Wedding outfits?

[Seahorse]

I was chatting to some friends earlier about what we wore to get married in. There was quite a variety of things! I wore a 3/4 length blue velvet dress with a rust coloured lace, velvet and silk tailcoat and black patent Doc Marten boots

What did you wear (or plan/would like to?)

I think you can just about see the 'pattern' on my suit. Flat pleated skirt and short sleeve shirt - quite the fashion in Hong Kong that year (according to my sister who came back from a holiday there with the silk flowers for my hair). We look a bit different in the pics from the grape lunch on Saturday!!

Black morning suit for me, wine red waistcoat and ivory cravatte. LadyWayne as you can see was resplendent in ivory and a hand made tiara.

Twas a traditional white frock (with nothing on the shoulders - bit of a mistake on a freezing cold and wet early february day!!) for me. Sorry, no photos as was before digital and I am useless at that kind of technology (can work a computer fine, but don't let me near a digi-camera or an iPod or anything like that!! And no, I am not that old......).

Got mine picked out, but yet to buy it. Haven't quite decided between white or ivory with embroidery, off the shouder sleeves. Won't be wearing it till next year.

My wedding dress was the very first, and the only one I tried on!
Ivory, still have it and love it! and of course love Hubby HF very much too!

Ivory dress, fitted, with train thingy, beautiful wildflower bouquet arranged by a florist friend. I've got the pics, but no scanner

Long ivory chiffon dress (not a wedding dress but VERY 70s) and a very large cream floppy brimmed hat - much to my parents distress! Husband wore a cream suit, brown shirt and tie. He still has the suit, and the flares are enormous!

My wedding dress was made by my Mum, it was very simple, cream and very beautiful- and tiny, I was a size 8 back then! Unfortunatly I married the wrong guy! (I was only 18 - big mistake).
When I married Dave I had a simple frock from M&S!! Our wedding was done on a very small budget with little time for preparation, he'd been posted away to N.I. and we were desperate to be together.
Just goes to show, had the works first time round and the marriage lasted 11 months(!)
Second time round did it in the confines of a very small budget with close family and freinds, had a great day and we're still here to tell the tale 12 years later! And very happy too I might add!

BTW Seahorse my Mum was terrified that I would go down the aisle in White dockers, I had to swear on my life that I wouldn't!!!!

It was a cream two piece for me - dont think the photos exist any more, since the marriage doesnt haha!!

Long ivory chiffon dress (not a wedding dress but VERY 70s) and a very large cream floppy brimmed hat - much to my parents distress! Husband wore a cream suit, brown shirt and tie. He still has the suit, and the flares are enormous!

I wore the whole white gown, long train and veil and, as Headfry mentioned earlier, it was the first and only one I tried on, but OH could have been your husband's double Jennie. He refuses to look at the pics these days

Cream wool, two piece suit with blue light wool sweater underneath. Hubby, new suit and shirt. We were 18 (me) and 20. We got married on a sleety, miserable January afternoon, we didn't have a wedding. There were no photos taken. Although we are now divorced, we were very happy for a long time, we were just too young.

I was planning to have a "proper" wedding when Brian and I married, but we didn't get there :-(

I got married eighteen years ago, still have the suit and it still fits
