Fowler-Powell.
St. Cloud (Florida), Tribune: The
if wedding of Miss Renah Fowler, of St.
Cloud, and Mr. Bert Powell, of O’Neill,
Nebraska, at the Presbyterian church
on Wednesday, December 8th, was a
beautiful affair, and very largely at
/ tended. The church decorations were
I typically Floridan in character, all
' the windows, doors and choir rail
draped in Spanish moss and wild
grape vines, while tall pine trees stood
as sentinals at each door, filling the
whole building with their spicy odor.
The back of the organ was draped
with moss and on top were boquets of
roses and a large moss basket filled
with pure white starry blossoms. The
high handle tied with a large fluffy
bow of pink tulle, every window ledge
was banked with laurel and boquets of
roses, pink and white being the colors
used. The recess back of the pulpit
was filled with branches of bay trees
and cabbage palm, all banked with
Spanish moss and trailing vines of
Southern similax, while hanging from
the arch was a moss basket trimmed
with smilax and filled with roses. The
entire decorative scheme was the work
of Mrs. C. L. Gibbs, of Tampa, ably
assisted by Mrs. Manuel Hollenbaugh
Mrs. James Rowland and Mr. Lym
Daugherty.
^ After the seating of the invitee
guests, Mrs. J. K. Conn sang very
sweetly “Because," by Guy de Har
delot, and promptly at 3 o’clock Mrs
Gibbs began the bridal music fronr
Lohengin, and the ushers, Mr. Lynr
Daugherty and Mr. Frank O. Gilbert
advanced down the west aisle of th<
church, followed by the two littli
flower girls, Ruth and Helen Cisne, ii
sheer white dresses and white ribbons
carrying baskets of pink and whit<
roses, the handles tied with pink rib
bons. Next came little Miss Eileei
Moon, carrying a moss basket filled
with rose petals, which she scattered
before the bride, who never looked
sweeter or prettier than in her dainty
wedding gown of white silk crepe de
chine, with lace yoke and pearl trim
mings. She carried a large arm
boquet of white roses and asparagus
ferns, tied with white tulle, with show
er of tulle and narrow satin ribbon.
She was met at the altar by the groom
and the impressive ring service was
used by Rev. W. L. Haclcett to unite
them in marriage. The dream music
was softly played during the ceremony
and the march motif for the recessional
The bridal party and invited guests
were driven to the Presbyterian par
sonage, where the wedding reception
was held, and the newly wedded pair
received the congratulations of their
friends, who wished them every hap
piness in the future life.
The house was beautifully decorat
ed by Mrs. I. O. Gilbert, an intimate
friend of the bride. The reception
room, where the wedding gifts were
displayed, was exceptionally pretty,
as was also the dining room, where
the color scheme was white and
green. A lovely basket of white roses
was suspended from the ceiling over
the table and broad, white satin rib
bons ran from it to each corner, end
ing in a large bow. Here were served
refreshments of wedding cake and
cream to the guests present, who were
entertained during the afternoon with
music from a fine victrola furnished
by the Seminole Pharmacy and played
, by Mr .Dougherty.
The many lovely gifts of silver, cut
1 glass, linen and china mutely testified
' to the love and esteem felt for the
’ young girl who has endeared herself
. to a host of friends, both old and
i young, during her four years’ sojourn
