Its brilliant buttons matched the brilliant studded veil of her black shell hat. Black gloves and shoes completed her ensemble. Her corsage was of red roses. The maid of honor was attired in a pink faille redingote with which she wore black accessories and a corsage of white roses. The photographer's light can be seen on the upper right. |
