The bride wore a gown of nylon net with embroidered dots and flowers designed with a fitted bodice, three-quarter length sleeves, as over jacket of lace and full skirt with a long lace train.

She carried a bouquet of white carnations and lily of the valley, centered with a corsage of two white orchids which she wore later.

Her attendants wore identical mint green sheath dresses with organdy overskirts and carried bouquets of mint green lily of the valley and white carnations.  Miss Karen Hansen was maid of honor and Miss Linda Laksmacher was bridesmaid.

The bride’s mother was attired in a beige dress and the groom’s mother chose pink nylon.
