Bride and Groom, Children's Mock Wedding, Perry County, Pa., 1920s

Bride and Groom, Children's Mock Wedding, Perry County, Pa., 1920s
I sense that the bride and groom may have had some second thoughts as they posed for this photo. See also the full version of this photo. From the Dente Studio, Newport, Pa.

I like the girl with her hands on her forehead (standing next to the crossed-legs boy), too, and the boy sitting on the right looks like he's ready to play his role.

Thanks, Babs, I didn't realize that that's what this is! It looks like Beverly has a lovely example of this on Flickr (see 34 Children in A Tom Thumb Wedding). Very interesting--I'll have to see if I can find additional info!
