Among Our Exchanges
From Atlanta Journal.
At the beautiful old colonial home of the bride's parents on Prince avenue, in 
Athens, the wedding of Miss Montine Shackelford, of that city, and Mr. Charles 
Albert Ver Nooy, of Atlanta, took place at noon Nov. 23d. The ceremony was 
performed by Rev. Dr. Walden, of the Presbyterian church of Athens. The bride 
wore an elegant suit of brown cloth with embroidery about the neck and on the 
cuffs. The blouse was of white silk and at the throat glistened a diamond 
broach, the gift of the groom. The toque of brown velvet and a large boquet 
(sic) of bride roses completed the costume. The bride entered the drawing room 
with her brother, Mr. Frank Shackelford, and was met at the improvised alter of 
greens by the groom and his best man, Dr. M. Z. Crist, of Atlanta. After the 
ceremony a course luncheon was served, the bride and groom leaving soon after 
for a trip to Washington, New York and other points north. The decorations of 
the pretty home consisted of smilax, palms, ferns and bowls of La France roses. 
The bride is the only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles William Shackelford, of 
Athens, and by her intellectual charm and sweet womanly traits has endeared 
herself to a large circle of friends who are loath to give her up to a new home. 
Mr. Ver Nooy is recognized as one of the most successful business men of 
Atlanta. He has made his home here for a number of years, coming south from New 
York. Mr. and Ver Nooy (sic) will be at home after December 15th at 201 
Peachtree street.

. . .The marriage of Miss Montine Shackelford to Mr. Charles Ver Nooy, which 
occurred on last Wednesday afternoon, is of unusal (sic) interest to many, both 
in Jackson and Clarke counties, since the bride lived all her life in these two 
counties. The two were made one in a beautiful ceremony, by Dr. J. W. Walden, 
pastor of the Presbyterian church. The bride was beautifully attired in a 
traveling dress of soft brown material, with hat to match, and carried in her 
hand a magnificent boquet (sic) of bride's roses. The parlors were tastefully 
decorated with smilax and other evergreen; and waxen tapers shed a radiant glow 
over the lovely scene. Delicious refreshments were served after the ceremony had 
been performed, and then occurred the only thing to mar the pleasure of the 
occasion. The beautiful young bride bade adieu to her father and mother, and 
brothers and sisters, and friends and the home of her childhood, to make new 
friends in a new home.
