Welcome to the melting pot. The world just keeps getting better, and something that would have been UNTHINKABLE (and illegal not that long ago), is now so mundane as to generate "No one cares" from you.
Congratulations to the happy couple! And GOD BLESS AMERICA!

(9,999 posts)she was starving herself during his Presidential campaign. Wasn't she a former model or am I confusing her with someone else? The Bride is beautiful and I love that wedding dress.

(30,253 posts)She used to take a lot of medication, maybe it made her gain weight. I think that she was pretty thin all her life.

(89,281 posts)it gets tougher as one gets older anyways. she always came across to me as one of those women who put so much into staying thin. and this crosses many things like age, race, politics ,class etc.
and she did have that stroke so maybe she now focuses on health more than just physical appearance.
It's a high society thing. You rarely see anyone plump in Palm Beach or on 5th Ave. in NY. You know what Wallis Simpson used to say: A woman can never be too rich or too thin.

(9,275 posts)Being too thin is unattractive at a certain age IMO, makes a woman look older than she is.

I feel bad for her, the same damned thing happened to me--scrawny all my life and then BAM!

(30,253 posts)I wish them the best. Both of the bride's gowns are lovely.

(26,582 posts)I don't think it's two different ones. It really looks like the little cap sleeves come off and well as a dress bottom that comes off. I notice that the top is the same otherwise in both photos.
Beacool
(30,253 posts)I looked again and the draping of the bodice seems different. The second pic is small, so I may be wrong.
I just found a larger version of the same pic.

(1,417 posts)I was going to give them the benefit of the doubt until someone posted a thread of right wingers attacking Boehner's daughter for marrying a black man. Typical.
Anyone who verges on being a reasonable human being in any respect is suspect to them.

(89,281 posts)he has a nice family. i think he would be much more happy if he retired and just spend more time with them without worrying about pleasing his party that would never accept him. and making a fool of himself with things like benghazi and syria.
