cnn rr May 21, 1927 WINNETKA TALK Candlelight and Spring Flowers Wedding Keynote In the mellow light of tall, three- branched candelabra which edged the aisle of the Church of the Holy Com- forter last Saturday evening, Miss Marian Reese became the bride of Harry Donaldson, son of Mrs. H. V. Donaldson of Evanston. The Rev. Le- land Hobart Danforth read the service before the altar banked with ferns and palms, with two large bouquets of pink roses and blue larkspur at either side. The wedding reception was held im- mediately after the ceremony at the home of the bride's father and mother, Dr. and Mrs. Charles N. Reese, 829 Ashland avenue, Wilmette. The bride's dress was fashioned with a tight fitting bodice of white satin, with the neck embroidered in crystal and pearls. The bouffant skirt was of embroidered net ruffles, caught with clusters of orange blossoms. The long court train of white satin was edged with lace and caught with clusters of orange blossoms at the end. The same flowers held the tulle veil in place. Gardenias, white sweet peas, and valley lilies composed the shower bouquet. Mrs. H. C. Reese, as matron of honor, wore a period dress of silver green taffeta, embroidered in green. Miss Winifred Bilsland, the maid of honor, was in a gown of white satin with tight fitting bodice and bouffant skirt, the top of which was satin, the lower part lace. Chenille, ribbon flowers in pastel shades, crystal beads, and hand painted flowers outlined in crystal beads, trimmed the skirt. The bodice was trimmed with two red roses at the shoulder and a large bow of peach, rose and blue ribbon at the waist. Mrs. Louis Mohr, Miss Elizabeth and Dorothy Joy, and Miss Patty Fores-| man, the bridesmaids, wore period | frocks of chiffon in pale and rose pink, with full skirts of ankle length made with chiffon ruffles. Each frock had a long scarf tie at the shoulder, with ends hanging almost to the end of the skirt. The bridal attendants all wore head bands of silver ribbon with tulle. Pearls, rhinestones and ribbon of pastel shades joined ribbon and tulle. They all carried Colonial bouquets of flowers in shades harmoninzing with their gowns. Albert Rand of Wilmette was best man, and the ushers were Dr. H. C Reese, Chester Speakman, Stephen Lusted, Edward Tubbs and Olney Brown. Mr. and Mrs. Donaldson have gone to Atlantic City and New York for about a fortnight. They will spend the summer with Mrs. Donaldson's parents at their home in Wilmette. Mr. and Mys. George E. Shipman, 432 Warwick road, Kenilworth, leave Saturday evening for a three weeks' trip in the East. ERNE a pl : J SSAA 5 The Greatest Drive Ever!
