Iconic Vintage Celebrity Weddings Photos That Will Make You Nostalgic

Joe DiMaggio & Marilyn Monroe – 1954

Marilyn Monroe was perhaps the most striking feminine symbol of the ’50s and ’60s. It was during the heights of her career when she met the Major League Baseball center fielder for the New York Yankees, Joe DiMaggio, who subsequently became Monroe’s second husband.

Monroe and DiMaggio eloped at San Francisco City Hall in 1954. The media somehow succeeded in sneaking a few photographs. The problems began following Monroe’s “skirt scene” on The Seven Year Itch as DiMaggio felt embarrassed. The two divorced nine months after the wedding, with Monroe accusing her husband of mental cruelty and DiMaggio pointing fingers at his wife’s sterility and poor personal hygiene (according to Daily Mail).
