Statz, Dolores (Marriage - 28 September 1957) 
 

Miss Dolores Statz, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Max Statz of Neillsville, and Verland Schmidt, son of Mr. and Mrs. John Schmidt of Loyal, exchanged marriage vows Saturday at 9 a.m., before the Rev. Joseph Eisenmann in St. Mary’s Catholic Church, Neillsville. 
 

She had for her attendants her sister, Mrs. Wayne Kramer of Marshfield, Mrs. Bob Schmidt of Janesville, and Mrs. Anton Statz of Marshfield. 
 

The bride was attired in a shirred tulle and Chantilly lace gown with a full bouffant skirt enhanced by tiers of lace and tulle ending in a court train.  A Sabrina neckline edged with pearls and sequins topped the fitted bodice.  Long tapered sleeves came to a point at the wrists.  A queen’s crown of sequins and seed pearls held her fingertip veil of silk illusion.  White orchids centered in white carnations and greenery made up the bridal bouquet. 
 
Mrs. Kramer, as matron of honor, wore a cotillion blue waltz-length gown, with a scooped neckline. The bouffant net skirt was fashioned with a wide cummerbund.  Her ensemble was complete with a bouquet of white and blue pompons tied with blue ribbon.  Mrs. Schmidt and Mrs. Statz, as bridesmaids, wore gowns identical to that of the matron of honor, and carried bouquets of pompons.  
 

The groom was attended by Wayne Kramer as best man and Tony Statz and Bob Schmidt as groomsmen. 
 

A reception and dinner were held in the American Legion Hall, which was decorated in blue and white wedding bells and flowers.
