Presumably this is the marriage that you are referring to?

Marriages Sep 1900

Jones    Anne Jane        Bangor    11b   711
Owens    John Christmas        Bangor    11b   711

I wonder if John was born at Christmas time or if that is his mother's maiden name?

Have you tried looking in Welsh newspapers to see if there is anything there?

Few people had photographers at the wedding, it's a modern custom; nor would guests have had cameras; more likely to have had studio photos taken around the time.

If there was a wedding photo if wouldn't necessarily be a tradition wedding photo, maybe a studio photo taken in their best clothes. My Grandparets had their photo taking when they married in 1904 and they just wore their good outfit, I wouldn't have known that it was a wedding photo if it wasn't written on the back. My Grandma is wearing a light coloured blouse and dark skirt with a frill round the bottom and a light coloured hat with a brim and Grandad is wearing a thre piece suit. The earliest family photo of a wedding that I have with the bride wearing a wedding dress is 1922.

I have a group photo with bride, groom, parents, bridesmaids etc taken outside in what is a 'wide passage' between terraced houses in a town in 1906.  They were not wealthy so not impossible to find a photo at that time.

I also have a wedding photo taken with the bride in a wedding dress and all the family including bridesmaids, but taken in front of  two houses, 1924. My great grandparents just have a studio photo taken in 1892.

If they were anything like my family - not very affluent - there might be a photo of the wedding party at the bottom of the garden in front of the shed.

And then you would need to know a member of the family who thought to keep it, to find a copy.  ;)
