Grace Kelly marries Prince Ranier of Monaco
April 18, 1956
Jacqueline Bouvier marries John Fitzgerald Kennedy
September 12, 1953
I made the mistake of watching a few of those wedding shows on television today. I was left with a few questions. The main of which was; what happened to a little bit of class ladies? Stop acting so rude, as if no one ever taught you manners. I like to think you're all better than that, and you're setting an awful precedence that women who don't have television cameras following them around will think thats how brides should be acting. I'm afraid this is a trend of being less than yourself and spoiled. I hope it doesn't continue. I beg and plead with all the gods that exist!
It also left me wondering how my wedding dress would look. I am not one for far too much fuss, but I do think these look gorgeous. My mother's mother eloped back in the 60's with my grandfather, so there is no picture of her in a wedding dress. But my other grandmother toiled over her wedding. And the last photo of Jackie reminds me a great deal of my grandmother's dress, except it was long-sleeved, much like Grace Kelly's. Also, she wore a crown. I might not make that decision, but I can't help but smile every time she talks about it.
