About MeThis wedding headdress were worn at a wedding at Rutherford Parish Church, Aberdeen in June 1960. The reception was held at the Amatola Hotel on Great Western Road. It was the bride's second wedding, which may have influenced her choice of colour and style.
The half coronet headdress is held in place by 3 intertwined wire circles at the back. The pleated lace has been stiffened with buckram lined with cream satin.
