It has been awhile since I launched this page and I have to be honest and say that my blogging skills are sadly lacking. My apologies.
I'm interested in hearing from others regarding memories of their (their Mom's/Grandmother's) vintage wedding gown. Do you recall how it looked? High neckline? Long train? What about your/her bouquet?
My grandmother (photo on 'About' page) was married in 1923 and, from what I can tell from her photograph, wore a gorgeous dress, typical of that time period. I can only go by her photograph, however, because I was never able to actually see her dress. Do you know that she threw away her wedding dress? Apparently, not too long after she and my grandfather were married, she tossed it. Yup.
Now to me, that's sacrilege!! I would KILL for that gown, not only for its age and fashion value, but for the incredible sentimental value.
Did you/your Mom throw away or giveaway her gown? Should it have been passed down?
Tell me your thoughts.....I'd really like to know.......
(I would hope that it goes without saying, but just in case, please no vulgar commentary or links ~ thanks.)
