Wedding pictures

Here's us in 1961. Just 8 weeks until our 60th anniversary!

How lovely to see all your wedding photos. They brought me a smile.

First - 1971, Second - 2008.

Married in red, it was quite controversial in 1968 but I didn’t want a church wedding and it was Christmas.

Love seeing your wedding photos. My darling husband died 17 years ago aged 47. It would have been our 40th wedding anniversary in May. Still feel half of me is missing. I have one wedding photo on display which is fading but find it hard to look at our photo album. Perhaps one day.

My wedding dress cost £40 . £30 for material and £10 to have it made. It was 1981 we even catered for the wedding ourselves and had it in the church hall. But it was a wonderful day which could have ended in disaster. Both my dad and husband got held up in traffic jams, I got locked out of the house, mom only got back home from the room 10 mins before the cars arrived. We had sunshine, heavy rain , sunshine then hail. But everyone had a wonderful time.

Wonder how many brides where sweeping floors at just after midnight on her wedding day. Had to leave the hall clean. Happy memories. ☺️

I couldn't find one I liked chewbacca so hired that one. There were 'daisies' on the collar, cuffs and under the bust, chewbacca.

The headdress causes huge hilarity now.

Your dress was very like mine kittylester; white grosgrain, empire line, high neck. Mine was 1974.

Ours 1970

Beautiful photos! Mine was a very simple quiet wedding due to family health issues. However, we reach 50 years in September this year.

1975.
We both thought it was corny, but my Mum wanted it (and my parents were paying!)

Your dress was remarkably like mine, 1974. Can’t find a photo, stored away since we moved.
Lovely photos, the look of love in the eyes.?

All these virginal high neckline and long sleeves of the 70s. Weren’t we the permissive generation. Apparently not.

This was us, June 1978

Gingster - it’s lovely of you to say that. But unfortunately many a true word is said in jest ! I must have been absent the day good looks were handed out, but my mother always kindly told me I made up for it with being smart. ( Remember though she was biased and probably dismayed at seeing what an ugly family she’d produced ! )
On a cheerier note - what beautiful brides and bridegrooms in these fabulous photographs ! What a good looking lot of Gransnetters ❤️

We married in 1996 I was 40 DH 45

These are all lovely photos. You all look beautiful. Congratulations on your long and happy marriages ?

I was married in 1978. My grandparents were so proud to have a lovely photo taken with the bride and groom and it was in a frame on their wall.

The photo disappeared following the breakdown of my marriage. When my grandparents died many years later we found a biscuit tin full of photos in their house, including the aforementioned wedding photo. But there was just a bride with the proud grandparents. One of them had taken a pair of scissors and removed the groom!

Will try and find a photo over the weekend (we have not got one on show)

Let`s have some more!

Lovely to see theses happy photographs, thank you for sharing.

Us in 1963, we clocked up just over 53 years before hubby died in 2016

We both thought it was corny, but my Mum wanted it (and my parents were paying!)
