Rev. H A. Sperling of St. Peter's Lutheran church performed the ceremony in the presence of about 35 guests. The bride, who was given in marriage by her father, took her place beneath an arch of pink and white astern, as "Mendelssohn's Wedding March" was played by Mr. MacDonald of Toronto. She wore a simply made gown of white canton crepe trimmed with ribbon, and her veil of silk net was held in place by a wreath, of orange blossoms. Sunset roses were carried. She was attended by her sister, Miss Clara Roehrig, who wore A gray georgette crepe frock and gray hat trimmed with ostrich. She carried a bouquet of Ophelia roses. Mr. Ormand Powell of Guelph acted as best man. The rooms thruout the house were festooned with clusters of pink and white asters, making a charming setting for the pretty event.
