The 1956 wedding of Hollywood actress Grace Kelly and Monaco’s Prince Rainier III was one of the most glamorous weddings of that era, and it continues to be a favorite to reminisce.
Kelly wore a gown created by Hollywood costume designer Helen Rose that was adorned with pearls, and her white pumps were also sprinkled with coordinating pearls.
“It was such an incredible affair, and it’s left such a mark on people,” the couple’s son Prince Albert told People earlier this year.
Another wedding that left a mark was that of John F. Kennedy and Jacqueline Bouvier in 1953 in Newport, R.I. Bouvier wore a gown created by designer Ann Lowe.
Some of Hollywood’s biggest stars were married more than just once or twice. In 1959, Elizabeth Taylor married Eddie Fisher — her fourth husband — in Las Vegas. That time around, she wore a green chiffon dress paired with matching green satin pumps.
