was banked with evergreen studded
with white daisies, the bank extending
from the church wall to the sanctuary
rail. The platform in the front of the
church was one bank of green studded
with daisies, while here and there tall
palms and ferns added much 20 the eff
fective yet quiet elegance of the deco
rations. Leading from the left hand
entrance to the audience room was a
pure white mating that extended
down the center aisle to the pulpit in
front of which was a snowy white fur
rug on which the bridal couple stood
while the ceremony was performed.
The bridal path down the center aisle
was made more attractive by the knots
of evergreen and daisies at the outer
end of each pew. The seats directly in
front of the pulpit were reserved for
the parents. relatives and the most in
innate friends of the bride and groom.
These pews were separated from the
remainder of the church by broad
bands of satin ribbon While a chain of
| daisies divided the upper from the
lower part of the aisle down which the
bride and attendants were to pass
