Hannan, Therese Joanne (Marriage - 17 December 1966)

Miss Therese Joanne Hannan of Denver, Colo., exchanged nuptial vows in a double ring ceremony at noon last Saturday with Charles Anthony Vesel, also of Denver, Colo. The Rev. Edward Bertz of La Crosse, cousin of the bride, officiated at the nuptial high mass in St. Anthony’s Catholic Church in Loyal. Bouquets of white chrysanthemums flanked either side of the altar. The church choir furnished the music.

Parents of the couple are Mr. and Mrs. Ray Hannan of Rt. 2, Loyal, and John Vesel of Greenwood and the late Mrs. Vesel.

The bride chose a white gown of embroidered Alencon lace, styled with a Bateau neckline edged with a scalloped pattern of lace. Double-tier, flared sleeves accentuated the fitted empire bodice. The soft A-line skirt was detailed at the hemline by a deep scallop border of lace. Her lace peau de Soie Camelot headpiece was secured to a cathedral-length veil of white silk illusion. She carried a bridal bouquet of white orchids arranged against eucalyptus leaves.

Her maid of honor was her sister; Miss Annette Hannan of San Francisco, Cal. Bridesmaid was Miss Karen Burns, a friend of Chicago, Ill.

The attendants wore long A-line dresses of cerise-colored chiffon. Their elegant empire bodices were accented with scoop necklines and long pouf sleeves. Matching three-tiered illusion headpieces and shoes completed their ensembles. Each carried a duchess bouquet of “Forever Yours” roses.

Brian Moore of Madison was best man. Groomsman was Robert Putz of Milwaukee. Ushers were Paul Burreau of Milwaukee and Ralph Landini of Greenwood.

The bride is a 1961 graduate of the Spencerian College in Milwaukee and has been employed as a free lance court reporter in San Francisco, Cal. She is affiliated with Pui Rho Zeta Sorority.

Mr. Vesel, a graduate of the University of Wisconsin is a district sales representative of a Milwaukee manufacturing firm. His fraternity is Delta Upsilon.

Mr. and Mrs. Vesel are spending their wedding trip in Aspen, Colo., skiing. They will reside at 370 East 11th Ave. Denver, Colo.
