The altar of the Neillsville Methodist Chruch was graced with bouquets of white gladioli and pink carnations for the wedding Saturday uniting in marriage Miss Janice Ann Wendt of Milwaukee, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Alvin Wendt of Neillsville, and Ronald Hribar of Milwaukee, son of Mr. and Mrs. Ludwig Hribar of Greenwood.  The Rev.

The bride, entered the church with her father, who gave her in marriage, attired in a floor length bridal gown of nylon sheer over taffeta with Alencon lace appliqués accenting the bateau neckline. The Basque bodice was further highlighted by a fitted mid-riff. The bell-shaped skirt was accented with Alencon lace appliqués near the hemline and on the double Watteau train, with bow trim, which was attached to the back waistline. Her bouffant veil of silk illusion was secured to a pillbox headpiece, trimmed with seed pearls. She carried a bridal bouquet of red roses with green ivy and white bow trim.

 

Miss Edris Wendt was maid-of-honor for her sister. Bridesmaids were Miss Mary Reams of Kenosha and Miss Cheryl Opelt of Neillsville.  The attendants wore Sea spray green floor length formals, styled with lace bodices that featured bateau necklines.  Their sheath skirts were of chiffon over taffeta, styled with satin accented empire waistlines. The back of the bodices were completed by lace Watteau panels with bow trim.  They wore matching open crown pillbox headpieces to which their pouf veils were attached.  Pink roses and white chrysanthemums formed the attendants’ bouquets.

 

Tom Sondregger of Milwaukee was the bestman.  Groomsmen were John Wildish of Neillsville and Robert Hribar of Greenwood.  Ushers were Melvin Wendt of Neillsville and Joe Tolaney, Jr., of Milwaukee.  Ludwig Hribar, Jr., carried the rings on a white heart-shaped satin pillow.
