Rich – Siegel Nuptials – Wedding
After a long intermission the mellow tones of the wedding march were heard again at Montara, when on Friday, April 4, at high noon, Mr. Claude B. RICH of Moss Beach and Miss Hertha M. SIEGEL of Montara, pledged their troth in the parlors of the Montara Hotel.
The hotel had been beautifully decorated for the glad occasion. Golden and white flowers were artistically intertwined among evergreens, and in the center of the bay window canopy above the heads of the bridal party was suspended a large wedding bell of evergreens and California poppies.
As the last strains of Lohengrin’s Bridal Song, to which the bridal party had marched into the parlor died away, Rev. W.A. MITTMAN began to read the beautiful and impressive marriage service of the Evangelical church. In a clear voice the bride and groom replied to the vows of fidelity and love after which they were pronounced husband and wife.
The bride was handsomely attired in a beautiful gown of white hand-embroidered marquisette. Her veil of tulle was becomingly held in place by lilies of the valley. A large shower bouquet of the same dainty flowers completed her costume.
The bridal party was attended by Mr. Francis KINE of MOSS BEACH, who was best man, and Miss Dora RICH, the bridesmaid. Miss RICH was daintily dressed in white and pink and carried a large bouquet of pink roses.
After the congratulations to the happy pair, the thirty-one guests adjourned to the dining room, which was decorated in pink and white, and with a large and beautiful hanging center bouquet of ladies’ slippers and fleur de lis. The sumptuous wedding dinner which awaited the guests here had been prepared under the supervision of the grandmother of the bride, Mrs. Hertha SEMLER, and was thoroughly enjoyed by all.
Amid the showers of rice and good wishes the bridal pair departed immediately after the dinner for an extended honeymoon trip. On their return they will be at home to their many friends in their cozy and pretty cottage at Moss Beach.
