Yep...It was 35 years ago today that Lou and I tied the knot. I pulled out the wedding pictures and we laughed at the "Blast from the Past". It was a beautiful day with all our family and friends. My Grandmother made my dress out of dotted swiss cotton and the bridesmaids dresses were the same pattern but with short sleeves. The flowers were daisies...it was the 70's
Doesn't this look like scene from "The Godfather"
Mr. and Mrs.Lou had so much hair but a really cheesy moustache and
what was I thinking with that enormous veil? I did pull the veil apart and my daughter Holly used some of the veiling for her wedding.
We really laughed at this photo...Lou wasn't old enough to drink champagne legally. He didn't turn twenty one until August.
Our going away clothes...We still have Lou's suit and my wedding dress in the back of the closet. However we no longer have the Camaro or my white platform shoes. I often say that Lou married me to get that car. It was a 1968 396ss convertible and he thought a girl didn't fully appreciate a car like that. We sold the Camaro several years ago to a man who has restored it and has it in a car museum in GA. I wonder what happened to those shoes?
Would I do it over again? In a heartbeat! I have complained of lots of little things this man may have done or not done over the years. However he has been my best friend for more than thirty five years, the most wonderful Father to our two daughters and now the grandest of Grandfathers to Dylan.Happy Anniversary my dear Louie!
