Ready for some romance of yesteryear? Perhaps you have a bride- to-be in your family or children and/or grandchildren who would love to see what brides of long ago wore for their wedding. Come to the Wayland Museum (12 Cochituate Rd) to see and learn about the history of wedding gowns from the 1850’s to the early 1930’s. As you travel through the rooms of the museum, you will hear about the many different styles of these dresses, the fabrics used and who wore them.  The dresses have been preserved and lovingly cared for in our costume collection by Gloria Backman, our textile specialist. What better time in preparation for Valentine’s  Day to view these precious gowns along with our vintage collection of valentines. Top off your visit with punch and a piece of wedding cake!  Sunday, February 7 at 2pm.
