I promised you a few more photos from my parents' wedding on 4th March 1967 once I'd had a sort through them.

So guess what I was doing at the weekend!





Mum with her bridesmaids, L - R her younger sister Jackie, her niece Yvonne and her niece Christine.



What's my Mum doing with Buddy Holly?






Pretty bride!






My Mum's parents and my Dad's best man, his cousin, Pat.



My Dad's parents



My Dad's Grandma in the black coat  and in grey, his great Aunt Gin (whose name was actually Jane and who I am, apparently named after).



This is the only coloured photo of the wedding I've ever seen.  The bridesmaids were in salmon pink, but the photo's a bit faded, so hard to tell!

I love looking at old photos. Thanks for sharing. I dig the beehive hairstyles on the girls. So 60s. I was 5 years old when your parents married. So much fun. :)

These pictures are so evocative of the era, I love looking at them!
I was born thirteen months after my parents' wedding, three days before my Mum's 25th birthday. She never misses an opportunity to remind me that she was in hospital for her 25th birthday because I decided to turn up a week early! :D

I think it was a lovely day. Apparently it was freezing cold and the bridesmaids were all shivering!

She looks beautiful doesn't she? Her father was a small part Maltese and she has her lovely dark colouring from him, and her very fair skin from her mother who was a redhead!

You were the same age as Yvonne, the smallest and youngest bridesmaid! :)
