Alexander, Janiece Evelyn (Marriage - 1953)

Trinity Lutheran Church, Unity, provided the setting at 1:30 p.m. Saturday for the marriage of Miss Janiece Evelyn Alexander, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Cecil Alexander, Owen, and Dale Lindekugel, son of Mr. and Mrs. Oscar Lindekugel, Loyal. The Rev. Charles E. Witt, Marshfield, performed the marriage ceremony.

The bride, who was given in marriage by her father, was attired in a gown of ivory satin and Chantilly lace fashioned with an illusion yoke, fitted bodice, and long lace sleeves tapering to points at the wrists. Her full skirt extended into a long train and her finger-tip veil of illusion was attached to a Juliet cap accented with lace and orange blossoms. She carried a cascade bouquet of white Easter lilies and hyacinths centered with an orchid.

COUPLE’S ATTENDANTS

Miss Jean Alexander, Owen, the bride’s only sister, was maid of honor, and Miss Arla Lindekugle, Loyal, the groom’s sister, and Mrs. Alfred Edblom, Unity, and bride’s aunt, were bridesmaids.

All were gowned alike in frocks of taffeta with net over skirts and matching stoles in colors of blue, pink, and yellow, respectively. Each carried a bouquet of gladioli, mums, and hyacinths.
