I love weddings, and June is the most popular month to get married. One of the perks of being an archivist is looking at local newspapers like The Romeo Observer which talked about these ceremonies in great detail no matter who it was.
The June 25, 1953 issue of The Romeo Observer covered three weddings. One of them was of Harry G. Clark of Romeo and Delphine Laurine Miller of Rochester - the happy couple seen in this week's photo.
Harry and Delphine exchanged wedding vows at the First Methodist Church (today it's known as the Romeo United Methodist Church) in a double ring ceremony on Saturday, June 13, 1953. Like many articles of the time, it goes into specifics of who was in the wedding party as well as what the bride wore. In this case, Delphine wore "a lovely waltz length lace dress and a lace bolero jacket" along with "a scalloped fingertip veil [that] fell from a small cap trimmed with lillies of the valley...[and] lace mitts of the same material as the [gown]."
They are right. That dress is lovely. Delphine also carried an "old fashioned nosegay of white roses."
The article also covers what the matron of honor and the mothers of the bride and groom wore with plenty of detail.
I performed a quick Ancestry search through the library to see how this couple faired out. They were two months shy of their golden anniversary when Harry passed away in 2003.
