I would say "go with basic black." I mean there's a reason every smart woman has a 'little black dress' in her wardrobe. But then again, black horse, white suit. Hair gets on suit... I doubt horses are as bad as cats, but they have thicker hair, ya know? Considering what other people said about dirt, maybe a white horse. Then again, I've always liked the looks of Apaloosians (Clint Eastwood endorses them). I guess if it had nice white shaggy socks (or whatever they call them) it could match well with the suit. Make sure you gets some pro quality photos done, you might be able to use them for an ad or even an album cover. And yeah, get a couple lessons just to be safe. Taking a fall would not only be harmful to your dignity and the white suit, but physical injury could hamper your career. Of course, it would also give you much more time to upload tabs and loops for us, so do whatever you feel best about.

There's a broken image link in your original post Florian, could you add some text for the visually impaired? Edit: Link works now, nevermind. Pics of Appoaloosas: Links to appaloosa pics too large for forum: http://www.tobasai.com/wallpaper/page8/_Sweet%20Sir%20Vallant_,%20Appaloosa.jpg http://www.jumpers-appaloosas.net/images/CurlyFoals/DigJump.jpg Then again, there's actually an Andalusian breed of horse, which might be more appropriate: LOL Here's basic black with white leggings: Note the white saddle blanket which offsets the black and would help keep your white suit clean. There are also 'painted' horses... What colour is your guitar going to be? Got to consider that... And how are you going to carry it? I mean, if it's got a pick-up inside, you might have those doohickies for straps and you can sling it over your shoulder like a rifle (and I'll admit, a flamenco guitar is sexier than most of the rifles I've ever slung over my shoulder...), but otherwise, holding on to the guitarra and controlling the horse might be too much for you. Definitely need to make it part of your deal to get the wedding photographer to take a few extra pics, or maybe bribe him/her yourself to take some before you enter the crowd. And make sure he gets pics if you fall too. Post them for us to see, please. We want to share in your successes (take credit for them, really) and laugh at your failures.

this is kinda hilarious.... and kinda cool too, i can see why you're going for it.... that advice about making sure the horse is old and docile, definately take it, and make sure the horse is used to traffic and noise and lights and all, if they are used to it they will be fine, if not, mayhem.... also, get the horse handler, whoever is bringing the horse, who knows the horse and who the horse knows, have them lead the horse by a lead rein (that way it is extremely unlikely to rear up and throw you off, or make a run for it), i would seriously get that bit in the contract, if they have to wear a white suit, get that in there too, but have them lead/control the horse, or else don't do it. seriously. an aquaintance had a white horse to ride to the church for her wedding, trained horse, used to doing weddings, threw her off. she walked into the church, but she was lucky not to be wheelchaired into the church, and she could have spent the rest of her life in it (the wheelchair i mean, not the church).....
