SHADES OF YESTERDAY

Here I am modeling a replica of Lady Diana's wedding gown for a newspaper article on the Royal Wedding mania, and then local advertisements for the gown.  This was back in my college years... back in the days when I worked for Rosenburgs.  This was also the time I met Rich and was running track every  day - can you tell??? (laugh)  He absolutely loved this photograph...kinda funny since he never wanted to get married...

The price tag for just the gown was $5,000.00 back then, would probably be about the same as $17,000.00 in todays market.  The woman who wore the real gown and became a princess is now dead, her husband remarried and boys all grown.  I found this photo in a book, and it took me back to a different time.  It is hard to believe that I was once a wedding consultant for 10 years.  Brides are worse than a crying newborn...well WE ARE.

The years go by fast, don't they?
