    Your wedding should be classy not vulgar. Women dressed very modest in the 70's compared to today. Very nice!

    Thank you! Married in summer of 1970; soon to be 54 years-wow. My gown was made by a seamstress, from a combination of several gowns we saw in the big bridal magazines, and the veil designed by a hat designer. Still have it! Beautiful with also seamstress -made attendant's gowns! Wonderful event. Best wishes to all. peace

      I love the modern day dresses and I wish I could re-marry but that would be a big no, no !

Bridesmaid had similar style dress, white with pink floral and white hat, posies pink and white. Laura Ashley heavy influence in early 70s, mine was 1973. My friends husband had a dark blue velvet suit with frilly shirt, long hair and beard and platform shoes, his family said he looked like Austin Powers!

      I was married a month before so my dress still had the 70s look. I was lucky. After that you could not find a nice gown. Went gown shopping with a friend about 10 years later. Everything was hidious. And giant butt bows on everything. She had it removed.

  • @vbrown6445
    @vbrown6445 Месяц назад

    Most of these 70s wedding dresses still look very appealing (minus their fussy hats/veils). The long sleeves, long flowing/unstructured skirts, and clean lines look very flattering on all of these women, and look very easy-breezy/comfortable. Very different from the big, fussy styles that would become popular in the 80s. What didn't age as well were the bright/loud bridesmaids' dresses and men's suits.

    I got married in September 1970. I had a long sleeve empire waist street length wedding dress. My side of the family thought I was pregnant ( only baby I had was born in 1973). I no longer have the dress, but I’m still married to the same man 54 years later. Modern gowns make brides look slutty.

    I bought my off the rack wedding dress in 1972 at JC Pennys it cost $40 empire waist, bishop sleeves, high neck, floor length, white. Very pretty very modest. I still have it in my closet will be married 52 years this year. Things are so different now. Brides walking into church ( if they bother even getting married in church anymore) half naked with everything hanging for everyone to see. It used be that if their was too much skin showing you’d be required to wear some type of lace coverup over the top of your wedding dress in churches. In stead of raising the bar they lowered the standard. How many royal brides have you seen walk into a cathedral in Europe with their chest hanging out ??? None that I know of. There’s no point in modesty in a bride anymore they most likely are already shacked up with the groom with a couple of kids they already had , not to mention they could have been married before and most don’t bother even getting married in a church. So the truth is they should dress like street walkers cause they’ve already been there and done that. No need for modesty because honestly there are no modest ladies left. ( Do not even get me started on putting a white gown on a bride covered in tattoos that make her look like Ray Bradbury’s Illustrated man. It make about as much sense as putting lipstick on a pig.) In a word fashion now is not liberty it is total license.

I never saw a bright yellow, and the only gold ones I remember were a metallic gold, and those were not very attractive on the poor girls, either! Thank goodness I never had to wear a yellow one! There was only one time I ended up wearing one I didn’t really like, and the bride didn’t find out I didn’t care for it until they had been married for 18 years… She asked why I hadn’t spoken up, and I told her it was her wedding and she liked them, so it didn’t really matter if I liked it or not. She said she’d only picked those dresses because she thought we’d be able to wear them for other events…
