This is a follow-up to my Wedding Wednesday post of October 30, 2019, when I wrote about my maternal grandparnets' wedding of October 29, 1939. This Friday is the 82nd anniversary of their wedding day.
I mentioned in the earlier post that I had additional photos of the wedding but hadn't been able to find them. Well, some success!
This is the photo I've shared before, of Abe Meckler and Lily Gordon:
This is of my beautiful grandmother by herself.
And the other photo I found seems to have been taken on a different day. It is not the same photographer, and my grandmother's hair and make-up are different, but stylistically it's similar. Maybe it was an engagement photo? I know those used to be popular.
There is at least one more photo out there related to the wedding. The other one I remember is of my grandmother and her sister-in-law, because it was a double wedding (even if they fudged it a little), both in their wedding dresses. It should be here somewhere!
And maybe one day I will learn why the wedding was in the Bronx, even though everyone lived in Brooklyn.
