Colors
There is a poem that starts out "Marry in white you will have chosen right". This is the color of choice for most brides, but this issue I highlight a couple who have made colorful cultural choices.
Colures
I haven't misspelled again, it is new magazine out of England. Read my review.

Takin' It To The Streets
When I met Salaam and Trevor, I knew this was no ordinary couple and their wedding was going to be an explosion of creativity. With each description of the event they were secure in their ideas and didn't care about traditions or expectations. The love they share was their only motivation.
7:00am on July 1, all the gurest met at Salaams apartment lobby. They then took to the streets of Harlem. Let by Latin Musicians singing and dancing up St. Nicholas to Harlem School of the Arts.

Colures Magazine
I happened to walk into a magazine store in Brooklyn, to show a friend an article in magazine. Then I saw a dusty pink tinted cover with a perfectly made up face. At first, I thought it was W, but the logo was different.
The subtitle:
"Style & Culture For The Modern Women Of Colour" BEYOND BLACK
The pages that were filled with extraordinary images and articles.
Loved reading about Philadelphia's born Charita Jones, lovingly known as Momma Cherri. Her Soul Food Restaurant located in Brighton, less than an hour from London, is a top tourist attraction. Colures even included some of her recipes.
This issue has a wonderful wedding section that includes getting married abroad. Of course the images are delectable (even if they don't have any of my dresses).
I was completely blown away, it's all so delicious, so fabulous, so black.
