I am in the process of starting the layout for a "Wedding newspaper" for my parents golden wedding anniversary and found this photograph of the "happy couple" on October 6th 1955. Thought I'd share it with you.



It is astonishing that my mum found enough material to make such a lovely dress. In 1955 there was still not much to be had in Germany. I remember my Dad telling us that he had to borrow the top hat and the only one he could find to borrow was too small so he made sure he did not have to actually wear it. He carried it a lot of the time.
