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.

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.

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

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.

    • I've always liked Kim Zimmer. She's a very good actress. I think the majority of the resentment comes from how much air she, or rather, Reva, sucked out of the show. There were periods where it felt like it was All Reva, All The Time. So many male characters had to be madly on love with her, even when they had zero chemistry with her. Her rival characters, like Sonni and Annie, were practically turned into psychos (somehow Olivia escaped that fate). She was given bizarre storylines, like the clone and time travel stories, to keep her front burner. It wasn't enough to have ONE bizarre reason she was missing (living with the Amish) she had to have TWO (princess of a Caribbean island, with a secret kid--her second one--to boot). She got an insane amount of attention from TPTB, to the detriment of other characters. Possibly because the actress weaponized her fans. Maybe that's an unfair assessment, but seems to me her day had come and gone and yet she was still centered so much on the show. I agree. In the beginning she was a very good character with a beautifully composed backstory. If they had kept her grounded like that, I am certain few would have complained about her.
    • Very true...and that was the heart of what the character was and excelled at..everyone goes on about the Slut of Springfield scene, but damn, did the writing and acting come together when Reva confronted Pharoh about her early molestation by him.  THAT is the stuff that worked...not being the Queen of a dumb island.
    • Frank Valentini should thank his proverbial lucky stars that JE came out of retirement.
    • I liked Reva, too, but as I've said before, no one at that show besides Pamela K. Long knew how to write for her or for KZ.  You don't plunge a character who is OTT by design into circumstances that are equally (or more) OTT.  The trick with a character like Reva Shayne Lewis is to keep the storylines as down-to-earth as possible and allow her emotions to be bigger.  I've always said that both Reva and KZ were at their finest when they were dealing with relatively mundane things like Josh's paralysis, her marriage to H.B. and her pregnancy and subsequent miscarriage.
    • I agree!  AE was just one of those performers who could draw you in, no matter what.  I don't believe I ever saw her phone in any performance on any show.  To me, she always gave 100%.  God, how I miss seeing her on TV every day.
    • Did OLTL have books in 80's like the other soaps that covered the early storylines of the show?
    • I liked (not loved) the character of Reva. I just didn't like how she ate the show. 
    • I’ve spent a lot of time at the bedside of dying family members. These hospital scenes feel very real. The entire Days team is doing incredible work.
