MARRIAGE LAST EVENING.
Mr. A. Frickhoeffer And Miss Mary Hendrix Made One.—A Beautiful Home Wedding.
Beautiful in simplicity was the marriage of yesterday evening on West Corbin street at the home of the bride, when Mr. Arthur Frickhoeffer, of Birmingham, Ala., led to the hymeneal altar Miss Mary Hendrix, the beautiful and charming daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John M. Hendrix.
The house was beautifully decorated throughout with palms, ferns and cut flowers. In the parlor, where the impressive Lutheran ceremony was spoken by the pastor of the bride, the color scheme, green and white, was effectively carried out by the festooning of ivy to an improvised altar, banked with ferns and among which was the soft and scintillating glow of the candles in crystal candelabras.
Just before the ceremony, Miss Hallman, teacher of piano at Lenoir College, Hickory, N. C., played Humoresque by Dvorak, after which Miss Summerow of Charlotte, gowned in a cream messaline and lace, sung in a rich soprano voice, “Heart of My Heart,” and “I Love You Truly.”
To the strains of Mendelssohn’s wedding march, as a processional, the bridal party entered. Misses Margaret Crowell and Ruth Misenheimer, attractively attired in white lingerie dresses, held the ribbons that led the way to the altar, where the happy lovers plighted their troth.
Miss Margaret Hendrix, the maid of honor and sister of the bride, looked beautiful in a dress of pink satin, cream chiffon and carrying Killarney roses.
The groom, with his best man, Mr. Harry Frickhoeffer, looked supremely happy when he met his bride, a vision of beauty and loveliness, dressed in white lingerie, carrying a bouquet of sweet peas, bride’s roses and lilies of the valley and her only ornament, a necklace of pearls, the gift of the groom.
The bride is not only beautiful in person, but is admired for that beauty of character that has won for her a large circle of friends among all classes who wish her a happy and prosperous journey through life. The out of town guests were: Mr. Hendrix and Mr. Simmons of Walhalla, S. C.; Miss Summerow, Charlotte; Mr. Harry Frickhoeffer, Birmingham; Miss Hallman, Spartanburg, S. C.; and Mr. E. E. Hendrix, Pompano, S. C.
