The Guam Museum collection consists of several hundred thousand items, each of which tell part of the story of the CHamoru people and life in the Marianas across thousands of years.
The collection includes a series of wedding dresses dating back to the late Spanish-period of Guam History, many of which have been donated by former First Ladies or wives of elected governors of Guam. Here are three dresses from the collection.
From left to right, the dresses were donated by Lieutenant Governor of Guam Madeleine Bordallo, First Lady Geri Gutierrez and First Lady Lourdes Camacho.
