The matron of honor, Mrs. Sheriff, wore a lovely frock of dull blue crepe with a coronet of pink carnations and forget-me-nots and carried a bouquet of matching flowers. Little Miss Pamela Van Campen was the flower girl, frocked in pale pink glove silk and a beanie of pink carnations and she carried a basket of the same flowers.
