FALLS VILLAGE
Preston-Dean

The wedding ceremony of Marian Elizabeth Dean and Edward William Preston was performed at the home of the brides parents, Mr. and Mrs. George H. Dean, on June the seventh, and was largely attended by reia- tives, many of whom came from long distance, friends and nelghbors. All these brought to the bride many testimonials of their love and esteem in the way of gifts of gold coin, sil- yer, linen, china, cut-glass, pictures, books. rugs, and other valuable ar ticles.
 The ceremony was performed by a cousin of the bride, Rev. Lee M. Dean of New Haven, on the spacious lawn in an enclosure of evergreens and ferns erected for the occasion. The bride was attended by her sis ter. Mrs. Mark Hurlburt, and the groom by his brother, Walter Pres ton. The marriage service of the Episcopal church was used in it's entirety and included the double ring ceremony, making solemn and impressive occasion.
 The bride looked most charming in her gown of white Canton crepe decorated with plaitings of ribbon and headings of pearls, and wearing a veil held in place by bandeau of pearls. Her bouquet was of white roses and maiden-hair ferns. The sister who was married five years ago in the same month and place was daintily gowned in blue Canton With beaded decorations, wearing hat ot the same color, and carrying a bou- ouet of pink antirrhinum.
 A reception followed the ceremony and a collation. of sandwiches, sher- bet, cake, and cream was served to the large number of guests on the lawn, and all went "merry as wedding bell'' until the advent of confetti and other paraphernalla of a like sort which made the departure of the newly married couple hilarl- ous event which will long be remem- bered by them. But we trust the shower of good wishes which was added to the "send-off" will also fol- low them to their new home in Nor folk and have as lasting a place 7n their memory.
