Mitchell, Sheri (8 JUN 1974)

June 8, 1974 at 1:30 p.m. was the date chosen for a very beautiful and large wedding for Miss Sheri Mitchell and Tom Rohland, who were brought together in love and marriage by Father George Becker and by Rev. Douglas Groenewold.

Miss Sheri Mitchell is the daughter of Mrs. Laurie Mitchell of route 2, Withee (Clark Co., Wis.), and was given in marriage by her brother, Harry Mitchell III. Tom Rohland is the son of Mrs. Audrey Rohland of route 2, Withee.

For her wedding day, Mrs. Sheri Rohland chose a dress of full length white flocked polyester crepe with lace trim. Her gown was designed by herself. She wore a three tier shoulder length veil with a pearled crown, and her bouquet consisted of red and yellow roses, daisies, baby's breath and ivy.

Miss Lee Kenny of Round Lake, Illinois was chosen for maid of honor, and bridesmaids were Miss Sue Kaz, Owen, and Miss Patty Roland of Withee. Junior bridesmaid was Miss Diane Reb of Trevor, and the flower girl was Miss Jody Rohland of Withee.

Their dresses were also home designed and were made out of full length flocked crepe polysester. They carried baskets of tinted daisies surrounded by baby's breath and ivy.

Chosen for the best man was Dave Gay of Owen, with groomsmen Harry Mitchell, Withee and Michael Multhauf, Withee, and David Roland was a junior groomsman from Withee. The ring bearer was Duane Reb of Trevor. Ushers were Gay Mitchell and Scott Rohland, Withee. Music was rendered by Mrs. Louise Luedke of Withee and Melvin Rohland, Marshfield.

The bride attended Owen-Withee High School and is employed as a housewife. Her husband also attended Owen-Withee High School, and is employed with the James Hatlestad General Contractors.

A buffet dinner was served in the church basement at 3 o'clock, following the wedding, and a wedding dance at 8 p.m. at the American Legion Hall, Owen. The guests numbering about 500, came from Florida, Minnesota, Illinois, South Dakota and Wisconsin.

The newlyweds honeymooned at her grandfather's cabin on Lake Calipee in Canada. They will make their home in Withee.
