Ozarks Mts. Destination of Newlywed Pair

Plans to live in Burlington after a honeymoon in the Ozark mountains and through the southern states were announced by Mr. and Mrs. John P. Wiemer following their wedding at St. Alphonsus church at New Munster this morning. The bride, formerly Miss Lorena Katherine Richter of Brighton, exchanged vows with Mr. Wiemer at 9 o'clock mass performed by the Rev. Michaels.

St. Alphonsus choir sang the mass, with Miss Bernice Robers as soloist. The bride's parents are Mr. and Mrs. Frank Richter, and Mr. Wiemer's parents are Mr. and Mrs. Frank C. Wiemer of Burlington.

Ivory satin fashioned the gown worn by the bride, who carried a bouquet of white gardenias. The dress was made with a full skirt and train and a yoke of marquisette edged with a bertha Of lace. The fingertip veil was held by a crown of seed pearls.

Attending the bride was her sister, Shirley, in a pink gown of frost-printed satin made with cap sleeves. Her accessories included a head dress of matching plumes and elbow-length gloves, and she held orchid gladioli. Miss Evelyn Tenhagen, bridesmaid, was dressed similarly in blue, and she carried peach gladioli. Kathy Lois was flower girl in a long white dress, sweetheart bonnet and colonial bouquet.

Charles Wiemer, brother of the groom, was best man, and Ray Richter, brother of the bride, and Donald Pieters were ushers. Jerome Vos was groomsman.

Celebrating the nuptials, dinner was served the families at the Richter home, and a reception will be held there this evening. Their home after Sept. 23 will be at 727 Chestnut street, Burlington. He manages the Burlington Consumers Coop grocery store there.
