Berrett, Luella (26 NOV 1939)

Sunday, Nov. 26, 1939, at a 1:30 o'clock double ring ceremony performed by Rev. G.W. Longenecker at Sunset Point, Miss Luella Berrett, daughter of Mrs. Myrtia Berrett of Neillsville (Clark Co., Wis.), became the bride of Arvin Wendt, son of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Wendt of Levis.

The couple was attended by the groom's brother and sister-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Frederick Wendt, as best man and matron of honor.

The bride wore a slate blue dress with wine accessories and wore a shoulder bouquet of white chrysanthemums.

Mrs. Wendt wore a grape wine colored dress with black accessories, and a shoulder bouquet of white chrysanthemums.

The men wore dark suits and boutonnieres of white carnations.

A reception was held at the home of the groom's parents, where 22 immediate relatives were entertained, the house decorations being in white. Later in the evening the bride and groom left on a wedding trip to Milwaukee, Waukegan and Zion, Ill.

The bride attended Greenwood High School and Wausau Business College, and after the completion of her course, she worked for a time at Minocqua. Later she came to Neillsville to work for Attorney F.D.
