Wojtowicz, Geraldine Ann (Marriage - 29 July 1961)

Wedding vows were exchanged July 29, in a nuptial Mass in St. Mary’s Catholic Church by Miss Geraldine Ann Wojtowicz of Neillsville, and Larry Allen Gollubske of Wausau.  The Rev. Fr. Bernard T. Kelly performed the double ring ceremony.

Parents of the couple are Mrs. Estelle Wojtowicz, Neillsville and Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence Gollubske, Wausau.

Given in marriage by her uncle and Godfather, John J. Klepek of Chicago, Ill., the bride approached the altar attired in a floor length gown with a fitted bodice.  Her fingertip veil was attached to a crystal crown. White roses and stephanotis made up the bridal bouquet. 

Bridesmaids were Mrs. Marge Hoeppner, groom’s sister, and Mrs. Carol Garbarski, cousin of the bride, both of Wausau.  They wore floor length dresses fashioned with three tiers of nylon chiffon over taffeta, in pink and mint green. Their bouquets were umbrella shaped of white lace over satin and pink carnations.

The groom was attended by his brother-in-law, Roger Hoeppner, as bestman; and his cousin, Bill Bitner. The groom’s brother, Bob Gollubske, ushered.

The wedding reception was held at the home of the bride.
