A 1919 Wedding

I recently found this description of a wedding that occurred in July 1919 in West Riverside. This description was found in the Riverside Daily Press.

Wedding Bells in West Riverside

Beautifully appointed and witnessed by about 40 intimate friends of the contracting parties, the wedding of Miss Elizabeth Ludy and Mr. William Grebler took place at the home of the bride’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Fred Ludy of West Riverside recently.

The marriage ceremony, which took place under a bower of feathery pepper branches studded with Shasta daisies and white carnations, was read by Rev. Achenbach of the German Lutheran church.

The bride was daintily gowned in white marquisette over white silk and carried a bouquet of sweet peas. The young couple was unattended.

Following the ceremony a dainty collation was served in the dining room. The center of the dining table was adorned with a huge wedding cake, a marvel of snowy white.

Later Mr. and Mrs. Grebler escaped in a waiting automobile and went to Los Angeles for a few days, from which they are planning to go to San Diego and enjoy the pleasures of the exposition for two weeks.
