When was the last time you saw your mother’s wedding dress, your grandmother’s wedding dress or even your great grandmother’s wedding dress. I would say a very long time ago or possibly never.

The Bethel Historical Society is looking to bring these dresses out of hiding to display them during our Vintage Wedding Dress program, partnering with Occasions Bridal & Evening Wear Boutique. We need your help in locating such dresses from each decade. Gail and staff at Occasions will steam each dress to get them show ready.

We are hoping to capture a cross-section of time as shown by the sampling of photos here.
