BOUDREAUX -- TRAHAN

Dr. L. M. Boudreaux and Miss Lydia Trahan United in Marriage. 

Dr. L. M. Boudreaux and Miss Lydia Black Trahan, of this city, were married 
Wednesday evening, Nov. 26, in the St. Ann's Catholic Church, in the presence of 
many relatives, friends and acquaintances.

Beautiful white Chrysanthemums, ferns and tulle adorned the chancel rail. Potted 
ferns and palms were artistically placed about the church altar.

The bridal party came in to the march from "Mendelsons" and was led by the 
ushers, Messrs. Robert J. Boudreaux, of Erath; A. M. Smith, of Kaplan; Clay 
Summers and Theophile Boudoin.

The six bridesmaids entered singly. Miss Maggie Broussard wore a beautiful gown 
of green charmeuse trimmed in pink roses and pearls; Miss Edez Boudreaux was 
handsomely gowned in pink charmeuse and Chiffon; Miss Lizzie Nettles wore a blue 
charmeuse trimmed in real lace; Miss Pearl Guidry, of Carencro, wore a beautiful 
hand-embroidered lavander charmeuse; Miss Maude LeBlanc wore a yellow charmeuse 
trimmed in chiffon and brocaded charmeuse, and the maid of honor, Miss Ruth 
Trousdale, of Monroe, was gowned in green charmeuse, trimmed in pearls and 
chiffon. They each carried a shower bouquet of Chrysanthemums and ferns, tied 
with flowing ribbons to match their gown. They wore maline and ostrich tips in 
their hair.

Following the bridemaids were the flower girls, little Misses Josephine Eldredge 
and Blanche Bailey, who wore dainty white frocks and carried "Marie-Antionette" 
baskets, filled with white roses tied with streamers of white tulle.

The ring bearer, Master William Miller, wore a suit of white broadcloth.

The bride entered on the arm of her father, Mr. Desire Trahan. She wore a gown 
of white charmeuse, trimmed with point d'alencon, having the draperies caught 
with pearl tassels. Her veil was artistically draped over a cap of real lace, 
which was held in place with orange blossoms. She carried a French bouquet of 
white Chrysanthemums and ferns.

The bridemaids were met at the chancel rail by the groomsmen, Messrs. Fred 
Breaux, of New Orleans; Simon LeBlanc, Rene Trahan, of New Orleans; Frank 
Summers and E. J. LeBlanc. As they neared the altar the bride - grrom, with his 
best man, Dr. J. G. Sanders, of New Orleans, met the bride and her father.

The ceremony was performed by Rev. Father F. A. B. Laforest.

While the marriage certificate was being signed, Mrs. A. J. Thomas sang, very 
beautifully, "O, Promise Me."

There was a reception later at the home of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. 
Desire Trahan.

Dr. and Mrs. Boudreaux were the recipients of many beautiful and costly wedding 
presents.

The Progress joins their many friends in wishing them a long, happy and 
prosperous life.
