Tauchen, Sharon Mae (22 Jul 1972)

After a honeymoon trip to an undisclosed location, Mr. and Mrs. David Melvin Noland will be making their home at Route 2, Medford. The bride is the former Sharon Mae Tauchen, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Vincent Tauchen of Dorchester, who was wed Saturday, July 22, 1972 to the son of Mr. and Mrs. Carl Noland, Medford, at a 1:30 p.m. ceremony performed by the Rev. Joseph N. Miller at Holy Rosary Catholic Church in Medford.

The bride wore a white organza empire gown with Venice lace trim, which featured a Victorian neckline, bishop sleeves, and a chapel train. The cathedral veil was attached to a headpiece made of Venice lace and pearls. She carried a cascade arrangement of yellow roses, stephanotis and ivy.

A friend of the bride, Miss Maryanne Miller of Des Plaines, Ill., was maid of honor, and Miss Sangroom served as bridesmaid.

The bridal attendants were attired in identical chiffon apricot colored gowns with multi-colored flowered skirts with empire waists. They carried cascade arrangements of apricot and yellow carnations.

Other members of the wedding party were Alan Brandl, Medford, a friend of the bridegroom, who served as best man, and groomsman Patrick Noland, Medford, a brother of the bridegroom. David Rau, Dorchester and Michel Noland of Medford were the ushers.

A reception was held at the Dorchester Memorial Hall after the ceremony, followed by a 4:30 p.m. dinner and dance in the evening.

The bride is a 1967 graduate of Medford High School and received a BS degree in education from WSU-Eau Claire, and was employed by the Dorchester Cooperative. Her husband attended Medford High School and is engaged in farming.
