Brown conducting nuptial high mass.  Mrs. J. J. Lalor officiated at the organ and the St. Peter's quarter sang "Veni Cresto".  The bridesmaid was Miss Margaret Hulihan, sister of the bride, and Joyce D.

Following the ceremony the guests were tendered a reception and wedding breakfast at the bride's home, where the bridal party received under an archway of banked ferns and pink and white carnations.  Pink and white prevailed in the color scheme and chrysanthemums were used extensively in the decorations.  The Rutland Catering company catered and music was furnished by Copp's orchestra.
