Wedding flashback!

You know what I love?

Flashbacks.

You know what else I love?

Weddings (obvs).

So why not have a little wedding flashback time?!

A while back while my Foxy Mama was at her apartment running around and getting things together for the weekend and her wedding the next day, I decided to go through some old photo albums while I waited. Among those photo albums were two small ones from her and my dad's wedding way back in 1980 (I think). I've seen these before but I always love to see old photos of my parents, especially when they were together; I don't really remember them ever being that way, so it's nice to see. Plus, she just looked so happy and beautiful in the pictures and I just love seeing them! So I took some pictures (of pictures) to share with you all!

Foxy Mama with her bridesmaids.. is it crazy that I kind of love their dresses?




I've decided that I kind of need to try her dress on.


So scandalous! And it's ok - I agree that my dad looks like Napoleon Dynamite.

I swoon over this car. The day after the wedding, with my nana (on the right).

However, I must say, as cute and happy as they look.. I have never seen Foxy Mama as happy as she has been this past year with her new hubs JCC. He is perfect for her, and a perfect way to end this post is to show my gorgeous mom now, on her wedding day 30 years later, looking better than ever.

Aren't they just the cutest?

(Btdubs, I totally wrote this as I was watching Bethenny getting Married?... the episode where she actually gets married. Perfect.)


Have you gone back and browsed through your parents wedding album(s)? Isn't it fun to see what they wore and looked like?!

Those photos are a million kinds of awesome. I love the bridesmaids dresses, your moms dress, your dads hair, and that car in the last pic. LOVE IT!

I love it! You should definitely try on your mom's dress! My mom's dress was way too small for me. I'm now trying to figure out what to do with my own wedding dress... save it forever in case i have a daughter one day who wants it? or get rid of it?!

Your dad so looks like Napoleon Dynamite! Hilarious. And your mom looks beautiful in both weddings. Def. try on the dress. If she was willing you could have it altered slightly if you want it to be more your style. Or keep it exactly the same!

Thanks guys!

@Poor and Fabulous.. I think you should keep at least for a while.. you never know, you're future daughter may want to wear it or even (if you're willing) cut it up and use elements of the dress for something!

@Lindsey.. I think her dress has serious altering potential.. she's definitely cool with it and only keeping it because I asked her too ;)
