Wordless Wednesday: June is Wedding Month at Heritage Zen

My grandparents, Adolf Szerejko and Antonina Bulak. Married 11 Feb 1920 at Our Lady of Czestochowa, also known as St. Mary's, in Worcester, Massachusetts. My grandmother and her mother Ewa (Kowalewska) Bulak, both seamstresses, made the dress. The flowers are freesias, one of my grandmother's favorite flowers.

They look so elegant. And your grandmother had wonderful taste in flowers - freesias have such a beautiful fragrance.

Yes, they do have a wonderful fragrance. That's one of the things my grandmother loved about them. Whenever I smell freesias I think of her. Happy memories...
