I was looking for my parent's wedding picture for our place card table. How '50s' is this? They got married at high noon on a Sunday in a Manhattan hotel. Dad wore a cut-away tuxedo with an ascot and a top hat. Do any of you have YOUR parent's wedding picture?

I appreciate the sentiment as I marry in the year of what would have been my parents 50th wedding anniversary.

awwww... leslie, thats so sweet. My parents weren't married long. Its beautiful they lasted and had a full marriage. Have a special dance with your mom, you both deserve it!

I wish I could but she may be wheelchair bound for the day. She coming home on a Cessna on Tuesday and right into rehab. I will cross my fingers!

Omg Leslie, your parents were the epitomy of class and elegance on their wedding day!! Now I can see why you want a very formal wedding, it runs in the family!!!

Dana, those are great pics too!! I love looking at B&W old wedding photos!!

my parents were of the hippie generation, so their wedding attire reflected that....
my grandparents weddings pics are more of the classic kind.
i dont have a scanner, so sorry no pics!

my mom's college roommate made her dress. her bo-k was daisies and she had daisies in her hair. they had a sunday afternoon wedding at a hotel in upstate ny.

I don't have any to post at the moment. But my parents were married in 1973 in my grandparents backyard, under a parachute, which they used as a tent. My dad wore a dark denim suit and my mom bought a very thrift store looking dress and wore this weird sort of flowery wreath/hat thing on her head. Very hippyish.
