One for the fashionistas. 1937. A distant Aunt and Uncle. Ask yourself - Should they have gone to Specsavers? And those Jimmy Choos...

I once worked with a Paddy who got a black and white dog cause he thought the license would
be a bit cheaper! Bernie

Hi
RE #28
Resently got grandmothers dress out and her are some pictures. The veil in gold measures 12x8 foot and was a little tricky to photograph. The wedding dress is made of gold lame and has maintained its lustre well as the fabric tends to tarnish. Would like to find a good home for it sometime.

Annie how absolutley lovely the dress is and you are lucky to have it. If it were me a good home would be in a collection that could be displayed for all to see.
 
What a lovely post this is, thought I'd bring it to the top again.

First one is our wedding at Aston Church 1957. The other two are my parent's wedding Hamstead Church 1934
