This is my great aunt's wedding dress. She actually gave it to me!! She had bought it when my great aunt and uncle were planning on getting married, but then, since he was going off to war (idk which one it was...) they just had a quick marriage without a ceremony. They always planned on having a traditional wedding one day, but it never happened!When we were down in Florida, she got out a bunch of vintage things of hers. My sister Adela could fit into them, but they were really big for me. She let me try the wedding dress on, and Maria took me outside and had a quick photo shoot. When I got back inside, she said I could keep it!! She is soo sweet!
(Also in the top pic you might notice a ring on my left ring finger. It was a ring Maria was wearing that she put on me to make me look "brideish")
