Couple now on honeymoon.

One of the prettiest events in the Jeffersontown social circles for some time was the 
wedding, Wednesday afternoon, of Miss Mariceta Robinson, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J.W. 
Robinson and Mr. Vincent Adams, son of Mr.  and Mrs. G.R. Adams, also of Jeffersontown.

This was solemnized at the Baptist Church which was beautifully decorated in potted plants 
and cut flowers in the color scheme of green and white and the pastor, Rev. L.T. Wright, 
pronounced the ceremony.

Preceding the ceremony Miss Martha Belle Jones sang "Truly I Do" and "Oh, Promise Me,"--Miss 
Dorothy Strain presiding at the piano.

The ushers, Messrs. Harold Holloway and Chester Bowles ere the first to enter the church, 
these were followed by the bridesmaids, Misses Elizabeth Ormsby and Dorothy Sprowl; after 
these came the maid of honor, Miss Virginia Wearren, and next was the diminutive flower 
girl, Miss Wilma Lee Henderman, dressed in dainty pink organdy and carrying a French basket 
of rose petals.

Finally, on the arm of her faher, came the girlish and charming bride, exquisite in a heavy 
white silk sleeveless model deeply shirred at waist, with pompons of self material adorning 
the corsage and with flounce of net which almost reached the floor.  Her long veil was 
adjusted with a bandeau of orange blossoms and she carried an arm bouquet of pink roses.

The bride was met at the chancel by the groom who entered with his best man, Mr. Edward 
Brooks of Louisville, and many were the eyes that were dimmed as the father's emotion became 
almost uncontrollable when he handed his first born into the care and keeping of another.

The dainty colored dresses of the bridesmaids and their large picture hats further enhanced 
the beauty of the scene.  Miss Sprowl wearing white point d'esprit over pink satin, Miss 
Ormsby the same material in blue over blue satin' while the maid of honor wore a model in 
white, all with hats and accessories to match their gowns and all carrying roses, the 
briesmaids' pink and Miss Wearren's yellow.

After the impressive ring ceremony and the pronouncing of the couple man and wife, the 
bridal party and immediate families were served ice cream and cake at the home of the bride. 
 Later in the afternoon Mr. and Mrs. Adams left for a ten days motor trip 
through...housekeeping in their own apartment in the groom's home.  

Mrs. Adams is the older daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Robinson, and one of the most charming 
members of the Jeffersontown's younger set.  She is a splendid pianist and also has been 
making her talent of some account, having a large class of pupils.

Mr. Adams is the second son of Mr. and Mrs. Adams and is a rising young business man of 
promise, holding a responsible position with W.W. Hite & Co. in Lousiville.

The good wishes of all of Jeffersontown is with this young couple as they start life's 
journey together.
