THEIR HONEYMOON Newlyweds Keep Destination| Secret; Staying Somewhere in New England. By the Assoctated Press. PLAINVILLE, Conn. September 24 ~Mr and Mrs. John Coolidge’ were presumably somewhere in New England | today, beginning & honeymovon which they hoped would bring them & fort- night of obscurity. They were whisked away from the! home of Gov. and Mrs. John Trumbull, the bride’s parents, at 7:30 last night in a Connecticut official car driven by & State police chauffeur, their destination unknown even to the members of their | own families. Jechn Coolidge has re- fused to tell where he and his bride | would spend the next two weeks, Speeding away from Plainville at 50 miles an hour, ahead of showers of con- fetti thrown by guests at their wedding reception, they were soon lost to the view the multituces who converted their “simple and quiet wedding” yes- terday into the most momentous event | in the history of this 200-year-old com- munity. May Visit Homestead. Rumor said they would spend their | honeymoon touring the New England country where they were born and would visit the Plymouth, Vt., home- stead of the Coolidge: From a source close to the household | of the bride's parents it was learned that the car which bore them away was expected to return to Plainville to- morrow empty. { No one at the Trumbull mansion | would say whether the newlyweds were expected here again hefore October 7. when the groom must resume work at his clerical desk in the railroad office at New Haven. The reception at the Trumbull estate which followed the wedding rites was s scene of gayety until the bridal pair de- parted in the chill September dusk. As the new Mrs. Coolidge ascended the stairs of the home to doff the long- trained ivory satin wedding gown for her traveling costume, she tossed her bridal bouquet of ivory-tinted lilies into the midst of the guests grouped below. Catches Bridal Bouquet. Tt was caught by Miss Erma Funk of Bristol, Conn., from whose father the bride and groom purchased furniture for their four-room. $78-a-month apart- ment in New Haven Soon afterward the bride appeared in her traveling costume, a three-piece en- semble of hunter's green transparent velvet with a blouse of eggshell satin. Her hat was of green velvet to match her gown and her coat was of black cressalla trimmed with a large collar and cuffs of natural mink. ‘When the junior Coolidges had left with farewells ringing in their wake Mr. and Mrs. Calvin Coolidge lost little time starting the drive home to North- ampton, Mass. The Trumbull family spent the evening quietly at home, receiving sev- eral of their neighbors and most inti- mate friends. ‘The tension of weeks of preparation for a wedding, which attracted national interest, was loosed after the ceremony at the village Congregational Church yesterday afternoon. Crowd Is Rewarded. The erowds which thronged the vil- fage church yard behind the shoulders of half a hundred State troopers were rewarded for their vigil as the weddi service ended. ‘The bride emt smiling lrol):ln “llle :;,hul;:h o-dn: ttlfl a picture, her husband ne genially to the crowd, the former President waved his silk hat in acknowledgement of the cheers and his wife fluttered her chiffon handkerchief as the wedding party drove awa! The former oecupant of the White House used to advantage the hand- shaking technique developed in his most Tecent official capacity in greeting the Jong line of guests that flied past the Tecedving line at the wedding reception. He also consented to pose for photo- graphs, but when he detected & lump in the Oriental rug on which he was standing, he suspected that it was caused by a microphone belonging to one of the news reel men. § “What's that thing?” he said. “Take t away.” The microphone was removed and the pictures were taken—without sound. Eddie Weinstein, who played at Am- herst dances during John Coolidge’s college days, supplied orchestra music for the reception as his wedding gift to the bridegroom. Between orchestral numbers an ac- ordion player roamed about the sunk- en garden playing popular tunes. It was suspected that he had been rompted by some of the guests when gis accordion broke into the strains of “The Sidewalks of New York.” Each of the guests left the receéption with & small white box, marked with silvered initials “T” and “C.” containing & plece of the wedding cake. The simple Congregational wedding gervice and a simple ring ceremony made John Coolidge and Florence Trumbull husband and wife. The mar- riage took place at 4 p.m. yesterday 1n[ the Congregational Church, in the ?resem-e of only 82 guests, limited to hat small number in response to the ‘wishes of the bride and groom. ‘Two ministers officiated at the nup- tials. The wedding vows were read by the Rev. Kenneth Welles of Albany, N. Y., former pastor of the Congrega- tional Church at Northampton, where ex-President Coolidge makes his home. The Rev. J. Roy Wilkerson, of the Plainville Congregational Church, read the preliminary service, consisting of the vows of the church and the an- nouncement. As the strains of the bridal chorus from Lohengrin, played on the pipe organ by Prof. William Cham- mond of Mount Holyoke College, sounded through the yellow flower- decked church, the bridal party made i | CHARACTER ing soon.

PFirst came the four bridal attendants, | followed by Miss Jean Trumbull, who | sttended her sister as maid of honor. ‘Then came the bride on the arm of her father. John Coolidge, accompanied by his best man, Stephan Brown of Northamp- ton, entered the church from the right and awaited the procession &t the chancel steps. There he joined his bride and they stepped forward together as Mr. Wilkerson read the preliminary wedding service. A hush stole over the little church as | Mr. Welles began the actual wedding ceremony which united the bridal pair in marriage. “For better, for worse, for | richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death do you part.” The word “obey” was not used in the ceremony. John Coolidge then took the engraved platinum wedding ring from his best man and placed it on the finger of his bride, next to the engagement ring with its 13 diamonds which she has worn for several weeks. ‘Throughout the ceremony the vesper song of Mount Holyoke Coliege, adapted from an old Connecticut air, was played as an obligato: Then came the benedic- tion, which completed the service: d the wedding party began the recessional to "‘:le‘ strains of Mendelsohn's wedding march.

Their motor cars sped the party briskly along the patrolled street to the home of the bride’s father on ¥arming- ton avenue, where 400 guests awaited them for the wedding reception. At the reception, the former Presi- dent, relaxing somewhar, from his usual silence, smiled and chatted with mem- bers of the Trumbull family and guests. He wore a black cutaway coat snd striped trousers and had a white gar- denia in his buttonhole. Mrs. Coolidge was constantly sur- rounded by friends and well wishers. Both she and her husband scemed to | enjoy the festivity surrounding their son’s marriage. ‘The bride wore at the wedding cere- mony and the reception a gown of old ivory satin, designed in the long lines of the princess silhouette. Her veil of old ivory tulle was craped softly over her blonde hair, ornamented with duch- esse lace, falling in pancl effect almosi the length of her gown. The lace was lent her for the wedding by Mrs. Cool- idge. Her slippers were of ivory satin. Carried Sheaf of Lilies.
