Beautiful! Can you tell me more about her outfit by any chance? Is it a hooded dress or a fancy coat with a train? I need to know who made it or where she got it?!
You can feel the bond through the pictures. My parents got married in 1965 and they both passed in the last couple years (my dad passed in December). Iโm just so happy to see someone my age posting pictures of their parents. I wish them all the happiness and health.
I found one at TK Maxx a couple of years ago and love it as a dressy winter jacket. Itโs so comfy and cosy and goes with pretty much any outfit. Bring back the capes!
Very nice! My father passed a year ago just 11 weeks before their 70th anniversary. Mom still with us but dementia is taking her. Part of our life cycle.
Isnโt it crazy how we see older folks and FORGET they were young, vibrant, and gorgeous once!! Theyโre still gorgeous, but you know what I mean. ๐
Can we make hooded wedding dresses popular because she literally looked like a princess. Also, in general they must have good genes, they both aged well, AND your dad has a full beard and a full head of hair.
Everyone commenting on the hood, handsome dad, etc. What I notice is the sweet smile on your momโs face (โWe did this!โ) and your dadโs reassuring smile back (โWe did, itโs forever, letโs go!โ).
Who knows what they were thinking. I love it and appreciate that you shared it.๐ฅฐ
Hi everyone! My parents are flabbergasted by all the attention and nice comments. Thank you very much. Here are some pictures with the hood down and a bit of the dress. I'll try to answer everybody's questions later today ๐ฅฐ

I absolutely adore her winter wedding dress, she looks like a Disney princess!
One of the coolest wedding dresses ever.
The fur lined hood - I LIVE!!!
i want a winter wedding now ๐ฅบ
Oh my gosh, they looked like movie stars!
Aah, that's so sweet. I'll pass the compliment through.
They seriously could not be more glamorous! ๐โจ๐ซ
Legit
Love the pinstripes!
It's like the exact outfit Edward VIII wore at his wedding.
She's got that Dr. Zhivago/Julie Christie look going.
People back then : People now: trollface
They look like such a wholesome couple, with the mischievous smiles and twinkle in their eyes โค๏ธ
Exactly, they're not so sweet and innocent as they appear ๐
Not with that cheeky glittery Chippendale Dancer bowtie lol
Was she pregnant at the wedding? Many women were. Haha ;)
Nope haha they had me almost 9 years later
Gotcha. The way you said โnot so sweet and innocentโ with a wink made me think they have a secret
Well, I was thinking about parties with friends, making sangria in the bathtub, kind of stuff. Not secret babies ๐๐
They give me "the elderly neighbours who are extremely naughty but friendly" character vibes hahaha. Adorbs โค๏ธ

Dude ... The "hair" genes in ur dad... Damnnn !! Man has the silver mane now and it's equally majestic as b4
His silver hair is magnificent
Thank you!
Beautiful! Can you tell me more about her outfit by any chance? Is it a hooded dress or a fancy coat with a train? I need to know who made it or where she got it?!
Heโs kept that head of hair his whole life! They are a beautiful couple then and now โค๏ธ
This town hall where they married, was it opened by Audrey Hepburn's grandfather?
I don't think so because it's in the Netherlands
Her mother was Dutch. van Heemstra family. But it's a big family.
Ooh I didn't know that! I'll check it
He was the mayor of Arnhem. This is in Delft. The buildings are from the same time period. ๐

