What a sweet wedding photo. It looks very similar to my parents' wedding photo which was in 1946. My mom wore a peach wool suit in a similar style to the one in your photo. There was a shortage of fabrics during the war, so elaborate bridal gowns were not always worn. My parents were married in the First Methodist Church of Redondo Beach, California. Oh, and I love how some of the relatives have big smiles and some look fairly serious. :)
