A RAINBOW WEDDING

One Of the recent brides in the exclu-
sive set lately had a most original we'd
ding. Generally weddings arc very con-
ventional affairs, at which the bride ap-
pears in the stereotyped white. and her
attendants in either pink or blue or
green. The decorations are generally
made to harmonic in color with the
shade Of the bridesmaids gowns, or
else are Of the non-committal green and
white variety
This bride was determined to be orig
inal, and so she hit upon the happy
idea Of having a rainbow wedding This
may sound at first little daring. as
perhaps IL was. but certainly the ef-
rect was not at all glaring
She chose only the paIest shades. The
bridesmaids walked in pairs. as they
always do, but the colors Of their dresses
merged gradually through all colors of
the rainbow. beginning with pink of the
first two. and ending with the yell
low OF the last two.
Each pair wore hats trimmed with
the same flowers that their bouquets
were composed OF. and these flowers
exactly matched the shade OF the dress.
The decorations also wenth through
every color Of the rainbow. Green was
used as a background, with this profu-

sion In color in front. Care was taken,
of course, not to put too close together
any colors which did not harmonic. and
the effect was one of sUmptuous lowell
ness. rather than of bad taste. as one
might at first have imagined. Indeed.
the whole effect was very pretty and
original. the only conventional details
being the brides white dress and white
roses. and the monotonous evening dress
of the groom and the ushers.
The rainbow wedding ought to be par
ucularly tempting to the June bride, as
at this season Of the year the idea is
so easy to carry out, owing TO the roses.
which, in this month, blossom in such
varying hues. She should be able 10
obtain them in every color except. of
course. blue and violet. srd Tor these
two colors she might GO to some other
flowers peculiar TO the season. ssuch as
viOlets or cornflowers.
She might even improve upon the
originator OF the idea by carrying a
bouquet composed not OF the conven-
tional white roses, always so suggestive
of a funeral. but of roses of every pos
sible hue. She would then look more
like a bride and less like the pale and
trembling creature who goes Up to the
altar as If TO an execution.
