POPULAR YOUNG COUPLE UNITED IN MATRIMONY
Miss Angela Buckley Becomes the Bride of Andrew Ahlers, Of Struble.

St. Joseph’s church in Struble was the scene of a pretty wedding ceremony
Tuesday morning, June 19, when Andrew Ahlers and Angela Buckley were united
in marriage. The nuptial mass was celebrated by Rev. Father J. B. Greteman,
the pastor, and was attended by a large number of relatives and friends.

The bride looked charming in her wedding gown of white taffeta, ankle
length, with veil of dainty lace entraine. She carried a bouquet of
carnations and bridal roses. The bridesmaid, Miss Julia Buckley, a sister
of the bride, was attired in a pretty costume of pink colored lace with
accessories to match and modish hat of white with large brim.

The bridegroom was attended by his brother, Joseph Ahlers. Eugene Frey,
nattily attired in page’s costume, a nephew of the bride was ringbearer.
Miss Eunice Nepp, a niece of the bride, dressed in pale blue organdy, was
flower girl and scattered petals in front of the bride and groom as they
approached the altar.

Following the services at the church, a wedding breakfast was served at the
home of the bridegroom. Later in the day a wedding dinner was served at the
home of the bride to sixty relatives. Mgr. J. D. Fisch, of LeMars, and Rev.
J. B. Greteman were guests of honor.

The tables were beautifully decorated with summer flowers. A wedding cake,
adorned in white and pink, the bridal colors, graced the center of the
bride’s table.

In the evening the bridegroom and bride gave a dance to their friends at the
Whitewae.

The young couple left on a trip to the Black Hills.

On their return they will be at home to their friends on a farm near Remsen.
The young couple are residents of Struble vicinity and popular in a large
circle of friends and acquaintances.
