St. Lucas church, town of Sheboygan Falls, was the scene of an attractive wedding, when Miss Selma Fenner, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. August Fenner, Sheboygan Falls on route 1, became the bride of Hubert Van Engen, son of Mr. and Mrs. Gerhard Van Engen, Sheboygan Falls. The marriage service was read by the Rev. Otto Gamb at 7 p.m. on Saturday, August 25. Lohengrin and Mendelssohn's wedding marches were played by Mrs. Carl Mandel. Carl Mandel sang "the Twenty-third Psalm" during the service.

The bride wore a gown of white satin adorned with white trimmings. Her bouquet was composed of roses, lilies and babybreath.

The bridesmaids were the Misses Anita Hamann and Ella Kuhlow. Miss Hamann wore a dress of peach shade georgette and Miss Kuhlow's gown was of orchid shade georgette. Their flowers were roses, sweetpeas and swansonia.

Reinhold Fenner [bride's brother] and Henry Van Engen were the best men. Clara Harder, the little flower girl, wore a pretty frock.
