The bride, who was given in marriage by her father, wore a gown of white chiffon fashioned with full bodice, high neck, long full sleeves, a wide beaded girdle and a full skirt. A Juliet cap of pearl beads held her tulle veil and she carried a shower bouquet of white orchids.

Miss Ruth Ferguson was maid of honor for the bride, and she was gowned in blue tulle made with close-fitting bodice and bouffant skirt, with which she wore a large blue transparent hat and carried a Colonial bouquet.

Miss Edyth Geilich and Miss Louise Farmer were the bridesmaids, and they were dressed alike in blue, with face veils to match held by head wreaths of flowers and carried old-fashioned bouquets.
