Step into the past and experience the evolution of bridal fashion at Bridal Elegance: The Art
and History of Wedding Fashion, an enchanting exhibition by the Wayne County Historical Museum.
Showcasing approximately 50 stunning wedding dresses from the early 1800s to the present, this
collection highlights the changing styles, fabrics, traditions, and craftsmanship that have shaped
bridal wear for generations. Accompanied by exquisite accessories—delicate veils, heirloom
jewelry, elegant handbags, timeless headpieces, and groom’s attire—this exhibit offers a rare inclusive
glimpse into the beauty and sentimentality of wedding attire from the past to the present. You will enjoy
seeing gowns worn by the Knollenbergs, the Gennetts, and possibly by someone you might know or
have known. Whether you are a history lover, a fashion enthusiast, or a romantic at heart,
Bridal Elegance is an unforgettable journey through the timeless grace of “I do”.
