(Donaldsonville, La.) 1871-current, December 15, 1917, page 3 RICHARDSON -- BUQUOI Nuptials of Popular Young Couple Quietly Solemnized. A quiet wedding of the week was that of Miss Mildred Buquoi, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Buquoi, to Joel Gilmer Richardson, of High Point, N.C., which took place Wednesday afternoon at the home of the bride's parents, Rev. R.H. Prosser officiating. The bride was given in marriage by her father, and as they entered the room where the ceremony was performed Mendelssohn's wedding march was played very sweetly by Mrs. J.A. Ward, of Lucedale, Miss., a sister of the bride. An informal reception followed the nuptial rites, at which Mrs. Emile Buquoi, of Plaquemine, Mr. and Mrs. Edgar Fortier, Mrs. R. McCulloh, Miss Una LeBlanc, U.A. Rousseau, and members and employees of the firm of B. Lemann & Bro., Inc., were present. The bride is one of Donaldsonville's most popular and attractive girls, and is endowed in generous measure with talents and graces that render her well qualified to perform the new role in life she has assumed. The groom is a young man of worth and promise, and during the period of his residence in Donaldsonville has comported himself in such a manner as to win the highest respect and esteem of all who have the pleasure of knowing him. Mr. and Mrs. Richardson will make their home with the bride's parents in Mississippi street. The Chief joins their host of friends in extending them warmest congratulations upon their realization of love's sweet dream and hopes the passing years will bring them even greater happiness than is now their portion.
