I'd go  1958+ I had a coat very similar to the child at the front, the brides shoes are also pointed....grooms hair will fit that era.

I would guess 1960 - I was a bridesmaid that year and the older bridesmaid seen in the photo is wearing almost identical dress and shoes.

I'd have said about 1960 going from the bridesmaid's beehive hairstyle which was developed in 1960 by an American hairdresser.

I was married in 1962 and had the same pointed shoes that the groom is wearing.

I would put my money on 1960 to 1963. "Winklepickers" started giving way to "chisels". Dresses were about to get drastically shorter.

Its a shame that the family has not been recognised.. a nice picture.. fathers of the bride and groom appear to be missing.

fathers of the bride and groom appear to be missing.

Could one or other/both of them have been taking the picture(s)? The grouping doesn't seem sufficiently formalised for it to have been taken by a professional wedding photographer.
