In 1975 the average wedding music mix would have consisted of Steve Wonder, the Jackson 5, Elton John, and the Beatles.
Disco was also gaining popularity then and guests would soon be boogying to hits by bands like the BeeGees or ABBA.
The Underdog Royals
While certainly not as media-worthy or influential as Queen Elizabeth's or Princess Diana's big day, the 1973 wedding between Princess Anne and Mark Phillips still drew a fair amount of attention.
Her turtleneck gown and draping sleeves had a distinct '70s look. She definitely looked beautiful!
The Destination Wedding
Weddings broke out of the chapels and churches and ventured into more distant and exotic locations. The destination wedding was a huge hit by the mid-70s and couples were jetting to all kinds of weird and wonderful beaches.
Travel packages became super popular and couples were excited to explore the next frontier.
A Typical German Wedding
This royal German wedding was filled with turtle neck turquoise dresses and orange floral crowns.
This was definitely the signature look back then, especially in Europe.
The Age of Floppy Hats
This trademark wedding style was somehow super popular then. It was all about pastel colors and large hats.
