FORD - PUSKAR
At 8 o'clock on the morning of September 4 in St. Aloysius church, Columbus, Ohio,
Miss Margaret PUSKAR, formerly of Imperial [Pa], exchanged marriage vows with
Mr. Edwin FORD.
The bride wore a gown of white satin and Alencon lace. Tiny satin buttons
extended down the back below the waistline, the neck fell into a soft cowl, and the
long sleeves had a pointed band of lace at the elbow. A satin panel, which formed
the train of the gown, had wide insets of the lace ending in three large scallops.
A fingertip veil of bridal illusion was attached to a Juliet cap made of strips of
white satin, and caught at each side with clusters of orange blossoms. White
gladioli, centered with a corsage of gardenias, formed the fan-shaped bridal bouquet.
The bridesmade, Miss Alice FORD, and the junior bridesmaid, Miss Mary
PUSKAR, were in identical frocks of slipper satin in a copper shade, fashioned with long,
full skirts, tight bodices, and short puff sleeves. Their bouquets were of Talisman
roses, intermingled with tiny sprigs of delphinium. The haloes and the slippers
which they wore matched their gowns and their only jewelry was gold crosses and chains,
gifts from the bride.
Frank PUSKAR, brother of the bride, served as bestman for Mr. FORD. The ushers were
Paul Grimm, Robert GRIMM and Anthony TANKOVICH.
Following the ceremony a wedding breakfast was served at the Broadwin for the bridal
party and members of the immediate families. In the afternoon, the bride's uncle and aunt,
Mr. and Mrs. John J. PUSKAR, with whom she has made her home, were hosts at a
reception at their residence, 121 S. Burgess avenue, Columbus [Ohio].
The bride is a graduate of St. Joseph's academy and of the Mr. Carmel School of
Nursing. Mr. Ford was graduated from St. Mary's school and attended Ohio State
and Niagara universities [sic].
As the couple left for a honeymoon trip to northern Michigan, the bride wore
a three-piece suit of green wool with a brown fox collar and brown accessories.
Upon their return they will make their home at 108 S. Eureka avenue Columbus.
