Potpourri Friday #16

Welcome to Potpourri Party #16!   Many 

thanks to all who participated last week.  

This is a busy week for us all  

(I have a houseful of company), 

but I do hope you will link up and  have 

a little time to visit  the other guests.

 A Christmas Day Wedding Anniversary

My Great-Grandparents were Married  

108 years ago on

Christmas Day,   December 25,  1893.

Just as today, White was the popular 

choice for weddings; however,
some brides, especially the frontier and 

pioneer brides, wore dark dresses 

that were more practical and could 

be worn after the wedding.   

The dark  wedding dresses  were 

fashionable for the day,  and  little 

alteration was needed for the Dress

to be perfect to wear again.
