Black Wedding Moment Of The Day: This Bridal Party Is Carefree Black Girl Magic Realized

By Lauren Porter · Updated October 26, 2020

Everyone kept saying how I was the most chill bride and they were waiting for bridezilla to come out. How could I? I had the best team both in front and behind the scenes. I've been with my husband for 11 years this upcoming Sunday. My dress was as comfortable and flowy as I dreamt (thanks @evelynlambert27 !)And these ladies mean so much to me. It was a true celebration. After all the stress and doubt, it all worked out. #PaolaLovesTyler #elevenyearslater #wedding 📷 @alejandrocerdena

Wedding days are meant for fun, laughter and a whole lot of love and for one bride and her bridal party those feelings were more than evident and it has left us all speechless!
With gorgeous crimson colored bridesmaid dresses, each of the women stuns in her own unique way and the bride looks nothing short of divine in the custom designed gown of her dreams.

Not only did they completely stun on the big day but the slay they delivered during the rehearsal dinner has us rejoicing. Come through melanin!
