REYNOLDS-HARDIN.

The wedding of Miss Elizabeth
Reynolds and Mr.. James Hardin
Thursday evening Nov 18th, was a
beautiful and interesting event
The bride is the only daughter of
DR.. and Mrs. Aristides Reynolds and
favorite niece of Mrs. Walter Par
mer of Nashville, for whom she was
named. The ceremony was conduct
ed by a brother of the bridegroom
in the brides home and was witness
ed by near relatives only. The
bridal robe was made by the BRIDE
mother and the various details of
the happy event were as nearly as
possible similar to the wedding of
Dr. and Mrs. Reynolds in Green
vile, Ala, about thirty years ago.
The first floor was deliberately
decorated with wild smilax sent
from Greenville, Ala, and two
rooms with yellow pompon chrysan-
themums also. The parlor had a
bay window arranged for the cere-
mony with Norway pines, ferns and
four very tall candelabra each hold
ing seven long white candl as.
Streamers of white tulle formed an
aisle across the parlor from the win
dow to the reception hall Arch
deacon William Hardin, brother of
the bridegroom, in his white vest
ments and gold embroidered stole,
stood within the greenery of the
window beyond the satin cushions
On which the bridal pair knelt, with
the bridegroom and Mr. Clarence
Reynolds on his right and the brides
parents on the left.
The orchestra in the rear hall
played 90 Promise Me" first and the
bridal chores from Lohengren as
the bridal pair came down the
stairs.
Miss Ruth Dunklin, maid of hon
or, in white satin, yelled in white
chiffon and carrying pink roses,
preceded the bride, who was eXquis-
itely beautiful in ivory duchess sa-
tin, made in empire style with long
tulle sleeves and a train falling
from the shoulders, a fischu effect
Of rose point lace, low girdle of
seed pearls finished with tassels and
tulle veil adjusted with a chaplet
of orange blossoms. Her only jew
elry was necklace and pins of seed
pearls, presents from the bride
groom, and a diamond ring, an heir
loom in her mothers family, for the
something borrowed" Her bou-
quet was of gardenias showered
with lilies of the valley.
The brides maids, Misses Sadie
Gober and Agnes Smith, entered
with the bride, one on each side, as
attendants. Her father met her as
she approached the clergyman and
bestowed her in marriage.
After receiving best wishes, seeing
the wedding cake sliced, and par
