She was attended by her sister Edna who wore a street-length dress of pink nylon organdy with white accessories. Her flowers were an arrangement similar to the bride's of pink roses and yellow daisies.

Phyllis Foster, niece of the bride, and Judith Binegar, niece of the groom acted as ring bearers in dresses of white dotted-swiss. They carried rings in bouquets of roses.

Mrs. Foster wore an aqua linen dress with brown accessories and a corsage of pink roses while Mrs. Binegar wore a flowered silk print dress with brown and white accessories and a rose corsage.
