1960s weddings were characterized by a mix of traditional elements and emerging modern trends. Brides typically wore A-line or empire-waist dresses with shorter hemlines as the shift toward simpler, less formal styles took hold. Lace, satin, and tulle were popular fabrics, often with minimal decoration. The color palette was soft, with pastel tones like pink, lavender, and mint green, although white remained the classic choice.

Ceremonies were often held in churches, and receptions featured classic touches like tiered wedding cakes, champagne toasts, and dancing. The growing influence of pop culture and the counterculture movement also brought a sense of individuality, with some couples opting for more casual or unconventional ceremonies.
