Two young hippies got hitched.
He cut off his ponytail for my mom
I picked out the blue suit. Didnt want to look back and think Oh that suit.
Now? Oh that suit!
By this picture time we were drunk on champagne and high as kites from smoking in the woods.
Today we are going canoeing.
Thanks for listening.

The 1970's; the decade that fashion forgot...

I plan on pairing it with a black tuxedo shirt and black bow tie. It will kill at the ballet or opera...

(8,747 posts)The picture reminds me of the country song, "For She Was Mama."
There was one of her, flippin' the bird
Sittin' on a Harley
And a few with some hairy hippie dude
Turns out his name was Charlie
Her hair, her clothes, her drinkin' smokin'
Had us boys confused
I'll never forget the day us nosey kids got introduced
To Mama, 'fore she was Mama
In a string bikini, in Tijuana
Won't admit she smoked marijuana
But I saw Mama, 'fore she was Mama

My husband got married in a suit very much like that - to his first wife. That marriage didn't last long but everyone stayed friends. He didn't cut off his pony tail for his marriage but his first father in law never liked it.
