The bridegroom’s father officiated at the nuptial service for which his mother was the organist and Miss Annette Booher was the pianist.  The two played a piano-organ duet during the service.

The bride was attired in a white sand crepe and Chantilly lace gown and a short white silk illusion veil attached to a floral crown.  She carried a small white Bible and bouquet of pink and white carnations and lilies of the valley.

Miss Marlene Johnson of Withee, maid of honor, had a pink and white corsage.  Donald Lilly, Elk River, Minn., was best man and Steven Booher, Greenwood, was usher.

A noon luncheon to the immediate family and wedding party was held at the groom’s parental home.  On June 3 a reception was held at the Wesleyan Methodist Church in Fillmore, N.Y.  After June 15 the couple will be living in Omaha, Neb., at 616 31^st Ave.
