fj ding will come off But I have
) a job in a private school up
i state and, after explaining
J ing what sort of nn affair my
fiance and 1 would like, I left
the actual arranging up to my
parents.
Now I learn that instead of
floral decorations we'll have
just a few potted palms. In
stead of a small orchestra,
we'll have one accordionist.
The wedding photographs will
be taken by my uncle, not
i r,...-; l A ..j u
P I uy H piuit smuiihi. .11111 mr:
t wedding cake will be made
by my aunt. Mother said the
caterer tacked nn so many
extra charges that she de
cided to save SfiO on the cake.
I know we're not rich. But
why must my wedding slip
f.f back to such austerity?
Mrs. D.C. - We started out.
with the best of intentions.
We wanted to give Evelyn
the wedding of her dreams
and we thought we had the
right amount of money saved
up to pay for it. We even felt
more "flushed" than others
in our income bracket, be
cause Evelyn is a modest
wage earner herself and was
paying for her own wedding
gown and most of her honey
moon wardrobe.
But the minute the word
i "wedding" leaves your lips,
everyone's mouth waters for
a big profit. Ask to have pic
tures taken and each pose is
$100 a dozen. The caterer
trapped us with a price that
seemed fair, but then slipped
us news of the things it didn't
cover, like liquor, a wedding
cake, souvenirs and decora
! tions.
; Evelyn will still have a nice
' wedding. It won't be a bon
' anza for the wedding business,
though.
...
i The Council: Anyone whose
engagement has been an
nounced knows how long is
the gravy train which pulls
up at the nearest track. Mrs.
C. will nod assent to this
description from a recent sur
vey: "A marriage-bound cou
ple sets looms spinning, ovens
heating, engravers etching,
vintners bottling, hothouses
cooling, orchestras rehearsing,
presses turning, diamond cut
ters cutting, gift registries
registering, social secretaries
consulting, invitation address
ers addressing, flashbulbs
popping and parents praying."
Naturally this billion-dollar
Industry runs in horror from
the couple who, if they're
New York City folk, get mar
ried for SI 1 at City Hall. That
covers $5 for a blood test, S3
for a license and S3 for the
civil ceremony. And it con
centrates its attention upon
the average wedding for a
500 total, Just to keep busy,
but is always ready to pile
on the extras which can bring
the cost of a well-done wed
ding to as much as S100.000.
So, in the face of such finan
cial astronomy, it's no wonder
Mrs. C. panicked and back
tracked. Does Evelyn really think
the trimmings are worth going
into hock for? Her wedding
doesn't sound one bit austere,
especially with so much affec
tionate home -talent pitching
In. Her parents seem to have
taken sensible steps to halt a
runaway situation, similar to
the commercial! z a t i o n of
Christmas, Easter and Moth
er's Day Retaining the proper
emphasis, the right values, is
up to the customer.
Mrs. C. has the good sense
to know when to weave the
Stop sign at the salesmen.
Some parents, on the other
hand, with incomes as low as
$6,000 a year have found
themselves paying off $10,
000 weddings for years and
years
If Evelyn and her husband-to-be
want to divert some of
their honeymoon funds for a
fancier wedding, we offer
them news of a honeymoon
bargain. If they register with
the Niagara Falls Area Cham
ber of Commerce (Strand
Theatre Bldg.) for a June trip,
they'll get a "twofer" pass -that
is. two for-theprice-of-one
at the Falls.
