I am always happy when I find an old picture like this. I love the clothes, and I love it when I know something about the people and what they were like.
The bride in this photo was the sweetest, most adorable lady you could ever know. She only passed away about a year ago, and the moment I saw this photo I knew it was her. It's interesting to me that I only knew her when she was much, much older, yet recognized her "young" photo instantly.
Trivia: see the man at the right ?(Larry, the best man...) In 1990, Mr. Carly and I went to Buffalo to see him and his wife, their son, & their grandaughter, who is my age. We had a car accident on the way to a BBQ that was being hosted by the son. In the confusion at the ER, medical staff somehow thought that I was Larry's wife(he was 60+ at the time), and Mr. Carly was married to Larry's granddaughter. Not exactly right. It didn't help that we all had exactly the same last name. I was just happy that EVERYONE's x-rays came out fine.

You sound like you would love genealogy!
where was that photo taken? It looks like the same background as my grandmother and grandfather's wedding pic.
dude, I dig seeing pics where I don't know the people - look at the groom isolated from the others - he looks so depressed and lost - I mean, maybe he's just hungry, maybe he's in love with a man, who can say - but he jumps out of the photo with that inappropriate thousand yard stare.
