Nauertz, Carol Marie (Marriage - 17 May 1969)

Miss Carol Marie Nauertz, daughter of Mrs. Alice Nauertz of Neillsville, became the bride of Donald John Boon, son of Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Boon of Rt. 1 Greenwood, May 17, at 2 p.m. in St. Mary’s Catholic Church in Neillsville. The Rev. George M. Nelson performed the double-ring ceremony in the presence of 230 guests.

The bride was attired in a white gown of silk organza that featured a mandarin collar, demi-raised waist and long, full, gathered cuffed sleeves. Satin spiral lace trimmed the collar, waist, sleeves, and the front of the A-line dress. A train was enhanced with lace motif, and a bridal illusion veil was attached to her headpiece. Her bouquet consisted of stephanotis entwined with ivy.

Mrs. Kenneth Burr was matron-of-honor. Bridesmaid was Lois Boon. Their gowns were of light pink chiffon over taffeta, with long, sheer sleeves gathered to a cuff. Daisy flower braid trimmed the cuffs, demi-raised waists and necklines. Their head pieces consisted of deep pink velvet bows with daisy trim. Each carried a colonial bouquet of daisies and baby breath.

Harold Boon served his brother as bestman, and Gary Nauertz, brother of the bride, was groomsman. Larry Nauertz and Alan Boon were ushers.

Robert Boon, another brother of the groom, was ringbearer; and Lisa Zickert, niece of the bride, was flowergirl. She wore a dress identical to that of the bride, with a daisy headpiece. She carried a basket of daisies.

Sister Elise presided at the organ and Kathy Bauer sang.

A reception, dinner and dance were held at a local supper club for 230 guests.

Mrs. Boon is a graduate of Neillsville High School and is employed as a secretary by a local auto agency. Mr. Boon also is a graduate of Neillsville High School, is working with his father’s construction company. The couple will reside on Rt. 1 Greenwood.
