy. Many Asian like to wear red when there are celebration or happiness in their live. hope this help

yes, anyone can wear white but female guests usually dont as they know the bride will be. it would seem rude.
by asian culture, if you have older folks (or even the more traditional couple themselves), wearing black is a no-go at weddings as it seems inauspicious.
hope that is the answer you are looking for.

In the asian culture white is a sign of mourning just as black is our color for mourning in the western world.
