HILL-ARNOLD – WEDDINGS
[Welland Tribune October 22, 1943]
The parsonage of St Peter’s Lutheran church, Humberstone, was the setting for a quiet wedding ceremony yesterday afternoon when Muriel Esther, daughter of Mr. And Mrs. George Arnold, RR No. 1 Port Colborne, became the bride of PO Donald Gordon Hill, R.C.A.F., son of Adrian Hill of Steele street, Humberstone and the late Mrs. Hill. Rev. J.F. Schutt officiated.
The bride chose a lovely streetlength frock of turquoise wool made peplum style and featuring gold nailhead trimming. Her accessories were Battleship grey and she wore a gold heirloom bracelet which belonged to the groom’s late mother. A corsage of white carnations, white baby mums and gypsophila completed her ensemble.
Mrs. Lloyd Leslie, sister of the groom, as matron of honor, wore a navy blue crepe suit with blue and white checked taffeta trim, and navy accessories. Her corsage was pink carnations, white baby mums with gypsophila.
Lloyd Leslie was groomsman.
A reception for 25 guests was held at the home of the bride’s parents where Mrs. Arnold, the bride’s mother received in Queen’s blue crepe with corsage of brown and maroon baby mums. The bride’s table was centred with a four-tier wedding cake and decorated with vases of white and yellow mums.
Later the young couple left on a short wedding trip, the bride wearing a navy blue coat over her wedding ensemble.
The bride will reside on First street, Welland, while the groom will return to his station.
Out-Of-Town guests attended from Welland and Oakland, Calif.
