I like taking road trips to flea markets, thrift stores, and antique markets. I don’t usually buy much — I mostly just like looking. I keep hoping I’ll find old wedding photographs, but those are hard to come by. But yesterday at a flea market in central Massachusetts I came upon a wonderful collection of old wedding photographs, and I bought them all! They appear to span the early 1900′s through the 1950′s. Here are two from the earlier part of collection. I have no idea who these people are or where these photographs were taken. All I know is that they were taken by “Warchol’s Studio.” Any ideas?

drew - I love the second one. The groom looks so high class with that pose!March 8, 2010 – 4:47 pm
lisa - Yeah Drew I’m thinking that these people must have been upper-middle class. They certainly look more upscale than the people riding tractors in my old family photographs!!

Ashlyn Rose - Lisa,
Hello, from outside Perth, Western Australia. I, too love old wedding photographs, these two look by the number of attendants and the size of the bouquets to be a society weddings. Would have cost a pretty penny in comparison to the average,
back then. Lucky you how many did you get? Thanks for sharing. Cheers Ash.August 28, 2010 – 8:27 am
