Five Things That Happened On July 2 In Soap History

In 1991, Jack (Matthew Ashford) and Jennifer (Melissa Reeves) said, “I do” on Days of Our Lives. Because Jack accidentally invited the whole town with news cameras rolling, the wedding took place at an outdoor stadium where Salem's Wild West Show took place. This presented a few complications, particularly when the groom was the victim of mistaken identity and got knocked out by a rodeo performer. Luckily, he came to in time for the ceremony. Jennifer's unique gown was created by Costume Designer Richard Bloore, constructed from cotton lace from Switzerland that was hand-beaded with crystal bugle beads and seed pearls. The off-pink flowers decorating the shoulders also featured sewn-on crystals.
