This cheeky couple couldn’t have more personality. And seriously, her dress is just as in fashion now as it was then. It’s so Grace Kelly and a certain recent famous wedding. Good fashion never dies.
And that door is ultra-opulent with its centered doorknob and molding. Here is what Isadora said about her submission:
This photo is of my maternal grandparents, Gladys and Sabin. She was Puerto Rican and he was Italian. I know that they were married in Manhattan sometime in the 1950s, but I don’t remember the exact date. This photo shows off my grandpa’s spirit so perfectly. Not only was he a world-class goofball, he had quite a lot of lovers before he met my abuelita. But once they met, he only had eyes for her.The interesting thing about this photo is that Gladys had three younger sisters who also loved it. So they each used this pose at their own weddings. But in those photos, that’s what it looks like — a forced pose. So I guess the moral of the story is don’t try to copy someone else’s moment. Invent your own!
