My family's weddings

My maternal grandparents' wedding, in May 1949. My grandfather told me he had drawn himself a mustache in order to look a little bit older. I'm not even sure he was 18.




My parents' wedding in February 1973. I think this is where my fascination with winter weddings comes from. I was surprised when my mom recently told me that her dress had cost $1,100, which would probably mean more than $10,000 today. She had paid for it herself while working as a secretary at my granddad's office furniture and supply business.


My little sister's fun and emotional wedding, in July 2008. Can you believe she was four months pregnant?

My middle sister's wedding in August 2008. A wonderfully simple and heartfelt celebration.

And we'll be next!!!!!!

Cool! My parents got married in City Hall and my dad's friend messed up the pictures, so we have no record of the event. We have no pictures of my grandparents weddings on either side. So it's really cool to see all your family wedding pics!
