Vandeberg, Pearl (Marriage - 13 Sept. 1941)

The home of Mr. and Mrs. Marvin Eide of the town of Grant was the scene of a pretty late summer wedding Saturday when her sister, Miss Pearl Vandeberg, was united in marriage to Robert Elmhorst, son of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Elmhorst of the township of York. Rev. A. H. Laesch of Granton performed the ceremony at 2:30 p.m.

The attendants were Mr. and Mrs. Victor Anderson, Christ Vandeberg and Elaine Elmhorst, the later being the groom’s sister.

The bride was dressed in a gown of white taffeta and a fingertip veil. She carried a bouquet of pink carnations. Mrs. Anderson wore blue silk and Miss Elmhorst work pink satin. Both dresses were long with shoulder corsages to match the colors of the gowns. The groom and his attendants wore navy blue suits.

Mrs. Elmhorst was graduated from the Neillsville high school last June. She had been employed since then in Chicago.

The couple will make their home on the farm of the groom’s parents for the present.

Out of town relatives who were here for the wedding are Almon Vandeberg and family of Prescott and William Vandeberg, St. Paul.

After the reception, 23 guests were served at supper in the Eide home, a dance following in the evening at Hake’s Pavilion.
