    Vows Exchanged

    Before an opened Bible and an altar bouquet of white snapdragons in Lowman Methodist Church at Topeka, the wedding vows of Ann Longstaff and Clyde 0. McKenzie were exchanged at 3 p. m. Sunday, January 26. The bride is the daughter of Mrs. Doris A. Longstaff, Topeka. Mr. and Mrs. Oscar J. McKenzie, Willard, are the parents of the bridegroom.

    The bride, given in marriage by her brother, Dale Longstaff, McPherson, wore a ballerina-length gown of Chantilly lace fashioned with a slender bodice, long tapered sleeves, and a very full gathered skirt with sequin embroidered medallions. Her two tiered veil of pure silk illusion was held by a coronet of sequins and seed pearls. The bride carried a white Bible, a gift of the groom.

    Karen Longstaff, sister of the bride, was maid of honor and wore a pale blue satin princess dress with matching head piece and net mitts. She carried a colonial bouquet of pink carnations.

    Doris Kay Longstaff, sister of the bride, and Sandra Ziegler were candlelighters. Their dresses of medium blue taffeta were fashioned with scoop necklines, cummerbunds, and gathered skirts. They also wore pale blue net mitts and matching headpieces.

    The mother of the bride wore a blue-gray taffeta dress with navy blue accessories. Mrs. Oscar J. McKenzie, mother of the groom, wore a light gray suit with black accessories. Both wore corsages of Rubrum lilies.

    Neil D. McKenzie, Willard, brother of the groom, was best man. Audry Eldridge, Topeka, cousin of the groom; Buster Longstaff, Topeka, brother of the bride; and Gerald Lister, Topeka, cousin of the groom, were ushers.

    Assisting at the reception in Fellowship Hall of the church were Mrs. Dale E. Longstaff, McPherson, Mrs. Audrey Eldridge, Gail Morand, Sally Williamson and Betty Jehle Topeka.

    Mrs. McKenzie attended Kansas State College at Emporia where she was a member of Delta Zeta social sorority. She is now employed in the Employment Security Division of the State Labor Department.

    Mr. McKenzie attended Kansas State College at Manhattan and is now attending Washburn University. He is a member of Acacia social fraternity and Sigma Tau and Pi Tau Sigma, honorary fraternities.

    After a short wedding trip, the couple is at home at 1824 Lake, Topeka.