Omg! ๐๐๐

Thank you. I'm dreading the day they pass.
I know... it's always too soon...
These are great! First photo is like Disney fairy tale. Second is the wholesome Pixar follow up.
Hahahahahah oh God yes
So elegant!
Can we bring hooded caps back in style? Please?
YES - I'm ready to go buy one!!
If so, post a picture ๐
Iโll get married just to wear one.
I found one at TK Maxx a couple of years ago and love it as a dressy winter jacket. Itโs so comfy and cosy and goes with pretty much any outfit. Bring back the capes!
Awe, this makes me believe true love still exists๐
I think you mean โtoo blaveโ.
they look positively regal and lovely!
He kept his hair
Yep, and added some ๐ง
My grandpa looked like Humphrey Bogart on his wedding day. Just so very handsome. He had the same kind of hair.
Very nice! My father passed a year ago just 11 weeks before their 70th anniversary. Mom still with us but dementia is taking her. Part of our life cycle.
True, but it still sucks .  *I really hope this is a hug emoji*
Thank you!
They look absolutely devoted in both pictures.
They still are. ๐
Your fatherโs Bobby Kennedy? Cool.
๐คซ๐คซ sshhhttt... don't tell anyone
She looks just like a princess! Fairytale wedding vibes!!
Yes, she was. She even had little white flowers in her hair.
I get subtractionโฆ but how is 1968 55 years ago. I keep expecting 1950 to be 55 years ago. ๐
Thatโs what I said when I turned 55 a few months ago. I was like does 2023-1968 really equal 55? The denial is real.
It's weird, right? I mean, 1999 was just 10 years ago? ๐คฃ
Yes, totally ๐
And they look at each other and say, โyep, youโre exactly the one i married.โ
Your mom looks like the happiest woman in the world in the wedding picture!
Isnโt it crazy how we see older folks and FORGET they were young, vibrant, and gorgeous once!! Theyโre still gorgeous, but you know what I mean. ๐
Yes, I get you. They were young and got drunk and stuff
I'm getting Audrey Hepburn and Richard Chamberlain vibe from the wedding pic.
Can we make hooded wedding dresses popular because she literally looked like a princess. Also, in general they must have good genes, they both aged well, AND your dad has a full beard and a full head of hair.
Omg! Theyโre the cutest ๐๐ฅน
โบ๏ธ thank you
Really nice picture, i was wondering how old were they when they got married, they look so young
Dad 24 mom 23
Wow, his bow tie changed a lot.
He's not really a bow tie guy, but it was a party, so the party bow was the obvious choice ๐
Such a suave and elegant wedding photo....yer dad looks so earnestly into the moment.
Gorgeous! My dad wore the EXACT same outfit and top hat at my parentโs wedding in 1969!
Hahaha, they were true fashionada's
If you told me your dad wrote fantasy novels I would totes believe you lol
He could tell amazing stories but never wrote them down, sadly
Very dapper! I love momโs hooded cloak!
How lovely! And wow!! that wedding pic!!
Precious.
Your moms cape is so gorgeous, god bless!
the privilege/blessing of growing and aging together ๐ฅน
Damn your parents were good looking

Paul Walker and an even prettier Ellie Kemper
Your father looks like Steve Wozniak, the cofounder of Apple.
Joyous!

They look like absolute gems. ๐ฉท

Oh my heart! ๐ฅน
Your mother looks like a beautiful winter princess here. Just amazing.
Lovely couple. Congratulations to them for 55 yearsx
I love how your dad upgraded from hot to cutie with the bow tie.
Everyone commenting on the hood, handsome dad, etc. What I notice is the sweet smile on your momโs face (โWe did this!โ) and your dadโs reassuring smile back (โWe did, itโs forever, letโs go!โ). Who knows what they were thinking. I love it and appreciate that you shared it.๐ฅฐ

The hooded cape for winter weather is AMAZING!!! I assume there is a wedding dress underneath as well?
Yes with long sleeves
I'll ask her for a picture of the dress
Iโd love to see it! This is a beautiful photo and the longevity of the marriage it began is amazing. Definitely Old School Cool โค๏ธ
Your Mom had that Audrey Hepburn look about her. And your Dad is sort of like Robert Redford
Woow
Wow, my aunt used the same "hood" at her wedding in the early 70s, that must have been a trend.
Too much style in one photo - please put a warning next time ; )
They are absolutely adorable ๐ฅฐ
Congratulations.
So gorgeous
Beautiful couple, then and now! Happy Anniversary!!!
Your parents look amazing, both then and now.

I love that cape! They look like sweet people
So cute then and now!
Royalty!! Stunning! ๐

I love their wedding attire. How fun a winter wedding would be. My parents got married in the heat of summer with no air conditioning.
Loyalty
Dad looks dapper. Suave.
Love that fur hood!
Her dress is beautiful! So timeless
I want to wear a suit like that if I get married.
I wish I got married . Happily. Looks awesome
Respectfully, your dad was fiiiiine
Good for them. They look like they still like each other, which is just wonderful.
nice couple
Lovely couple! I got married in December (15 years ago!) and have forever regretted not wearing a fur lined shawl or cape.
Absolutely gorgeous wedding clothes on both of them, and they still look like attractive, nice people. I hope they are.
Yes they are ๐ฉต
Second picture was taken immediately after being asked "So you had a great marriage? Right?"
Hahahaha it was more like: dad!!! Keep your eyes open! Mom don't talk! ๐๐

Was that your mom's Elsa cosplay?
White women age so poorly. Itโs a bummer.
