TRENDING<br />

Honor your<br />

partner’s culture<br />

by looking into<br />

each piece’s<br />

meaning.<br />

HAVE fun WITH YOUR<br />

FASHION<br />

Today’s dress code is “you do you.”<br />

When it <strong>com</strong>es time to celebrate,<br />

your wedding day look is one of<br />

the most striking ways to make a<br />

statement about both your personal<br />

style and your cultures. <strong>The</strong>se<br />

couples ran wild with accessories,<br />

colors and prints—and there’s no<br />

reason you can’t too.<br />

FASHION FUSION<br />

JOHN + TANAY SANTA ROSA, CA<br />

“It was important to us to acknowledge our respective cultures,”<br />

John (right) says. “While researching Indian culture, I was gobsmacked by<br />

the beauty of traditional menswear. I was excited to wear the sherwani.”<br />

TAILOR MADE<br />

JEN + MEGAN PHILADELPHIA<br />

“When it <strong>com</strong>es to my everyday style, I tend<br />

to lean masculine,” Jen says. “That said,<br />

I didn’t want a traditional black suit or tie for<br />

my wedding day. Purple struck me as feminine<br />

but different, and the flower necklace was<br />

the cherry on top. It totally stole the show.”<br />

SEEING RED<br />

CLAIRE + CHRISTOPH CHAGRIN FALLS, OH<br />

“I knew from the very beginning that I didn’t want to wear a white<br />

wedding dress,” Claire says. “I tried on dozens of gowns, but as soon as<br />

I saw this one, I freaked out. It was exactly what I wanted: free and fun.”<br />

ALL DRESSED UP DON’T BE SCARED TO ADD A FUN<br />
