35 Found Photos of a Wedding in Southampton in the 1960s

   

The early ’60s wedding gown retained the swing dress volume of the ’50s, but the seams began to streamline and the hems began to rise.

 
Dior’s New Look silhouette was still popular in the early 1960s, but elements of a new decade were emerging. Brides paired their princess wedding dresses with bouffants and veiled pillbox hats.
 
The long dress trend was equally popular as hemlines grew shorter and shorter on “modern wedding dresses.” Trains diminished in size, vanishing to nothing as the minidress hit the scene.
 
These wonderful vintage photos were found by vintage ladies that show a wedding in Southampton area in the 1960s.
