Members j swift Posted September 23, 2021 Author Members Share Posted September 23, 2021 (edited) One more that I couldn't resist, because what else would one wear for their wedding to a TV evangelist in the 1980s but this ensemble from Knots Landing?

But Cathy could've ripped off the veil and reused the headband for a Jane Fonda workout. Edited September 23, 2021 by j swift 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted September 23, 2021 Members Share Posted September 23, 2021 That looks more like a bustier than a wedding dress, but it was the 1980s!! Please register in order to view this content 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Marissa Gallant Posted September 23, 2021 Members Share Posted September 23, 2021 But. Twinkle lights. And in fairness to Rachel's funeral dress, which wedding to Mac was that? But I do agree that Cassie's was atrocious. I think Felicia's worst hat is not a wedding hat. I'm a product of my age and kind of secretly love the big meringue wedding dresses. And the psuedo Victorian ones. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted September 23, 2021 Members Share Posted September 23, 2021 Robin Wright had rather unfortunate wedding garb on SB twice - in 1985 to Joe and 1987 to Jeffrey: Please register in order to view this content 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Joseph Posted September 23, 2021 Members Share Posted September 23, 2021 The second looks slightly better but you're right pretty unfortunate 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members j swift Posted October 11, 2021 Author Members Share Posted October 11, 2021 (edited) The Dorian/Herb wedding was from that odd time when women would never wear white to the second wedding, but they would wear poofy sleeves and mismatched nail polish I think the scarf was meant to convey that Dorian was happier at her fifth wedding (after Victor, Herb, Mr Sati, and her first marriage to David, this time she married Mel for the "right reasons"), she certainly looked younger Her sixth go-round to Mitch Laurence was a bit of a hodge-podge (good dress, horrible hair), but it must be hard to find time to shop for a last minute surprise return to town marriage to the local cult leader. I guess you know it's last minute when the huge bouquets totally clash with Dorian's color scheme of blush and bashful. However, one of the historical crimes against good taste has got to go to Luna Moody. Not only was it really out of character for such a "boho bride", but it also was never in style to wear a Snow White collar on a dress of velvet burnout herringbone chiffon on your wedding day / Edited October 11, 2021 by j swift 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted October 11, 2021 Members Share Posted October 11, 2021 Dorian's wedding dress from the Herb nuptials didn't just crack me up due to the hot pink color. Those sleeves!!!

Members Franko Posted October 11, 2021 Members Share Posted October 11, 2021 I always love Dorian's stance in that photo of her and Herb. "Yeah, I said yes to an ugly-ass dress. WANNA MAKE SOMETHING OF IT?!" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members j swift Posted October 14, 2021 Author Members Share Posted October 14, 2021 (edited) Pretty dress and headgear, but perhaps we need another thread for worst wedding photo (ie crazy eyes)? Remember the days when we got amused by how often Erica Kane had been married? Now, it is standard operation procedure for a female character i their 40s to have been married at least three times.

Members j swift Posted November 20, 2021 Author Members Share Posted November 20, 2021 (edited) One Life to Live does it again! Someone recently posted one of the zillion of episodes related to Samantha Vernon and Asa Buchanan's wedding and all I could look at was this thing on her head Please register in order to view this content Another view, and can someone confirm who is standing next to Dorian? (and why is she in the reception line at the wedding?) Meanwhile Edwina is wearing Chanel (The Banner must have paid their reporters well) Finally, Dorian makes an inexplicable costume change between the ceremony and the reception Edited November 20, 2021 by j swift 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted November 20, 2021 Members Share Posted November 20, 2021 (edited) I can't understand why Dorian and Herb were in the reception line either. Was it Herb's position in the town at the time? I think he was either DA or Mayor or something. That is Anthony George as Dr. Will Vernon, Sam's father, next to her. I know George best from Dark Shadows. I can never get over Wanda Webb and Asa being cousins as an ongoing character beat for a decade In this era. They very regularly refer to each other as 'cousin'.

Members j swift Posted November 20, 2021 Author Members Share Posted November 20, 2021 Herb says a line at the ceremony that they can't keep their guests waiting, which I guess means that the reception was at Llanfair? I may be all mixed up, but does this mean that they kept Olympia in one mansion, then Asa lived in another, and they had the reception at third mansion? At least when AMC;s Cliff and Nina got married in 1908 (and Palmer's "dead" wife Daisy attended) it made more sense that it was at Palmer's home (with an outdoor area that we never saw again). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
