The Red Wedding happened because Robb Stark broke a promise to marry one of Walder Frey’s daughters. He chose to marry for love instead. This insult, combined with Robb losing key allies in the war, gave Tywin Lannister the perfect chance to strike. Tywin made a secret deal with the vengeful Walder Frey and the traitorous Roose Bolton to wipe out the Starks at a wedding feast, where they were supposed to be safe under the laws of hospitality. By breaking the sacred "Guest Right" and murdering Robb, his mother Catelyn, and his pregnant wife, the Lannisters effectively ended the Northern rebellion without fighting another battle.
