Antique cabinet studio photograph from Cokato Minnesota of newly wedded couple c. early 1900s.

A woman of nice fashion with a smart stylish laced wedding dress and iconic long veil and white gloves. The man i s with a rose in his lapel and 'groomed' to the 9's.

As with most of these early photos the couple do not smile or give an ounce of emotion across their face while diligently waiting the photographer to ready his equipment.
But wouldn't it be fun to read their minds. 'Honeymoon and/or can't wait to get out of these shoes!"

The photographer is Akerlund of Cokato Minnesota. That would be the Gust Akerlund Studio. A Swedish immigrant August "Gust" Akerlund (1872–1954). 
Akerlund operated the studio for most of the first half of the 20th century.

Very good condition with slightly bumped corners. Nothing on the back. See photos and email with any questions. Thanks for looking.
