Selves, Sharon K. (28 December 1976)

The Granton United Methodist Church was the setting for the December 28 wedding of UW-Platteville students, Miss Sharon K. Selves and Kurt I. Cook. The Rev. William Noble officiated at the 7:30 p.m. ceremony for the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Lee Selves and the son of Mr. and Mrs. William Cook, all of Rt.2 Granton

The bride appeared in a chapel-length gown of white velvet adorned with pearl de tailing at the neckline and waist and fashioned with a full train. A full-length veil completed her ensemble, which was accented by a bouquet of elegance carnations, white pompons, baby’s breath and holly.

Attending the couple were Miss Elaine Thorsell, Black River Falls, and Loren Meddaugh, Granton. Miss Thorsell wore a gown of cranberry-colored knit and carried a nosegay of white carnations, blue starflowers and holly.

Miss Shirley Stanley was the organist.

Following the ceremony, the newlyweds greeted guests at a reception in the church parlors.

The new Mrs. Cook, a 1976 graduate of Granton High School, is presently majoring in business administration at the UW-Platteville, where her husband is majoring in ag engineering. He is a 1975 Granton High School graduate.

They will live in Platteville.
