Best/Worst Soap Wedding Dresses, Hats, Headpieces and Veils

[Paul Raven]

Days Mike and Margo - matching headpieces! What was that about?

I adored Emily's wedding dress. I could've done without the tiara, but that's a minor detail. Liz's maid of honour dress was lovely too.

I know. As I said in the other post? UGLY. I know it was the avant-garde '80s, but come on, now!

I know it was the 70's, but it seemed like the lacy prairie/granny looks in wedding dresses were all the rage. Here is Y&R's Chris Brooks and Snapper Foster getting married in 1974.

 

5 years later Nikki wore the same dress loaned to her by Chris when Nikki wed Greg Foster in 1979. Greg looks like he may wearing the same suit as Snapper wore in 74 as well. 

 

 

Steve and Alice from AW in 1974. Alice also has the prairie/granny thing going on.

 

 

Don and Marlena from Days 1977.

 

Doug and Julie Days 1976.

Phoebe's outfit from when she married Langley on AMC is one of my favorites. I love those muted 70s colors as well as the hat.

Three looks from Trisha, of Loving. I like the first one best. Did something happen to Jeff's suit?

Was it a Greek wedding?  I remember Steve & Betsy's Greek orthodox wedding, the priest placed crowns that looked more like laurels on their heads but he didn't leave them there.

No Greek connection with mike or Margo...I think it may have been some 70's New Age thing...Margo was a hippie chick.

Hey, I actually liked the outfits worn at Eden and Cruz's Antebellum-style wedding on SB. Maybe the on-location, outdoor setting worked better than an indoor one. I do agree that both of Robin Wright's wedding gowns as Kelly were hideous.

 

For a favorite, I always loved DAYS' Carrie Brady's dress to her first marriage to Austin in 1997 (she wore the same dress to their interrupted nuptials in 1995). I find it timeless and ethereal.

I really didn't care much for Bianca's gown when she married Reese.
Reese's was alright, if a tad common.

Julia Duffy as Penny Davis wore a beautiful wedding dress on The Doctors in 1977:

Check out the hideous get-up worn by Dr. Ann Larimer (Geraldine Court) for her nuptials to Dr. Steve Aldrich (David O'Brien) in 1977 on The Doctors:

It was always amusing to me the lengths that soaps would go through to have non-white second wedding gowns

 

I recall when Blaine (AW) and Marlena (DAYS) wore light blue

and I recall Alice wore yellow to her second wedding to Steve(n)

Cecile looked great when she almost married Peter Love on Another World.  The wedding took place on Carl Hutchins' yacht with a Great Gatsby/Roaring 20s theme.   Cecile almost married Peter, but he collapsed before he could say "I Do."  Peter's seasick pills were replaced by pills that could induce a heart attack.
