Mementos of My Parents' Wedding

Seventy-five years ago today, my parents got married...

Going through my mother's memorabilia, I discovered that - back in 1944 when my father applied for a marriage license,  the certificate (in Alberta) cost 50 cents!

My mother kept the hand-typed receipt.

(And attached to the receipt is a clipping of their engagement announcement in the Edmonton Journal...)
