Miss Anita Yvonne McNary, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Paul Lear McNary, 1136 South Sixteenth st., became the bride of Vincent Verlon Keith, son of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas J. Keith, Ford City, Pa., at a beautiful ceremony Sunday afternoon at 3:45 o’clock.
Candle light was used throuout the McNary home where Dr. D. P. Mueller, pastor of Grace Methodist church, read the impressive ceremony before an attractive arrangement of palms, ferns and yellow and bronze chryanthemums. Two seven-branch candelabra were placed on either side of the improvised altar.
Mr.s T.J. Mattingly, harpist, played a group of beautiful selections preceding the ceremony, including “I Love You Truly” and “At Dawing”. The strains of the wedding march from “lohengrin” were played for the entrance of the bridal party.
Yesterday’s bride, who was given in marriage by her father, was charming in a gown of ivory brocaded satin, which had been worn by her grandmother, Mrs. Jessie Steward Brownfield, at her wedding in 1891 and later was worn by her mother, Mrs. McNary, at her marriage in 1916.
Chiffon lace cascaded in a panel down the skirt of the wedding gown, and the basque was trimmed with pearl and silver beads. The bridal veil of tulle was floor length and was caught by a tiara of orang blossoms which had been work by the bride’s mother at her wedding. The bridal bouquet was of Johanna Hill roses.
Miss Helen Roberts, Barnesville, was the maid of honor. She wore an attractive dress of grey wool and her corsage was of pink roses.
Robert Atkinson, Barnesville, served Mr. Keith as best man.
For her daughter’s wedding Mrs. McNary wore a brown brocaded crepe dress and her corsage was of bronze and yellow mums.. Mrs. Keith, mother of the bridegroom, was attired in a dress of black and gold, and yellow and bronze mums formed her corsage.
A reception for 75 guests followed the ceremony. Mrs. George Ruddle, aunt of the bride, and Mrs. Ray Turner, the bride’s cousin, presided at the lovely ten table. A three tiered wedding cake was used as the centerpiece and tapers in crystal holers were placed at either end.
