bride. shortly after noon Monday OF
the Count LAsElo Jono Maria Henrik
Simon szechenyl fourth son OF Count
Emerich szechenyi OF the ancient
Hungarian house OF SEechenyi.
The wedding was the costliest and
most magnificent that has ever taken
place In America. The wealth repre-
sented by the $50 guests could have
purchased an European kingdom.
The great house OF Mrs. Cornelius
Vanderbilt, the brides mother. at
Fifth avenue and 57th and 5sth streets
had its grandeur transformed for the
occasion with a new splendor that be-
spoke the spending OF money in unlim-
tied quantity.
The marriage ceremony itself was
reminiscent OF some Of the state mar
riages OF continental Europe rather
than OF the marriage OF an American
girl. II took place in the great ball
room on the main floor, facing Fifth
avenue in It's length. and the great REQ
tangular chamber. filled with the
bridal party and the guests, was like
n glittering picture out OF fairyland.
