Miss Lucille Adams, of Edgar, was given in marriage by her father, Anthony Adams, to Alex Hilber, of Abbotsford, son of Mr. and Mrs. E. Hilber of Wausau, Wednesday morning at 9:00 o’clock in the Catholic church at Edgar.

The Rev. Aloysius J. Steins, uncle of the bride, read the double ring service and also sang the nuptial high mass.

The bride wore a gown of white ninon, fashioned with a fitted bodice, sweetheart neckline, and long sleeves which ended in points over the wrist. The full skirt ended in a lace edged train with inserts of Alencon lace. The finger tip veil fell from a pearl head dress. She wore a single strand of pearls and carried a shower bouquet of red roses and white carnations.

Attending her as maid of honor was her sister, Martha, of Edgar. She wore a frock of taffeta with pink and blue flowers on a white back ground, trimmed with blue velvet bows. It was designed with a fitted bodice and full skirt. She wore a white poke bonnet with ribbons tied under the chin and she carried a nosegay bouquet of white carnations and red roses.

Her bridesmaids were Mrs. Arthur Hilber, sister-in-law of the groom, of Marathon, and Miss Lorraine Stachura, cousin of the groom, of Mosinee. They wore dresses alike in pale blue taffeta, made with fitted bodices and full skirts. They wore blue bonnets and had wrist corsages of gardenias.
