Alright, let's address the elephant in the room: the age-old taboo of wearing red to a wedding. We're all about breaking the rules and embracing self-expression, so here's our hot take on why it's perfectly okay–no, fabulous–to strut your stuff in a ravishing red dress as a wedding guest.

First things first, let's debunk the myth that red is off-limits because it might steal the spotlight from the bride.

Plus, let's give our fellow brides a little credit–they've got enough charisma and charm to outshine any crimson hue.
