Many thanks for that Kate, much appreciated. I am trying to work out who the wedding is , I have been told who the central figure is (in my tree) so I just have to work out everyone else. |

2nd picture - about 1910? I think it is the first decade of the 20th century, although the waistline on dresses had gone up a little higher than the natural waist by around 1910. (If you can find a picture of Audrey Hepburn in the Ascot dress from My Fair Lady, that was around 1910 and has a similar waistline.) |

Looking at the headwear on the bride (?) - the way they are sort of curved around the head with the band type of thing round the forehead, I would be tempted to say the 1920s. (It would depend on how wealthy they were and how far they could afford to be up to date with the latest fashions, too, but it certainly looks later than the 1910s to me. |
