Beyer, Elly   (Sept 1953)

Bouquets of gladiolus decorated the sanctuary of Imanuel Evangelical Lutheran Church in Marshfield during a double ring ceremony which united in marriage Miss Elly Beyer of Marshfield and Donald Mueller, Spencer. The wedding was solemnized at 1:30 by the Rev. G. M. Krueger. The bride is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Emil Beter and the groom is the son of Mrs. John O. Mueller of Spencer, Route 2.

During the ceremony, Miss Elnora Roland sang the twenty-third Psalm and The Lord’s Prayer. Mr. George Pingl was the accompanist.

The bride, given in marriage by her father, was gowned in a sheer lace over nylon tulle dress. A nylon tulle panel was highlighted by escalloped chantilly lace on either side, and extended into a long court train. Her hand rolled fingertip veil of imported sheer illusion net, was attached to a lace cap that matched her dress. A shower bouquet of stephanotis and white carnations centered with an orchid formed the bride’s bouquet.

The maid of honor, Miss Betty Beyer, sister of the bride, was attired in a dusty rose strapless taffeta formal with full bouffant double net skirt. Her three-quartered length sleeved jacket, closed with tiny lace covered buttons. A lace and floral head-piece to match her gown completed her ensemble.
