The church was decorated with greens, which added to the charm of the beautiful occasion. Miss M.

The bride came down the aisle leaning on the arm of her father and the groom approached the altar from one of the reception rooms of the church, while the wedding party surrounded the two, who were united by the ring ceremony. Rev. Valentine offered an appropriate prayer that divine providence bless and prosper what had been done in his name and the bride and groom, followed by the wedding party, filed out of the church.
The bride wore a beautiful gown of Mouseline-'e soie over white silk and carried a shower bouquet of white brides' roses and lilies of the valley. The maid of honor wore pink organdie over pink and carried a cluster of carnations and maiden hair fern. The bridesmaids wore white organdie over white.
At the residence of the bride's parents a reception was held attended by about 100 of the friends and relatives of the young couple. The house was beautifully decorated for the occasion, and the bride and groom received with dignity the many congratulations and good wishes from their friends. After a wedding breakfast, served by Caterer Mosback, Mr. and Mrs. Evans left on the 9.16 train for Philadelphia, where they spent the night, leaving the next morning for Washington, Richmond and the south on a honeymoon.
