THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: SUNDAY, DECEMBER 9, 1900, WEDDINGS AND C0OD CHEER Fairfield-Woolworth Nuptials Are the Event of the Week. MANY HOSTESSES AT HOME TO FRIENDS Ante-Christmans Sesson s Filled with * Bvents and Soclety Drags Out Its Yule Logs Agninst That Oceasion, The Fairfield-Woolworth ~wedding was the only really formal occasion of the week, though there were a number of elaborate teas and “afternoons’ There is a no- ticeable revival of the kensington among feskionable maids and matrops, and It has brought with it a reappearance of many of the features that marked the quilting bees and afternoon teas enjoyed by our grand- mothers. Though the substantial dinner has been replaced by the daintiest of luncheons the presence of bright silks has been re vived and the totting shuttle is ugaln in the bands of women who make thiugs for Christmas. Numerous though they have been of late, Bo two kensingtons have been just alike The announcement variety s the most sat- tefactory, aftording as it does such an epportunity for discussing these all-lm- portant affairs. The modern kensington is no longer an affair for women exclusively. Of late the men have been dropping in at the last, after the Christmas things have been carefully tucked into the workbags. During tho fine days of the last week the golfers have not been ldle, but have im- proved every hour. This may account for the few formal affairs, for when society plays golf it does little else. Falrfield-Woolworth. The marriage of Miss Woolworth and Mr. Fairfield, which was solemnized at Trinity cathedral on Tuesday, though simple was one of the most beautiful weddings that has ever taken place In Omaha The chancel was screened from the body of the church by a tall partition of southern smilax, leaving only the arch through which Mr, How and Dr. Bridges ushered the sixty- three guestd to thelr seats in the choir stalls. The simple arrangement of palms about tho stalls and the allar, where a few clusters of American Beauty roses were also ued, and the subdued light of the catbedral completed an effect most impressive. At 4 o'clock the Mendelssohn wedding march sounded and Bishop Willlams and Dean Falr, followed by Mr. Fairfield and Mr. Clifford Smith, his best man, entered from the side, while Miss Emily Wakeley, as mald of honor, preceded the bride and her father down the long Isle and into the chan- cel, where the party met at the altar. The long and impressive double ring cere- mony was used, Dean Fair reading the be- trothal and Bishop Willlams the marrlage service. During the ceremony the organist played the “Prizo Song"” from “The Meistor Singer."” The bride’s gown was of heavy ivory satin with trimmings of hand-made silk lace. The bodice was of lace with a yoke of tucked chiffon and sleeves of lace and satin. The bride’s boquet was of lilies and stemia, tied with chiffon, and the bridal veil was of tulle. A lively Swedish march was played as the party left the churc Judge Woolworth and Mrs. Howard recelved the entire party at the Woolworth home at 4:30 o'clock, when the wedding breakfast was served.
