VanLoon--Wilson
A pretty wedding was
solemnized on Tuesday afternoon, 8 Oct 1918, at the home of Mr.
and Mrs. Alfred VanLoon of Waterford, when Miss Ruth Haviland
Wilson, only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Wilson of Detroit,
was united in marriage to Mr. Roy Glenmore VanLoon, youngest son
of Mr. and Mrs. Alfred VanLoon.
The ceremony was performed
by Rev. Earle G. Dale of Boston, under a profusion of vine and
flowers.
The bride was very
prettily attired in white, carrying a shower bouquet of white
roses. Her bridesmaid, Miss Mildred Haviland of Detroit, wore a
dainty gown of pink and carried pink roses.
Mrs. Glenford Campbell
played Lohengrin's Bridal Chorus, as the bride was escorted by her
father to the drawing-room. The groomsman was Mr. Lorne Culver of
Waterford.
After the ceremony the
guests numbering over 30 sat down to a wedding dinner, where
congratulations were extended to the newly wedded pair. The
groom's present to the bride was a pearl necklace, to the
bridesmaid a pearl pin and to the groomsman a pearl tie pin.
The happy couple left on
the L. E. & N. from Lutesville where they were given a rousing
send-off by the party accompanying them. The bride's going away
suit was of wine color with hat to match. Upon their return they
will reside at Boston.
