Miss Janet Jones attended Miss Webber as maid of honor and Mr. William Payne served his son as best man. The bride wore a gown of white charmeuse trimmed in princess lace and pearls, made with a court train. Her veil, which has been worn at several of the Payne weddings, was artistically caught with orange blossoms, and she carried a shower bouquet of lilies of te valley and yellow orchids. Since yellow was the color chosen for the wedding the costumes of the attendants naturally carried out the color scheme. MIss Katherine Crocker, one of the bridesmaids, came first, wearing a satin gown of bright gold; next came Miss Dorothy Cody, another bridesmaid, dressed in white satin with a cream chantilly lace overdrape. MIss Jones followed, gowned in white crepe de chine. All three attendants carried shower bouquets of sunburst roses. Miss Elizabeth Webber, a younger sister of the bride, and her cousin, Joseph Glover, stretched the ribbons, and two other little cousins, Altie Miller and George Glover were flower children. The home was wonderfully decorated in yellow chrysanthemums and lilies of the valley.
