Preceding the entrance of them and their attendants Mrs. Brown sang "I Love You!" accompanied by Mrs. J. Nye Ryman on the organ after which, without pause, she began the ever popular wedding march "Lohengrin" to which strains the wedding procession began. The two ushers, Messrs. Arthur and Ned Culver, brothers of the bride led the way--one up the right, the other up the left aisle. Closely following were the best man, Mr. Eric Culver, another brother, and maid of honor, Miss Lucile Pannill; the groomsman, Mr. Stanley Rugeley and bridesmaid, Miss Winnie Williams, were next in line. Then the two matrons of honor; Mesdames Drachenberg and Kneisley with Mr. Drachenberg and Mr. Kneisley, all the male attendants marching up the right aisle, the women the left and meeting at the altar, the minister having taken his place when the ushers advanced. The ring bearer, Master Oscar Rucks Moberly, in white bearing a lovely Easter lily containing the two rings passed up the aisle and took his place as did the little flower girl, Gene Lawson dressed in pink organdie strewing rose leaves as she came. Lastly was the groom advancing from the right aisle and the bride in the left aisle with her father, he immediately giving her away as they faced the minister, then as the happy couple took their places, the impressive double ring ceremony began that joined the two lives "until death us do part." The bride was at her best in her handsome going away suit of blue Poiret Twill with accessories and an exquisite corsage of pink rose buds. Misses Pannill and Williams and Mesdames Drachenberg and Kneisley were becomingly gowned for the event each carrying arm bouquets of sweet peas in pastel shades, and the men were all in the usual dark suites. Mrs. Culver, the bride's mother looked well groomed in her brown Canton Crepe and Mrs. Mecklenberg, mother of the groom, looked equally as well in her brown crepe de chine. The girl hood friends of the bride spent the morning making the interior of the Church beautiful with potted ferns, roses and evergreens and shaded all the lights which shed a subdued crimson glow over all. Before the rostrum was a large arch of feathery ferns under which the couple stood during the ceremony. As soon as the marriage rites were over the whole bridal party, relatives and close friends repaired to the home of Mr. and Mrs. G. B. Culver where a reception was held and where they all registered in the wedding journal. At two a. m. the "Newly-weds" took their departure for Houston and Galveston for a brief honey moon trip after which they will take up their residence at Gulf, their home being set in order during their absence. Mrs. Mecklenberg is the only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. G. B. Culver, pioneers of Matagorda, and is a very popular and accomplished young woman. She is beloved by all who have known her from baby hood and beside, has a large circle of warm friends she has made as she "traveled along" in her merry, sunshiney way. "Miukey" as he is affectionately called by his many friends, is the son of Mr. Louise? Mecklenberg. He was born and reared in Sealy but for the past three years has been employed by the Gulf Sulphur Company.
Soon after moving here he
began to mingle with Matagorda's young set from which he chose his life
mate and it is with affection their many friends bid them bon voyage on
the matrimonial sea.

John Sloan in the presence of relatives and a few most intimate friends. The handsome interior of the home, artistically embellished with a dainty bridal motif in pink and white, carried out in a profusion of pink and white carnations, sweet peas, ferns and palms, formed a lovely setting for the event. The cheerful glow from the broad fireplaces gave an additional touch of beauty to the scene, and in the dining room were displayed the many beautiful gifts. The dining room table, overlaid with handsome embroidered cloth, held an exquisite apern of Bohemian cut glass, filled with mints and confections, and the mantels were banked with ferns and palms. The ceremony was performed in the parlor before a graceful embankment of palms and ferns. The lovely melody of Lohengrin’s Bridal Chorus, played by Miss Marguerite Hamilton, heralded the approach of the bridal party. The groom and his best man, Mr. Rowland Rugeley, uncle of the bride, entered first, and awaited the bride, who entered on the arm of her uncle and guardian, Mr. Henry Rugeley, who gave her away. The bridal toilette was an exquisite creation of white embroidered tulle over pale green satin, pink rosebuds extending down the front and around the skirt, made in quaint empire mode, the bride never looking more sweet and girlish than on this occasion. An antique pearl necklace was the only ornament worn, and she carried an arm cluster of American Beauty roses.
