OF the bride to wear formal dress

A READER.
Yes, indeed, it would be per.
fectly correct for you to have
two flower girls even though you
are to have only one bridesmaid.
There is no reason for hurting
the feelings of the tiny ladies,
for they can both attend you.
And children love to be in a we'd
ding party.

maid of honor. Then your pro-
cessional would be led by the
ushers. if you are having ushers.
Then the maid of honor would
follow, walking alone. and then,
just ahead of you. would walk
the two little flower girls.
2. 1t is correct for the gentle
men at a formal wedding to wear
formal clothes, and so it ~uld
be correct for your father to
wear the usual formal morning
clothes. / wish could be more
definite than that as to answer

you see, dear lady. all one can

she wishes to, cannot decide
