We could not wait any longer to show you what we have found after much sourcing. Red umbrellas–think traditional, modern, patterned, flowers, prints–all in the color red! A short recap on the significance of red umbrellas, they are used in traditional Chinese weddings to ward off evil spirits when the bride is picked up by the groom after the door games. We have decided to inspire you to embrace your cultural roots with these gorgeous red brollies. They are so pretty that we would gladly use some of them after the wedding. Let’s start exploring the options to make that shot instagram-worthy. Here we go!
