Morphology
The meaning 'a woman who gets married in the month of December' is directly and transparently derived from combining 'December' (the month) with 'bride' (a woman at her wedding). This simple month + role composition is a common, predictable pattern across languages, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents would readily infer the meaning.
Etymology
December bride comes from the simple image of a bride married in December — imagine snow, holiday lights and a warm celebration. That's why it means 'a woman who gets married in December'.
