The material from {which the gown was made was a |gift to her from a cousin who was living in Korea. The gown was fash- ioned with princess panel front- piece flowing into the fullness of the. skirt and train. To this was added a short flare- back jacket with long tight fitting sleeves and a high standing col- lar. Tiny buttons marched down the front of the jacket and up each | sleeve half way to the elbow.

The bride’s mother chose a floor length gown of aqua lace over taf- feta and a red rose-bud corsage, while the groom’s mother worea dress of black lace over turquoise taffeta and had a bouquet of roses. The groom’s grandmother, Mrs. An« nie Clites, wore a gown of a soft green shade and a corsage of pink roses The wedding reception was held in the church parlors immediatly after the ceremony.
