My wedding in Comanche, 1957

The wedding was at St. Matthew's Episcopal Church in Comanche on August 24, 1957.  Bridesmaids were Frances Evelyn Atwood, Quay Williams (maid of honoe) and Kay Vanderpool.

I made my own wedding dress.  It was designed after a Givenchy dress from the Audrey Hepburn-Fred Astaire movie called "Funny Face" which was popular that year.

I also made Mother's hat and at the last minute, the wedding cake.  The Brownwood,Texas baker broke his leg a week before the wedding! So I made the cake and somebody in Comanche decorated it for me.
