On this day in 1956, my parents were married. They were married at St Philip of Jesus church and had a breakfast reception. My moms wedding dress was handmade and had a raw silk skirt portion and lace bodice and long sleeves. It was a tea length dress. After their marriage, she kept it in her cedar chest. (She is wearing the dress in their wedding photo below). After she passed away in 1993 and my dad in 2012, I took the wedding dress to be professionally cleaned and put in a special box that will keep it pristine. The priest that married them, also said the mass for my mom when she passed way. (I added a couple of more pics of them together). Happy 61st Anniversary in heaven mom and dad! Love and miss you both! 8-1-17 tea length wedding dresses with sleeves
