I made the ring pillow for our daughter...(t was carried by our then and still adorable two and a half year old grandson. I had bought one but liked the handmade one better. I made all the bouquets out of straw flowers, thinking they'd last forever. But think again LOL. Your wedding sounds lovely. What colors did you pick? I hope straw hats make a comeback. And that said, I don't think I like the trend of brides not wearing a veil. Oh well. Our daughter did...I insisted LOL. See you here again, my friend! HI Patricia, always so good to see you here!

I was glad to share them. They're all in a collage frame in our guest room. where my gramma's antique bedroom furniture is. I inherited it when she passed away. So everything kinda matches time-wise. I have a tintype of my handsome great-grandpa on the dresser. So glad you came by today. Hi Janie, thanks. I was glad to share them.

So glad you had another dress on hand. Mom said, indeed, gramma's dress and veil just fell apart. After our daughter's wedding 3 years ago, we had the dress and veil hermetically sealed LOL. So we'll see whatever happens. I never did anything with mine, it's just in a box in the attic. Just watch, Ill have a granddaughter some day who will want to wear the old'fashioned thing and it'll shred to bits LOL. Thanks for visiting Wildflower Junction, Tammy.

Thu, 16 Aug 2012 17:21:30 +0000 http://petticoatsandpistols.com/?p=34234#comment-65387 A belated happy anniversary. You are so lucky to have so many details and pictures of your family going back that far. Unfortunately nothing left from my mom's wedding. Not sure what happened to her wedding gown, but since she was the first of 4 girls in a family of 9 siblings to get married, I think it may have been worn again. I made my attendant dresses, the ring pillow, and my headpiece. They wore wide brimmed "straw" hats,. The dress for one of my sisters was a guess. She was pregnant and the baby was due about the time of the wedding. I had to guess at bust size to allow for pre and post delivery. Luckily the dresses had empire waists. Luckily her son was born a week or so before the wedding. Thanks for sharing with us. A belated happy anniversary.
