This wedding photo was taken in New York State on July 11, 1946. The picture shows
John and Esther Anderson together with their bridal party and that is all the
information I have on the people in the wedding photo.
This wedding photo highlights the use of soft tulle fabrics
for the headdresses and the same tulle has been used to make fabric
decoration on the beautiful stephanotis spray of flowers. I like the
heart shaped headdress of the bride.
