This is a wedding photograph from the antique shop in Detroit Lakes Minnesota. This photo was in a larger frame at some time…someone cut it to fit a different size frame.

Nels O Lennes of Minneapolis was the photographer.  He was in business from 1900 to 1903.

The groom wears a suit with a waistcoat, a white bow tie and a corsage.  The brides gown is pigeon breasted, she carries a bouquet in her hand covered in fingerless gloves.  She has a corsage and her bridal bonnet is adorned with flowers and tendrils.  They are standing on some kind of animal skin.

Rarely do we see a couple sitting down in a wedding photograph.  Perhaps she was feeling faint as you can see her leaning towards and on him.

This is most certainly a photo from around 1900.  The brides gown is pigeon breasted. Her gown is white or perhaps ivory and it is trimmed with lace. She carries a bouquet of flowers.  She also wears a corsage and a wedding bonnet adorned with flowers and tendrils.

The groom wears a suit and waistcoat/vest with a pocket watch, a corsage and a white bowtie.

This is a Cabinet Card from the antique shop in Detroit Lakes Minnesota.

 

The photographer is O. E. Flaten of Cor. 4th and Front Moorhead Minn.  He was at that address in 1900.

I wonder about the double pocket flap on the grooms suit coat?  He wears a white bowtie and a corsage.  The bride wears a white gown, the hem is partially pleated and trimmed in rosebuds, the bodice is trimmed with a large bow and ribbons along with flowers and greenery.  She also carries a bouquet and her bridal bonnet has flowers with trailing tendrils.

This is a Cabinet Card from the antique shop in Detroit Lakes Minnesota.

The photographer was A. Risem of 522 Tower Ave W. Superior, Wis.

The groom is relaxed his wicker chair while resting his shoes on some kind of animal skin.  He wears a suit with a white bowtie and a corsage.  The bride clutches half a dozen long stemmed flowers perhaps roses tied up with a white bow. The brides dark gown looks to have a very fancy embroidered trim, the bodice of her gown has folds and smocking ending in a high neck.  She wears a long bridal bonnet that is trimmed with flowers.

 

This photograph was most likely taken around 1900.

This is a Cabinet Card from the antique shop in Detroit Lakes Minnesota.

The Photographer was Ole Flaten of Moorhead Minnesota.  He was at 4th and Front in 1900.

I would have guessed by the brides gown that this photo was taken a little earlier around 1895, simply from the size of her sleeves.  The bride wears a gown trimmed with lace at the neckline and sleeves, the bodice sports a bow. Her bridal bonnet is floor length and the headpiece seems to have flowers that have escaped in tendrils.  The groom wears a cutaway jacket, a white bow tie and a corsage.  You can also see the posing stand behind his left foot.

They are holding hands!  The Groom has the top button fastened on his cutaway morning coat.  He wears a small corsage.  The Bride is wearing a gown with huge sleeves and many bows on the bodice and a bow on each sleeve.  She also wears a Bridal Bonnet trimmed with flowers and a small corsage.  Her dress is not black or white but some other color.

The Photo Studio was New York Portrait Co.  Do you suppose they just got off a ship?  I will guess that this photo was taken in about 1895.

This is a Cabinet Card from the Buggy Wheel Antique Shop near Lake Park Minnesota. 

The Photographer is Hamlin of Casselton N. Dak.

This photograph had to be taken after 1889 when “The Dakotas” became North and South Dakota.  Hamlin was a photographer in the 1880’s and 1890’s.

The groom has flowers on the front of his suit.  The bride’s gown is black with white trim.  The sleeves are quite large at the shoulder, and she wears a bridal bonnet, and she rests her hand on his arm. The bride has sprigs of flowers on her bridal bonnet and at her neckline and at the front of her dress.

They look really young.
