Freid, Sally Mary (Marriage - 16 November 1963)

A double ring ceremony was performed Saturday afternoon by the Rev. Evan Dieck in Zion American Lutheran Church in the Town of Pine Valley that united in marriage Miss Sally Mary Freid of Eau Claire, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Walter Freid, Rt. 2, Neillsville, and George A. Mohr, son of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Mohr, of Neillsville. The altar was adorned with white and yellow chrysanthemums, accented with bronze chrysanthemums.

"Because" and "The Wedding Prayer was sung b y Mrs. Rosemary Fuller, who was accompanied at the organ by Mrs. Deon Spangler.

The bride approached the altar with her father wearing a floor-length gown of French imported hand-clipped Chantilly lace over satin, complimented by a flowing chapel train. The Basque bodice of lace featured a scalloped Sabrina neckline trimmed with imported seed pearls.  Long, tapered sleeves came to a point at the wrist. Tiers of lace and pleated tulle cascaded from the bodice into the skirt. Cabbage roses and sequins trimmed the tiers of lace. A crown of silk organza, pearl peps and seed pearls, held her veil of imported illusion. She carried a full length bridal bouquet of yellow roses with stephanotis.

Miss Helen Kuzjak of Eau Claire was her maid-of-honor.  Bridesmaid was Miss Beatrice Mohr of Neillsville, sister of the groom. The attendants were attired in street-length dresses of silk organza, which featured portrait necklines, shot cap sleeves and fitted bodices. The sheath style dress had removable overskirts of matching silk organza and lace.  Matching veil, attached to a silk water lily, adorned their heads. They carried bouquets of yellow and bronze chrysanthemums. The maid-of-honor was attired in lime green and the bridesmaid wore a lemon yellow dress.

Kenneth Mohr attended his cousin as bestman. Groomsman was Harold Mohr, brother of the groom.  Ushers were Robert Henning and Michael Moore.

Both Mr. and Mrs. Mohr are graduates of Neillsville High School. She has been employed in Eau Claire and Mr. Mohr is with the armed forces stationed in Virginia. They have left on a wedding trip enroute to their new home in Virginia.
