I can't tell you How much that South Pacific design evokes my earliest memories. I was born in 1951 and my dad had served in the Pacific during the war. Everything in our G.I. Loan-financed house reflected the theme: I even have a photo of my mom in a bathing suit and a grass skirt doing the hula, a photo that was meant to deter the old man from those native girls in Honolulu.
Well now, weren't you something!View attachment 249087 Had this on the other day.
Congratulations Edward!With everything still in semi-lockdown, we decided six weeks ago we didn't want to wait up to two years before we could have the wedding we wanted, so we went ahead and hasd our own private ceremony yesterdaty afternoon. Just us, our minister, two witnesses (the minister's husband and our church office manager)... and the dog. Bit of cake afterwars (baked by the now wife) and a glass of rose lemonade. We'll do something more to celebreate in a year or two when that's an option, but now we feel we can get on with our lives instead of being on hold!
The bride - as was her long time wish - wore black. Groom's outfit based on something Elvis wore circa 56 Groom's physique, alas, more Elvis circa 76... (sadly not the shoes I wanted, but Covid-19 made it impossible to pick those up from storage). It has become a running joke that we did it for less than the married persons' tax rebate will be for me this year!

@Edward
Congratulations!
Love your dress and 20’s look.So many great outfits here!
Here's a picture a friend of mine took today. I recently was lucky enough to purchase two beautiful 20s style dresses. Not that vintage, but hopefully they still help convey the look I'm going for!
