The bride's hairstyle and the specific silhouette of the lace gown with a long veil and floral headpiece are very characteristic of the late 1910s and early 1920s. The groom's formal attire is conservative but fits this window perfectly. The embossed cardstock mount was a premium studio offering that peaked in popularity before 1925.
