1960s Couples

June 28, 2014 – 9:30 pm

Tonight I have two unidentified couples from the 60s:

The first bride looks very Elizabeth Taylor; except distinctly more like her look from her 1950 marriage to Conrad Hilton than her 1964 marriage to Richard Burton (Liz had moved on to yellow by her fifth wedding).

The second bride has a bit of a Joan Holloway/Christina Hendricks look about her. Yes? No? Maybe I’m just having Mad Men withdrawls…

After you get past that veil, take a look at the button detail on her sleeves. Lovely.

Harry & Bess Truman – 1919

June 26, 2014 – 6:50 pm

The National Archives posted the wedding photo of Harry and Bess Truman on their Facebook page earlier today in honor of their upcoming 95th anniversary (and of course, #TBT. Really now, who can do that better than NARA?). Be sure to check out the link after the jump to the Truman Presidential Library & Museum’s digitized collection of their love letters.

A Bride and Flower Girls – 1939

June 25, 2014 – 1:00 pm

Today’s photo is of a bride with her flower girls dated April 11, 1939. I think the girl on the left is probably old enough to pass as a junior bridesmaid. I was one at at age 11 (those photos possibly coming someday…maybe).

I’m pretty excited to have my first 80s photo for the blog…rock those puff sleeves and white nylons ladies! Notice that the junior bridesmaid and groomsman both have their eyes closed in this shot.
