Bills, Kay Lois (Marriage - 14 July 1956) 
 

The Neillsville Methodist Church was the scene Saturday of the marriage of Miss Kay Lois Bills to Vernon Drescher.  The Rev. Virgil Holmes, pastor of the church, performed the double ring ceremony at 2 p.m. 
 

The parents of  the couple are Mr. and Mrs. Delbert Bills of Neillsville, Rt. 4, and Mr. and Mrs. Daniel Drescher, also of Neillsville, Rt. 4. 
 

The bride, given in marriage by her father, chose a white lace and tulle gown for her wedding.  The tight-fitted bodice was fashioned with a high neckline complete with a small white collar.  Long sleeves came to a point at the wrists. Her bouquet was composed of a white orchid surrounded by small white carnations. 
 

Attending the bride was Miss Nancy Kuehn as maid of honor.  Her bridesmaids were her sister, Miss Betty Bills, and Elaine Lezotte, sister of the groom. 
 

The groom was attended by his brother Robert Drescher, as best man.  Groomsmen were Donald Ayers of Eau Claire and Virgil Lezotte, brother-in-law of the groom.  Wayne Hollenbach and DeWayne Huebner, both of Neillsville, ushered. 
 

Miss Sarah Albrecht accompanied by Charlotte Covell at the organ, furnished music.   
 

Immediately following the ceremony a reception was held in the church dining room.  
 

Upon their return from a wedding trip to the northern part of Wisconsin they will reside on Rt. 4, Neillsville. 
 

Both young people are graduates of Neillsville High School.  The bride is employed in Neillsville and the groom is engaged in construction work.
