Schroeder, Florence (21 Mar 1923)

A very pretty wedding took place at the Veefkind Lutheran Church Wednesday, March 21, 1923, at 2 o'clock, when Florence Schroeder, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Albert Schroeder, was united in marriage to Mr. M. Vanderhoof Jr., son of Mr. and Mrs. M. Vanderhoof Sr.

Angelia Eske played the march "here comes the bride" as they marched to the altar where Rev. Eske conducted the ceremony that pronounced them man and wife.

The bride's gown was light blue silk canton crepe with overlace. A long white silk veil was worn and a beautiful shower bouquet of roses, sweet peas and ferns was carried.

The bridesmaid Frieda Schroeder, sister of the bride, wore peacock blue silk canton crepe and the maid of honor, Ester Krake, cousin of the bride, was dressed in gaslight green silk canton crepe. Alma Rahm, niece of the bride, acted as flower girl, and Raymond Mellenthin, nephew of the bride, acted as ring bearer.

The groomsmen were Ward Vanderhoof, brother of the groom, and Roy Schroeder, brother of the bride.

After the ceremony the relatives a few friends gathered at the home of the bride, where a bountiful wedding dinner was served. The parlor was beautifully decorated in pink and white and the dining room in blue and white and sweet peas and ferns. The evening was spent in singing and playing games.

The young couple is well known and has a host of friends who wish them a long and prosperous wedded life.

The young couple will go to housekeeping at once on the groom's father's farm which he has rented.
