1945 Wedding Reception or Garden Party

I found these slides, of the same couple as the last, in a box labeled “August 9 – 45”, so presumably from 1945 or around World War II judging by the hair styles and military uniform on one of the men … it looks like they attended a wedding and snapped some family photos, or maybe the wedding picture is just accidentally mixed in. You can see the hat and dress styles of the time, and it looks like the grandmothers or older aunts got a picture taken in the kitchen, making a cake with Domino sugar. In I wish I knew more about this couple and family.
- Notice that they’re holding their gloves?
- Domino sugar was used – looks like these old women are baking a cake!
