Jackie Kennedy Throws Wedding Bouquet, 1953
Jackie throwing the bouquet. JFK and Jacqueline Lee Bouvier were married on September 12, 1953. The wedding dress was created by designer Ann Lowe. Jacqueline Lee Bouvier Kennedy Onassis (July 28, 1929 - May 19, 1994) was the wife of John F. Kennedy and First Lady of the US during his presidency. They had four children, two of whom died in infancy. As First Lady, Kennedy devoted much of her time to planning social events at the White House and other state properties. She often invited artists, writers, scientists, poets, and musicians to mingle with politicians, diplomats, and statesmen. The restoration of the White House was her first major project as First Lady. During her husband's presidency, she became a symbol of fashion for women worldwide. On November 22, 1963, she was riding with her husband in a motorcade in Dallas, Texas, when he was assassinated. She and her children withdrew from public view after his funeral, and she remarried in 1968 to Greek shipping magnate Aristotle Onasis. In January 1994, she was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. She died in her sleep in 1994, two and a half months before her 65th birthday. Photographed by Toni Frissell.
