So It Was Just A Simple Wedding
The mother of the bride gives the reader her account of the events leading up to the big moment! Judy's engagement to Stewart Goldman is the start of the trials and tribulations that ensue. From the dinner party, to the showers, and on to the choice of linens, silver and china, it is always the Goldman standards that must be thought of. She manages to have her way where it counts most -- and the wedding's success is her reward.
FD IN FOCUS
CUFFLINKS
Cufflinks, or cuff buttons, existed as early as the late 17th century, having replaced the cuff string by which men had fastened the ends of their sleeves since the Middle Ages. By the 1860s, with the emergence of the modern shirtsleeve cuff in Europe and Russia, the wearing of cufflinks was widespread among gentlemen of the upper and middle classes. Although ladies took to wearing them for a time (circa 1905) they remained a male accessory.
