Good afternoon.This is a photo of my cousins wedding that they send to me. Let me identify them to you.The older woman on the right is Luisa,follow my her son Luigi,his wife Julia,and Antonio.We did not attend the wedding as we did not know about it.This was the start of our relationship. We visit them a couple of times.To my Italian friends here.Here is where they lived Melizzano ,Benevento Italia If you are not familiar with this town.It is about half hour from Naples. I just want you to noticed the wonderful gown and hat that Julia worn at the wedding.How smart is this.I do not know the year.But less than twenty years ago. Noticed that Luisa is in black out fit.My mother always worn black for years. She is my mother niece.Do you loved the photo and the outfit? The photo is mine.

Search up any old pictures especially in the 17th century. You'll see most people did not smile. Smiling in photos was considered low class.

I like the photo but they should have smiled and the wedding dress is beautiful. Wearing black used to be a sign of widowhood.

@amadeo Probably. Those wedding photographers can be so annoying!

The style of the dress and hat would probably date that wedding photograph to the mid to late 1970's.

I know where is Benevento Alfredo. Many women in the southern Italy always wore black dresses, I think even in our days. This dress is beautiful.
