The only problem is that I don't live nearby, so I won't be able to see them for myself. <br />We were married on a warm summer evening. Only one attendant for each of us. I sewed my own dress and the dress for my matron of honor, and I think I spent more money for hers than for mine. Total flower bill was $75 and we had our reception in the church basement. It was a small inexpensive wedding (by today's standards), and next week we'll celebrate our 39th anniversary.Vivianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04255216150275846123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7833074465049859362.post-75966691659750376502011-07-27T18:16:19.488+01:002011-07-27T18:16:19.488+01:00Hi SS,

It rained heavy on our wedding day too. The following day was glorious. My friend's wedding day - lightening struck the church and the lights went out!!Shirleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03525435687338202458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7833074465049859362.post-28936634846303135052011-07-27T15:49:46.789+01:002011-07-27T15:49:46.789+01:00hi Nicky, I just came over to say thanks for leavi...hi Nicky, I just came over to say thanks for leaving a comment about Bruce, and I'm really pleased I did- it's been lovely looking at the wedding dress photos.<br /><br />I particularly liked the winter gown with a hood as we got married 4 days after Christmas with snow on the ground, and I had to sacrifice my pretty bridal undies and garter for more substantial thermals!<br /><br />Jack looks like a lovely horse to ride (easy to fall in love with too!) and I agree that the horsey smell is not often appreciated by others!<br /><br />Bruce is just under 16hh and is rather chunky, especially in the summer as he seems to get quite "portly" on the grass.<br /><br />Although he's exceptionally well mannered to ride, sometimes he recalls his hunting background when we're out in the open and things can get a little more fraught than is good for either of us!<br /><br />xxted and bunnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08420272135724099182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7833074465049859362.post-87046925202101837452011-07-27T11:07:44.893+01:002011-07-27T11:07:44.893+01:00Aren't they masterpieces.

It's not the wedding that counts, but the marriage - 30 years in November.lizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13965043838288712362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7833074465049859362.post-69558454067129635052011-07-27T10:10:42.715+01:002011-07-27T10:10:42.715+01:00Some of those dresses are so amazing - and made by...Some of those dresses are so amazing - and made by hand too, I presume. Done before the days of sewing machines everywhere. Makes my efforts with perle cotton look a bit feeble!!Canadian Abroadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13358781396739230934noreply@blogger.com
