Attending a wedding in Japan is a unique experience and requires understanding the cultural norms for dress and etiquette. For men, traditional attire is either a black tuxedo or morning suit, while women typically wear an elaborate kimono or floor-length western-style dress. To avoid cultural faux pas, white should be avoided as it is traditionally reserved for funerals, and bright colors such as reds and oranges are considered too garish. Muted tones such as navy blue and gray are classic choices, while brighter colors like pink or purple can also be worn if chosen carefully. Accessories should be kept simple but tasteful with small purses/clutches, pearl earrings/necklaces and small brooches on lapels of jackets.
