of hand-made rose point lace,
appliqued; the same lace forming
a border. The veil, falling in a
long train, was arranged from a
cap, which also was a com
bination of the net and lace, a
tiara being arranged in front,
and a wreath of flowers banding
the back. The bride's bouquet
was a cascade one of lilies of the
valley, gardenias, and white sweet
peas.

dresses alike in white chiffon,
made in Grecian style with wide
waist bands, square necklines
with a bit of stitching, and very
full skirts. All three wore tiaras
of flowers in their hair, and their
bouquets were cascades of white
tulips and maiden hair fern.

of the bride, was flower girl.
She wore a frock of white or
gandy with a wreath of flowers
in her hair and carried an all
wjiite nosegay.
