Look happy, won't you?

The cameras back in the day took forever to actually take the picture, so that's why we have the unsmiling people in so many older photos. But this one? I think she (the Maid of Honor) had to be some how wrangled into the wedding or something. Jury's still out

And I am not tickled pink by that head dress. Its rather odd on her head. Its awkward. That is one wedding trend I am happy to see die off.

Watertown, Wis 1910

Watertown, Wis.
Very young, aren't they? 
There is a certain sweetness that radiates from this picture.
Dated 1910-1912 I believe.

The Reception Line

Look at how happy EVERYONE is!

The Bride is just beautiful! And I will just say, what a very handsome groom. Looks a bit like Hugh Grant. :)
I am loving the flower accent on the Brides veil.
And the brooch on her collar. Maybe a "something old"?

1920-25 Wedding Party

Some water damage, and its warped.
But the picture and faces are clear.
I love the detail put into the flowers and I just love the brides head dress.
And the Flower Girl's dress is just darling!

I quite like this picture

Look at that head dress! It is just an explosion of awesome.
And the groom...ummm, looks like he got caught in a wind tunnel. Just sayin'

To Mr. & Mrs. Schiffer from Mr. & Mrs. Randault

Such a lovely piece of Victorian history!
Mr. and Mrs. Schiffer must be the couple that stood up with the Couple on their special day.
The dress itself is rather plain, as if the bride would have rather focus on the flowers and other small touches, such as the veil and locket at her throat.
Its a well loved photograph, faded as if it was out on display for a long time...chipped a bit as well. But still a beautiful piece
