Munro, Suzanne (Marriage – 28 July 1974)

Miss Suzanne Munro and Keith Allen Gardner pledged marriage vows to one another before the Rev. Lawrence Gruman in a 12:30 p.m. ceremony performed Sunday, July 28, in the chapel of the First Congregational Church, Madison. A reception was held at the Madison Inn.

Parents of the Madison couple are Mr. and Mrs. James Munro, Jr., Sarasota, Fl., and Mr. and Mrs. Russell Gardner, Rt. 1 Granton.

For her wedding, the bride chose a traditional white gown in A-line styling trimmed with lace, and fashioned with short, puffed sleeves and a deep hemline flounce. She carried a bouquet of white roses and baby’s breath as she was presented in marriage by her father.

Lisa Munro Vaughn, Madison, was her twin sister’s matron of honor. An arrangement of yellow daisies complimented her yellow and green floral print A-line gown.

The groom’s brother, Wayne S. Gardner, Savannah, Ga., served as best man.

Guests were seated by Russell Gardner, Jr., Teaneck, N. J., brother of the groom, by John Vaughn, brother-in-law of the bride, and by Joseph Guttmann and Kenneth Rittenhouse.

The music of Bach was played throughout the ceremony. David Crosby was the organist and pianist, and Martha Durkin was the flute soloist.

The new Mrs. Gardner received her Bachelor’s degree from Lawrence University, Appleton, and her Master’s degree in counseling and guidance from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, where she has been employed as an advisor in the school of nursing. Her husband, whose major is in rehabilitation counseling psychology, is presently a doctoral candidate at the university. In September, they will move to Honolulu, Hawaii, where he will be an assistant professor in the department of educational psychology at the University of Hawaii.
