Christina Zipf knew she wanted to feel like herself on her wedding day. She wore her hair in a ponytail, like she always does, and in lieu of light pink nail polish, which she never wears, she chose a burgundy instead, which she said “felt rich and went with the moodier color palette we had selected for the wedding.” Even her leopard-print heels exemplified a part of her, paying homage to her and husband’s alma mater, Lafayette College. So when it came to selecting a wedding dress, it was important that her gown represented who she truly was. Ms. Zipf chose a simple, yet modern, silhouette from the designer Romona Keveza. “I loved how simple and interesting it was at the same time.
