The bride was escorted to the altar by her father. Her gown was designed with a molded bodice and full skirt, the bodice having a ruffled neckline and puffed sleeves. She carried a rose pointe lace belonging to her grandmother. Her veil was fastened with orange blossoms and she carried a prayer book bound in white satin.

Her maid of honor was her sister. Dorothy S. Gies, of New York City, who came home for the wedding and a vacation stay. Her frock was of pink net made with a shirred bodice and full skirt, and in her hair she wore a narrow wreath of pink rosebuds, harmonizing with the shaded pink gladioli which formed her arm bouquet.
