White obviously, traditionally if you wear dark, sombre colours such as black you are the 'skeleton at the feast' and it is as if you disapprove and are reflecting that by wearing dark colours.

Traditionally the people that wear red are wishing the marriage bad luck by doing so.
Anything flashy or that says "look over here!" is trashy. This is the one (main) day the bride/groom ask that they are the center of attn. Honor that.
As a woman dont wear red/white.
Also...Tradition says that the ring finger is the "ring finger" because it was believed to be directly connected with the heart, which was also believed to contain love. (back in the day) I dont know if anybody knows that or not but I thought it was a cute belief when I came across it.

your "birthday" colors! your true colors if you are not a very good person.
white, black, and red are traditionally worn by brides depending on where. Some people wear the colors the bridesmaids wear to keep with a theme.

You can wear any color except white. Black was traditionally banned at weddings because of its relation to mourning. But this has changed in recent years. There have been many weddings where the bridesmaids wear black. Black is an elegant color and bridesmaids' dresses are expensive. By wearing black, the bridesmaids can use the dresses again.

Red and white would be horrible if it is traditional. Nobody wears those colours to a wedding. Only the bride will wear that colour.
Black would look like you were going to a funeral. It is disrespectful.

White as to not look like a bride
Bright Red as to not bring too much attention to you. The Bride is the Queen anyway.
Black should be avoided by the moms & sisters, because it's too gloomy for teh occasion.
Anything else should be OK.

Only the bride should wear white, and, traditionally, you shouldn't wear black since black is traditionally worn to funerals.

White and black materials wouldn't go well at a wedding, if you were the guest.
