The year 1935 was the year that The Bride of Frankenstein hit cinemas. That April, people started to fear what could happen when you push a woman into a marriage she doesn’t want.
Was one of the stepping stones to feminism?
BYOB
Imagine going to a wedding with no open bar. That's what most of life was like during the prohibition. That changed on December 5, 1933.
This meant that alcohol was back and people could make a toast to the newlyweds with a legal glass of wine in hand.
The Year of The Magazine
As we can tell, as the years went by, weddings became more and more lavish. By the year 1934 the magazine So You're Going to Be Married hit the shelves.
It was later named to just simply "BRIDES." The publication opened the way for a whole new approach to weddings.
Score: Love
The famous tennis player Eileen Bennet wed her horse racing hubby Marcys Mash in the year, September 28, 1936.
She switched out her tennis headband for a beautiful headpiece and long veil when she walked down the aisle.
A Major Sacrifice
In 1937 King Edward abdicated the throne to marry Wallis Simpson, an American who had been divorced twice. This decision resulted in the shortest reign in British history.
We sincerely hope that it was the right decision because that's a pretty big sacrifice.
