Whafs white, costs billions of dollars,
and embodies the American dream?
For years, a white-gowned bride, multitiered
white cake, and shiny gold rings have been the
central icons for a grand American tradition that
remains vibrant despite changing times. Now
Katherine JeJLlison gives ns a comprehensive
cultural history of American weddings since World
War II, examining the development of our precise
and expensive standards for celebrating weddings
and the staying power of this phenomenon in the
face of enormous social, political, and economic
upheaval.
JellisoiFs book is the first to examine wedding
culture in the context of postwar cultural change,
analyzing the mechanisms that disseminated,
updated, and sustained the specific tradition of the
white wedding. Tracing the ritual back to the rise
of consumer culture in the postwar boom, it also
examines how Americans guaranteed the survival
of the white wedding into the twenty-first century
by amending the ideology that supported it and
reinterpreting the functions it served.
Jellison examines the ways the bridal business,
the media, and consumers responded to new
norms that expanded the notions of who was an
appropriate white-wedding bride. She particularly
examines the kev influences that have sustained
this cultural phenomenon for sixty years — the
bridal-wear industry, celebrity weddings, movie
weddings, and media coverage of the weddings-
next-door—to show that the white wedding has
become a unifying experience that crosses gender,
class, and racial lines.
Here are the mystique of the perfect white
wedding gown, a cavalcade of iconic brides
from Grace Kelly to Carolvn Bessette, and the
proliferation of reality weddings in magazines and
on television. Jellison draws on pro-wedding
writings of contemporary feminist authors, as well
as oral histories of bridal couples from diverse
backgrounds, and examines contemporary issues
such as the legalization of same-sex marriage
—and its backlash—and the post-Katrina
“Hurricane Brides” project.
Engagingly written and lavishly illustrated,
It’s Our Day tells how a fantasy event survived
counterculture movements and organized femin-
ism to become a multi-billion-dollar industry
supporting clothiers, caterers, jewelers, and
florists. But more than an exposé of commer-
cialism, it is a testament to the flexibility of the
*/
dream it represents.
