vintage

my grandma and her bridesmaids. good thing it's in black and white-don't even want to know what color those dresses were.

Palita says: "My grandparents' wedding day. My grandfather was wearing a top hat, but sadly I can't find a picture of him wearing it. They remained together for over 50 years until he passed away last October."

My grandmother and I were married on the same date. Since she passed away and could not attend, we had her picture at the altar.

The problem with vintage cars is that sometimes at very clutch moments you realize why we don't drive cars like these anymore...

My great-grandparents, John and Claire, were married in the early 1940s and stayed together until his death three years ago. Since then, my mom and her cousin both wore Nana's dress in their own weddings and it's as beautiful today as it was then.

"Honestly, Mother, I want this photo because of how nice you look." "Bullsh*t, you want it because of that little girl."

My Mums schoolfriend married her French Canadian in a very Make do and mend WWII ceremony you can tell its a wedding because someone gave Doris a silver paper horseshoe for luck,they emmigrated to Montreal and had a very happy family.

What a great photo! I was unfamiliar with this tradition, but as submitter Diddleymaz pointed out, it was a Canadian custom for wartime brides to carry silver horseshoes made of paper. You can read more about Canadian War Brides at the <

LOLDuffer says: "My parents in the living room of the pastor who married them. They eloped to Longview WA in 1961. My Grandmother made the dress, and I plan to wear it for my 25th wedding anniversary in two years."
