One of the largest weddings Of the
season was that of Miss Nannette Getts-
chalk and j. Bond Francisco, which
took place last night at the residence OF
the BRIDES parents. Mr.. and Mrs. L.
Gottschalk, at the corner OF Georgia
Belle and Seventeenth streets. The
ceremony was witnessed by about So
persons, who were the relatives and
friends of the contracting parties. At
the conclusion of the ceremony, which
took place at 8 O'Clock, gen eral recep-
ton was held until II o'clock. The lat
ter affair was largely attended. Both of
the young people are we'll known in
social circles in Los Angeles, but are
more prominently identified with the
musical world of the city. The bride
has only recently returned from Stntt-
CART, Germany, where her voice was
cultivated for several years. She has
high, clear soprano, and has been heard
here both in concert and churches.
She is the only daughter OF Louis
Gottschalk, who was consul at Stuttgart
under the administration of President
Harrison. The groom is one OF the fin
est violinists in this section, and his
Saturday afternoon pops" have always
been unusual events in the city. He 10
also an artist of much talent, his prin-
cipsl works being in oils. The house
was beautifully decorated. The balus-
trade in the hall was entwined with ivy
and white carnations. Pepper boughs
| and date palm leaves were over the
doorways, while potted plants we're dis
| played. At the emo of the hall WAS the
music room. The mantel was banked
with fuchias, Henrietta roses and red car
nations. Palm leaves, with bouquets of
peoples, adorned the walls. In the dim
ing room the decorations were of yellow,
and across the bay window were ropes
OF pepper and marguerites. Over one OF
the doors was half portiere of column
bine and marguerites. The mantle was
banked with columbine, marguerites
and carnations.
The marriage took place in the front
drawing room. In the bay window,
where the couple stood, was back
ground OF potted plante. Over it was
stretched an arch OF ivy and csrna-
tons, and in the center was sus-
pended true-lovers' knet, formed
of Jasmine, carnations and ferns.
Stretched from either side OF the bay
window were two satin ribbons, tied in
bow in the middle. An elegant cush-
ion OF white satin, the top sprinkled
with La Narque roses, on which the
bride and groom knelt to receive the
blessing. The room was further orna-
mented with asparagus, syringas and
carnations. The music room, adjoining
the front drawing room, was In red, the
effect being gained by q profusion OF
roses and carnations of this color.
