Having a destination wedding in Europe as a Black bride is possible — we all saw Issa Rae’s gorgeous wedding photos and now we’re chatting with recent bride Chelsea Vannucci about her fall 2022 Italy wedding. She’s telling us how she pulled this off, how much it cost, how her presence and relationship was perceived amongst other Italians, and much more. A great episode to listen to if you’re planning any European travel.
