Lenzkow, Dorothy (Marriage - 21 June 1942)

The marriage of Miss Dorothy E. Lenzkow, Neillsville, daughter of Grant, to Arthur E. Dux, son of Mrs. Anna Dux, Neillsville, took place Sunday, June 21, at the altar of the Holy Trinity Lutheran church, La Crosse, Wisconsin. The Rev. Harold N. Stoffel read the single-ring marriage service.

The bride wore an entrained gown of satin and lace with a long, lace-trimmed tulle veil and pearl coronet. Her bouquet combined white roses and baby’s breath with white satin ribbon showers.

Mr. and Mrs. La Verne Rowe, brother-in-law and sister of the bride, served as attendants. The maid of honor was attired in pink sheer and lace. She wore a shoulder corsage of pink roses. Lohengrin’s wedding march was played.

The home of the bride’s sister, where the reception was held, was decorated with cut flowers and streamers of pink and white and a white wedding bell. A four-tier wedding cake with pink decorations, served as the centerpiece at the dinner table. Only the immediate relatives were present at the reception.

In the evening the couple gave a dance at the Silver Dome ballroom Neillsville, for their many friends.

Both the bride and groom are graduates of the Neillsville High School. The bride is employed as a stenographer at the Farm Security Office in Neillsville, Wis. The groom is employed at the Standard Oil bulk station. Mr. and Mrs. Dux have lived in Neillsville all their lives and will continue to make their home here.
