Then the bridesmaids, in palest pink tulle frocks, each pair carrying between them a long garland of pink roses, and wearing wreaths of pink roses on their hair.
Patty and Daisy Dow were the first pair, and very lovely they looked as they traversed the flower-hung room.

Garlands of pink roses were everywhere, on the walls, from the doorframes and windows, and gracefully drooping from the ceiling.

Next came Elise, Maid of Honor, in a gown of slightly deeper pink, and then Mona, her father beside her.
The bride's gown was of point lace with a very long court train of embroidered satin.

Her veil, of old lace, was an heirloom from her mother, and was held by a wreath of orange blossoms.

Roger's gift of a diamond pendant was her only jewel.
After the ceremony, as the bridal party retraced their steps, the bridesmaids sang softly, "O Perfect Love," and then they took their places for the reception, the orchestra's strains broke forth, and the festivities began.
