The skirt, fashioned with a front panel, trimmed with motifs of lace and seed pearls, had side and back fullness and extended into an aisle-wide chapel train.

    Her bouffant veil was held by a crown of seed pearls, accented by three teardrop pearls. She carried a cascade of white orchids, stephanotis and fern.

    Mary Ann DeDonder attended her sister as maid of honor and bridesmaids were Loretta Vail and Karleen Lenherr, Kansas City. They wore street-length dresses designed with scoop necklines, elbow-length sleeves and bell-shaped skirts. Miss DeDonder’s dress was gold; Miss Vail’s, bronze; and Miss Lenherr’s, green.
