There is a description of the wedding in 1939 (no photo) but hard to tell in black and white but Miss. M Mooney is there.

Apologies ShaunJ

The description of the wedding outfits doesn't seem to match the picture. Shoulder sprays are mentioned and boleros for the bridesmaids but I can't see them in the photo

The photo and the newspaper account just don't match.

Was Maggie Rooney a bridesmaid to anyone else.

I was thinking the same, did she have any older sisters who could be the bride in the photograph?
