She carried a beautiful bouquet of white lilies and chrysanthemums, the gift of the bridegroom, and was attended by two bridesmaids, Misses Gladys Watts (sister of the bride) and Florence Smith (friend). They wore costumes of dark navy blue with white felt hats. The duties of best man were carried out by Mr. Fred Church, of Olney, a friend of the bridegroom.
