The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1893-07-12

Large as is the seating capacity
of Central Union church, it was
taxed to the utmost last night on
the occasion of the nuptials of Miss
Susan Alice Young and DR.. R. W.
Anderson. The church had been
handsomely decorated with flowers
and wreaths, while the chancel
was literally imbedded with palms
of different kinds. The organ was
also beautifully dressed with
wreaths, etc. Much of the beauty
of the decorations was lost, how
ever, from the fact that the main
chandelier could not be lighted,
owing to insufficient power at the
electric light works.
Shortly after s o'clock the bridal
party entered from the Beretania
street side, the three bridesmaids,
Miss Bertha Young, Miss Nellie
Young, sisters of the bride, and
Miss Lita Vida, leading the way
down the left hand aisle, followed
by the bride leaning On the arm of
her father, Hon. Alex. Young, who
gave her away. Down the other aisle
came the two groomsmen, Prof. j.
Q. Wood Of Oahu college and
Mr.. E. Benner, followed by the
groom leaning on the arm of
his best man, w. Porter Boyd,
United States Vice Consul-General
Both parties met in the central
space in front of the church, where
Rev. DR.. E. G. Beckwith was await
ing them, and the marriage cere-
mony at once commenced, and a
few short minutes sufficed to join
two loving hearts in one. After the
ceremony the newly-wedded retired
into the vestry, where they received
the congratulations of a number of
friends, and the audience dispersed
to the joyful sounds of Lohen-
grin's wedding march, Mr.. F. M.
Wakefield presiding at the organ.
The bride was dressed in pure
white silk with white veil and
orange blossoms, Misses Vida and
Nellie Young in pink silk and Miss
Bertha young in white silk.

Later in the evening a reception
