LaROSS - MONTGOMERY Wedding
[ MONTGOMERY is the Groom. ]
The First United Presbyterian church was the scene of the beautiful wedding on Monday, September 18th at 4:30 o'clock in the afternoon when Miss Rosina Moorhead LAROSS became the bride of Lieut. James Mathrson MONTGOMERY of New York.
The church had been elaborately decorated in palms and ferns and a United States flag was draped upon the pulpit, over which a golden cord hung in a lover's knot. The music was furnished by Nirella's orchestra from Pittsburgh. Miss Rosanna LOCKHART, a school friend of the bride, sang "O Perfect Love" by Burleigh. As the wedding party entered the church the strains of the wedding march from Lohingrin guided them as Dr. W. D. IRONS, the officiating clergyman, entered from the study door, while Lieut. MONTGOMERY with his bestman, Dr. James FEILD of New York met him at the altar. Lieut. Com. J. B. HELM in full navy uniform led the wedding
procession. Mrs. Leonard Mark SANDSTON of Christchurch, New Zealand, a sister of the bride, was matron of honor and Miss Louise MONTGOMERY, sister of the groom, in turquoise velvet and Miss Lucile LAROSS, cousin of the bride, in yellow, acted as bridesmaids. All wore large black hats. Maragret
[sic] Virginia MOORHEAD, in pink canton crepe, a cousin of the bride, was the flower girl, and strew rose petals along the path of the bride. Melicent MOORHEAD, Jr. was the ring bearer.
The bride in white brodaded velvet with tulle veil caught with orange blossoms, carrying white roses and lilies of the valley, entered upon the arm of her father, Dr. William A. LAROSS. At the altar Dr. LAROSS gave his daughter to the groom. Dr. IRONS then performed the beautiful ring ceremony after which the naval officers formed an arch with swords under which the wedding party passed out. During the entire ceremony the orchestra played softly "O! Promise Me."
The ushers were Mr. Leonard Mark SANDSTON, brother-in-law of the bride and William A. LAROSS, Jr., a brother. A reception followed the ceremony, at which about fifty guests were in attendance. The house was beautifully decorated in flowers and ferns.
The bride and groom were conveyed by automobile to Pittsburgh from which place they left immediately for a trip in the Adirondacks. They expect to be gone a month, after which they will make their home in New York City.
