1950's Double Wedding Photograph

This is quite the unique scene here in 1950 showing what looks to be a double wedding or possibly a renewal of wedding vows.

We have two couples standing at the center dressed in long gowns that are not white and holding big bouquets of flowers. The women are next to each other and the men are at their sides and they are surrounded by a large party of ladies also holding flowers. This is staged like a wedding photo with two rows of folks and some are standing in the rear while those in the front are sitting. Their ages vary from about 20's to 50's. The gals are sporting typical hairdos of this decade with most being short and curled. Early in the 50's the styles were still usually following the trends from the 1940's which showcased Victory Rolls and cascading curls.

Them men look rather still and formal in their dark pin striped suits with white shirts and bow ties. The ladies look much more relaxed with warm smiles. Their hair is shorter being a bit older and more mature than some of the others here.

Here is a close up of some of the bridesmaids who have a variety of vintage styles. It would be fun to know their story and where they are today.
