What caused this to begin? When this bride paid a hefty price of $100 for her wedding dress in 1950, the older sister Adele set the trend. Nowadays, the majority of wedding dresses cost $1,000 or more.

Later, in 1953, she gave it to her sister Elly. The clothing was given to their younger sister Sharon in 1969, sixteen years later.

When Adele’s daughter wore the outfit in 1982, it eventually turned into a custom that was passed down to the next generation.

The same was done by Elly’s daughters; Carole wore it in 1990, and Jean wore it in 1991 when she became the next family bride.

When Julie, Sharon’s daughter, wore the dress on her special day in 2013, it was taken out of the box once more after 22 years.

It was evident that Julie wanted to wear that particular dress, she recalled. In 2022, Serena, Sharon’s daughter, became the eighth bride to don the dress, seventy-two years after the custom began!

Serena had almost everything a bride would require. A ‘something old, something borrowed, and something blue’ was made out of the clothing.

They are all pleased to inform that each bride has enjoyed a long and happy marriage as a result of the attire. They anticipate that it will continue in the future.

Who will come after? Although they are unsure as well, they eagerly await the day when the dress will be passed on to the next bride in the family. What a lovely approach to honor previous generations and to bless future ones.
