Grambort, Darlene (4 MAY 1963)

After May 15, Mr. and Mrs. James Lamont will be at home to friends at 114 First St., Abbotsford. Mr. Lamont is employed at Lamont's Service, Inc., and his bride is a bookkeeper at the L.C. Christensen Co., Abbotsford.

Miss Darlene Grambort, daughter of Mrs. Walter Grambort and the late Mr. Grambort, and James Lamont, son of Mr. and Mrs. Malcolm Lamont, all of Abbotsford, repeated their marriage vows Saturday morning, May 4, 1963 at St. Bernard's Catholic Church, Abbotsford. The Rev. Raymond B. Schulz officiated at the double ring ceremony at 11 o'clock.

The bride, who was given in marriage by her elder brother, Ronald Grambort, was attired in a floor length satin gown with a chapel sweep. The long sleeved bodice had a bateau neckline embroidered with sequins and seed pearls. The skirt was detailed with a lace appliqued front panel. Her fingertip veil was attached to a crown of seed pearls. She carried a cascade arrangement of yellow roses, white carnations and rosebuds tied in ribbon streamers, interspersed with ivy.

Attending the bride as matron of honor was Mrs. Joe Kremsreiter, sister of the groom. Mrs. Ronald Grambort, sister-in-law of the bride, and Miss Bonnie Leichtnam, friend of the bride, were the bridesmaids. They are all of Abbotsford.

The bride's attendants were dressed alike in floor length gowns of nylon organza in romance blue. Embroidery detailed the bodice and the back panel. In their hair, they wore matching floral crowns with small veils. They carried bouquets of yellow and white daisies.

James Grambort of Abbotsford, brother of the bride, was best man, and Dale Toelle of Colby and Don Albrecht of Abbotsford, friends of the groom, were the groomsmen. Seating the guests at the church were Dan Decker and Joe Kremsreiter.

Mrs. Grambort wore a light blue linen suit with blue accessories and had a corsage of a pink cymbidium orchid and small pink roses. Mrs. Lamont chose a silk organza dress in beige and wore frosty malt and beige accessories. Her corsage was made of a cymbidium orchid and yellow carnations.

Mrs. Flo Heppner, grandmother of the groom, was honored with a corsage of pink roses and white carnations.

Festivities of the wedding day included brunch at the Casa Grande and a reception at the village hall, followed by a five o'clock dinner at St. Bernard's Church Hall. In the evening was a wedding dance at the Sportsmen's Park, Colby.
