New Home in Kentucky Awaits Calgary Bride
Claiming interest south of the border was the mid-afternoon wedding in Grace Presbyterian Church, Dec. 31. of Miss Geraldine Winnifred Swanson and Captain David Andrew Lowe, U.S. Marine Corps. Baskets of white chrysanthemums and ferns massed the candle-lit altar, before which the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. L. Swanson of Calgary, and the son of Mr. and Mrs. Harold Kreisher of Van Nuys, Calif. repeated marriage vows. Dr F. S. Morley officiated.
Given in marriage by her father, the bride wore a ballet-length gown of ivory Chantilly lace poised over candlelight satin and complemented with redingote of ivory velvet. Her chapel veil of silk illusion misted from a headdress of lace and velvet and she carried a colonial bouquet of gardenias, yellow roses and lilies of the valley.
SISTER ATTENDS BRIDE
As matron-of-honor for her sister, Mrs. R. J. Frost wore an ankle-length model of cherry red velvet styled with bouffant skirt and strapless bodice modified with waist-length jacket. Matching velvet fashioned her halo hat and she carried a bouquet of white and red 'mums. Lieut.
R. J. Frost, PPCLI, was groomsman, ushers were Capt. T. Berger and Lieut. A. J. Theiss, both of the PPCLI. Harold Rimmer presided at the console and W. Davis sang "Because." White 'mums were used in profusion at the home of the bride's parents on Richmond Road for the wedding reception which Mrs. T. Wishart and Mrs. E. R. Upton, aunts of the bride, assisted. Dr. F. S. Morley gave the bridal toast.
Following a wedding trip to Denver and Oklahoma City, Capt. and Mrs. Lowe will reside in Fort Campbell, Ky. To travel the bride wore a frock of Java brown on lines cord styled on princess lines complemented with white hat and brown accessories. Gardenias formed her corsage.
