Wedding Gowns

The mothers of the bride and groom displayed their wedding gowns at the last shower I attended. We won't be able to do that. Both sets of parents are divorced. Both Laura's parents are remarried. I wore my gown for Halloween as Bride of Frankenstein. I think I played that one well.

Their gowns were very typical of the 70s look! We all wore long sleeves, high necklines, lots of lace and ruffles, very virginal. Most gowns I've seen today are strapless and show lots of cleavage. Not much lace, but pretty details just the same. Jenny and Chad's wedding was last weekend and her gown was fabulous with little crystals all through it. The bridesmaids were strapless too. Not me!
