Schwarze, Marjorie L. (9 FEB 1943)

Miss Marjorie Lorraine Schwarze, Madison, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Albert Schwarze, Greenwood (Clark Co., Wis.), exchanged wedding vows with Marvin Ernst, also of Madison, son of Mrs. L.A. Ernst, Spencer, in a candlelight ceremony performed in the Zion Reformed Church at Greenwood, Tuesday evening, Feb. 9, 1943, at 8 o’clock. The Rev. B.M. Fresenborg read the nuptials, and Miss Gustafson, organist, played Lohengrin’s wedding march and accompanied Mrs. Vilas Emberson, soloist, who sang, "Oh Promise Me," and "I Love You Truly."

The bride, attired in a white silk marquisette dress, fashioned with a lace bodice and sweetheart neckline, carried a colonial bouquet of pink carnations and white snapdragons. Her fingertip veil fell from a coronet of seed pearls.

Mrs. Roy Zarling, Milwaukee, sister of the bride, dressed in a laurel rose colored embroidered silk marquisette gown and wearing a blue velvet Alice-in-Wonderland bow in her hair, was maid of honor. Miss Judy Karsten, Milwaukee, bridesmaid, wore a copen blue marquisette dress with lace inserts, and a pink velvet bow in her hair. Both carried colonial bouquets similar to the bride’s.

Ralph Jones, Spencer, brother-in-law of the groom, was best man.

Following the ceremony a reception for the immediate relatives and close friends was held at the home of the bride’s parents.

The groom, who attended Stevens Point and Whitewater State Teachers Colleges, is employed by the Gateway Lumber Co., Madison. Mrs. Ernst, a graduate of the Spencerian Business College at Milwaukee, is an employee of the State Board of Vocational Education at Madison. After March 1 they will be at home to their friends at 22 46 Keyes Ave., in that city.

Guests from away were Mr. and Mrs. Clyde Jacobitz, Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Jones, Mrs. Emma Lamp, Spencer; Clarence Strozinski, Wilton; and Mrs. Judy Karsten, and Mrs. Roy Zarling, Milwaukee.
