Laura Schroeder—Robert Ure
United at Evening Service
Repeating vows Saturday eve­
ning June 17, 1972 at Grace
Lutheran Church in Vale were
Laura Ann Schroeder and Ro­
bert Van Ure. Officiating at
the 7:30 p.m. double-ring cere­
mony in the presence of 125

one. A banner, designed and
made by the bride and groom,
symbolizing Christian mar­
riage, decorated the church.
The Grace Lutheran Choir
sang a composition, composed
especially for the wedding by
Dr. Richard Wienhorst, uncle
of the bride.

Parents of the newlyweds are
Mr. and Mrs. William F. Sch­
roeder of Vale, and Mr. and
Mrs. Ira Van Ure, Jr., Nyssa.
The bride, given in marriage
by her father was attired in
a floor-length gown of lace
over satin, fashioned with an
empire waist accented with seed
pearls, and the hemline of the
skirt was scalloped. The gown
featured a high neckline, and full
sleeves gathered into deep
cuffs. Laura designed and made
her gown. She carried a cas­
cade of white daisies and pink
tea roses. Her chapel length
veil of illusion, edged with lace
was held to a seed pearl head­
piece that had been worn by
her mother at the time of her
marriage.
In the tradition of something
old, she carried an heirloom
handkerchief of cut-lace, a gift
from her great aunt, Irene Ei­
lers. Something borrowed was
the six pence she V(M e in one
shoe, belonging to her friend
Lexi Van Ells; something blue
was two garters made by a
schoolmate, Ruth Knudtson.
Maid of honor was Miss Peggy
Schallhorn of Ontario. She wore
an Old Fashioned style gown of
turquoise dotted Swiss over sa­
tin. The full rustling skirt was
smocked at the waist and the
hemline was edged by two rows
of ruffles. The gown featured a
semi-round neckline, and full
sleeves gathered at the wrists
to form a ruffle.
Bridesmaids were Dana Ure
Brown of Weiser; Gayle Ku­
wahara and Kathy Schroeder,
both of Vale. Their gowns were
identical to that of the maid of
honor,
but in progressively
lighter shades of blue.
All
bridal attendants carried white
baskets ofpink and white daisies
interspersed with greenery.
Sara Schroeder was flower
girl. Her dress, styled like the
bridesmaids, had short sleeves
and was deeper shade of blue.
She carried a small basket of
pink and white daisies.
Candlelighters were Alan
Schroeder, Matthew Ure, Lau­
rel Ure and Lesa Ure. Jennifer
Ure was banner bearer.
The bridegroom asked
Charles McConnel of San Fran­
cisco to be best man. Ushering
the guests were twin brothers,
Garry and Larry Carpenter of
Madras; Paul Schroeder and
John Schroeder of Vale.
Following the ceremony, a
Champagne reception was held
at the home of the bride’s pa­
rents. A buffet dinner featu­
ring shrimp creole was served
the guests by Mr. Larry Gard­
ner of Treasure Valley Com­
munity College. A special de­
coration for the occasion was
two love birds on an arch which
enclosed a heart. It was scul­
ptured from ice with an ice pick
by Mr. Gardner.
The room was set with in­
dividual tables, centered with
small mugs of miniature blue
and white flowers. Mrs. Ralph
Eilers of Chicago, was in charge
of decorations.
The three-tiered wedding
cake was decorated with small
blue bows and surrounded at
the base with fresh daisies.
The cake was flanked with can­
delabra accented with floral
arrangements of daisies, pink
tea roses and greenery.
When the newlyweds left for
their wedding trip to the fa­
mily's cabin at Sumpter, Ore­
gon, the bridal bouquet thrown
by the bride was caught by
Debbie Delong of Willowcreek,
and
twelve-year-old
Mike
Scheer of Vale caught the blue
garter.
