De Muth, Sue Elaine (Marriage - 18 August 1959)

On a wedding trip to Florida are the former Sue Elaine DeMuth and Donald Leo Piirainen.  The couple was married Saturday in the Loyal Methodist Church, with the Rev. Alfred Attwood officiating.

White Chantilly lace fashioned the floor-length gown of the bride.  Long sleeves and a sweetheart neckline detailed the fitted bodice.  Her fingertip veil was attached to a cap-style headdress.  Her flowers were yellow roses and white mums.

The bride, daughter of Mrs. William DeMuth of Loyal, chose for her maid-of-honor her sister, Miss Connie DeMuth, and for her bridesmaid, another sister, Miss Kay DeMuth.  Each wore identical turquoise gowns with white hats and each carried an arrangement of white mums and daisies.

Best man for the son of Mr. and Mrs. Leo Piirainen of Milwaukee was Gary Korman of Sault Ste. Marie, Mich., cousin of the groom.  Wayne DeMuth, brother of the bride, was groomsman.  Ushers were Richard Hansen of Granton, and Kenneth Verhalen of Loyal.

A dinner and reception were held in the church dining room.

The bride is a graduate of Loyal High School and is employed in Milwaukee. The groom also is employed in Milwaukee.

The couple will make their home in Milwaukee.
