Eastertide Wedding at st.
Johns. IL
Never did bride have more perfect
wedding day than was accorded Miss
Jessie E. Robinson when, on Easter
Monday at St. Johns church, she became
the bride of Thomas Dewey of Mont
pelier, Vermont. The morning was
cloudless, the joy and sweetness of
Easter still lingering in the air and the
birds carolling their sweetest in joy at the
awakening of spring.
St. Johns Episcopal church had been
made very beautiful for the services of
Easter and this joyous ceremony of
Easter Monday. Within the chancel
vases of fragrant white carnations were
used and the altar bore only pure white
lilies while at its base tulips were banked,
the only touch of color. Without the
chancel rail pink carnations and green
foliage plants formed marked and
pleasing contrast to the chaste white of
the altar.
Promptly at eight o'clock, to the strains
of the Princess Louise Wedding March"
ian English composition sent the bride
in manuscript by dear friend), played
by Miss Alice Campbell, the bridal party
entered the church, the bridesmaid, Miss
Edna Sco6eld, preceding the bride, who
entered upon the arm of M. L. Ayers.
At the altar, where the rector, Rev. c.
E. Dobson; awaited them, they were met
by the bridegroom, accompanied by his
best man, w. D. Kirkman, and the be-
trothal proceeded, the bride being given
away by M. l.. Ayers. Unattended, the
bride and groom approached the altar,
where the beautifully simple yet impress
sive ring ceremony was concluded. The
bridesmaid and best man awaited their
return at the chancel rail and followed
them from the church.
The bride wore her going-away gown
of soft gray cloth with touches of white
in the coat adornment and hat of gray
with flowers of shaded blue, and she car
ried an arm bouquet of bride roses. The
bridesmaid also wore gray costume and
gray hat with pink trimmings and carried
pink roses.
Following the ceremony, invited guests
repaired to the rectory, where, after con-
) gratulations, dainty four-course we'd
ding breakfast was served by the young
ladies Of the Altar Guild, with. whose
work Mrs. Dewey was always closely
associated. Mrs. George Dobson, Mrs.
Dodd and Mrs. Scofeld assisted the
Guild, as did also Misses Gladys Scofeld,
Maize and Nellie Dinsdale, Gertrude
Thompson, Ethel Dodd and Stella Rau.
The tables were prettily adorned with
vases of white hyacinths and carnations
and smilax. while the place cards, bear
ing cupids and wedding bells, proved
upon examination to be shaped to repre-
sent'Vermont or North Dakota, the map
being filled in and Montpelier or Dickin-
son located upon the reverse.
