The Texana Museum in Edna was host to a bridal showcase on June 11. Seven bridal gowns were featured, dating back to 1951.
Jeanette Stafford, Joyce Jarratt, Maxine Price, and Kaitlen Eckmann were responsible for the showcase. Price says the women found inspiration in a magazine and along with their creative minds, made the décor from household items.
Refreshments were served, arranged like what you would see at a wedding reception. “We wanted it to be as if you are coming to the reception,” says Stafford. Jarratt baked the wedding cake and Stafford made the punch with her “secret family recipe.”
Price says the idea sprung from the “Here Comes the Brides” showcase at the Texana Center for the Arts, hosted at the same time. “We piggybacked on the Art Center’s plan,” says Price, “we like to call it the ‘Here Comes the Brides Tour’.”
