I have no information at all about the image, but I think it shows an interesting group of people and I'd love to know more about them. The language looks like German to me and the wedding's obviously somewhere rural. I'm particularly taken by the bride's dainty lace mittens and the bridegroom's flowers.
Lots more to see over at Sepia Saturday!

Oh what a pitiful wedding. Don't they look so poor? But the bride looks happy even tho she didn't get a beautiful wedding gown to wear. Their attendants didn't dress up either. Let's hope they prospered and had a long happy life. But I have my doubts.

That is a great picture!

That's a rather girly boutonniere. Please post an update if you find out any info on the language or people.
It would be great if the language could be translated. Would like to know what it says.
I can't work out the language either but I'm not convinced it's German. Fine photo for the theme.
Maybe it is in Sütterlin writing.
Togetherness is everything, right! lovely photo...and it's so cool how our theme this week can stretch in so many directions!
I loved all the flowers. I thought the flowers made it look happy, not pitiful.
A super character study for a wedding photo. Notice the thatch roof of the house behind. I think it is from the old Austro-Hungarian Empire. It included so many different ethnic groups and languages besides German.
