I am amazed at the number of comments I have received - the most on any posting so far. <br /><br />To Kathy, Queen Bee and Kristin - you are right it was not a mass wedding in 1942, but the parents of my third cousin, Bonnie in New Jersey who supplied the photo with the names of the attendants. I did wonder if the bridesmaids wearing short veils was an American custom. <br /><br />To Wendy, Barbara & Nancy - I agree the fulsome dress descriptions add so much colour. My summary was taken from press cuttings still in the hands of my mother's cousins and I felt there was wasn't space to include the descriptions of the bridesmaids dresses and the going away dress which make equally fascinating reading.
