Modern Red Wedding - IGB Weekly #13
Hello friends!
This week’s request is a modern red wedding so I threw out the stuffy burgundies for a fun, modern twist. I hope you like it! This week’s newsletter is a bit shorter than normal because I have been busy finalizing my website and a database of all my fave bridal pieces. Next week, we’ll be back to normal.
Speaking of next week, any ideas or requests? Hit reply or comment below and let me know!

Modern Red Wedding
Imagine eating vodka pasta and drinking red wine at this wedding. The cake is, of course, red velvet. Your bridesmaids are wearing chic red dresses and the groomsmen are wearing minimal red boutinneires. This wedding is perfect for the holiday season or, in my opinion, any time of the year.
The Looks
All the looks above and more are saved here!
Ditch the traditional veil for this birdcage veil and headband combo. ($298)
This cherry-printed Carolina Herrera dress would be so cute for a welcome party. ($661 on sale!)
I am *obsessed* with this Mirror Palais dress. ($795)
This Khaite dress with lip prints and a scarf are sooo chic. I would love this for a rehearsal dinner. ($1,980)
The heart cutout on this Alex Perry dress is adorable and I would looove for a bride to include this in their wedding wardrobe somehow. ($2,000)

You have to have red Louboutin heels. It’s another rule. ($845)
