BAY CITY, WI – The Pierce County Historical Association (PCHA) in Bay City is hosting a vintage wedding display beginning on Sunday, June 1, 2025, at their regularly scheduled Sunday Open House from 12:00 to 4:00 p.m. Our display features over 20 wedding dresses from the late 1800s to the early 1900s, we also have photos and other artifacts from Pierce County weddings during that time. The display covers brides and grooms from all throughout the county.
This has been a labor of love for the volunteers at the PCHA and we would love to share it with the community. The planning, curating, and assembly of this display took several months. We even plan to have some wedding music played by Chris Falteisek, one of our very talented PCHA members on the old church organ, for our opening day (June 1, 2025).
Join us for special snacks and see how wedding attire has changed over the years and look through our photos. You just may recognize relatives or neighbors from the past. Our location is W6321 Main Street, Bay City. This special exhibit will be available for viewing for at least a year. The Open Hours are the 1st Sunday of every month 12 to 4;00 p.m. and every Tuesday from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p,m.
