Young People Take Their Wedding Vows At Beautiful Service Before Altar of St. Michael’s Church
Charming in all its details was the wedding Sunday afternoon at 4 o’clock in St. Michael’s Episcopal church, when Miss Lydianna Dodge, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George L. Dodge, 414 South Vine street, became the bride of Frank Carl Boensch of Manhattan Beach.
Friends gathered for the marriage service read effectively by the Rev. D. Howard Dow, rector of St. Michael’s, enjoyed an interval of organ music with Kay Van Buren Fisher at the manuals. As the music softly modulated into the strains of the Wedding March from Lohengrin, Mr. Boensch, attended by George Hicks of Los Angeles as best man, joined the Rev. Mr. Dow at the flower-banked altar to await the approach of the bride.
Miss Dodge entered on the arm of her brother, George L. Dodge Jr., who had come from his duties with the Naval Seabees at Port Hueneme near Ventura, especially to give his sister in marriage.
The bride made a lovely picture in her graceful afternoon frock of white chiffon, with becoming little white lace hat and a great cluster of gardenias and white larkspur showered with white sweet peas. Her matron of honor, Mrs. Don Gautsche (Virginia Carlisle) was gowned in soft blue and carried pink roses circled with blue larkspur repeating the color motif of her flowered hat. Lynn Bush as usher completed the wedding party.
Following the exchange of vows, the new Mr. and Mrs. Boensch were complimented at a bridal reception in the home of a close family friend, Mrs.
the Merchant Marine, and Robert Dodge who is on the Boise, were unable to be present for their sister’s wedding. Nor could Mr. Boensch’s mother come from her Arizona home for the event. George Dodge however was granted a nine-day leave from his Seabee battalion and is spending the time here with his parents.
Mr. and Mrs. Boensch are establishing their home in Manhattan Beach near the former’s duties with North American Aircraft company. He is an alumnus of Arizona State Teachers’ college at Tempe, Ariz., and his bride studied at Fullerton junior college after her graduation from union high school.

After the interval of congratulations and good wishes, the newlyweds made a pretty ceremony of cutting the first slice from a tiered wedding cake which was arranged amidst the flowers and candles of a lace-spread table. Refreshments were served by the bride's sister-in-law, Mrs. William T. Dodge, and by her cousin, Mrs. Beulah Mae Cobb, here from Miami, Ariz., for the wedding.

Lt. John Ganahl Return With Northern Bride And Beautiful Wedding In F
Return to the Southland of Lt. charming bride, the former Miss Cath provided the climax to a romance with students at Stanford University.
The wedding was an event of Saturday morning, May 15 in St. John’s Cathedral, Fresno, where the large guest group included countless college friends of the young couple down from the Palo Alto campus for the function. Indeed it might almost be said to be a Stanford wedding, for the group of attendants for the young couple were almost all drawn from their college and Greek Letter groups.
Miss Quinn, the daughter of the Joseph A. Quinns of Fresno, was a radiant young bride as she approached the altar on the arm of her father by whom she was given in marriage. Her formal gown of ivory slipper satin with its long fitted bodice and gracefully draped skirt, swept a long train beneath the sheer folds of her full-length tulle veil. She carried an ivory bound prayer book upon which rested white orchids with a shower of bouvardia.
The bevy of pretty girls in her bridal party was headed by her sister, Miss Avelline Quinn as honor maid, with the Misses Nancy Ganahl of this city, Mimi Koefod and Patricia Pierson as bridesmaids, all sister students at Stanford, and Miss Pierson an Alpha Phi sorority sister.
The attendants were gowned alike in apple-blossom pink marquisette and carried lace-frilled colonial bouquets of gardenias and sweet peas, pink for the bridesmaids and mauve and orchid tones for the maid of honor.
Lt. Ganahl and his best man, Langdon Hilleary of this city a Sigma Nu fraternity brother, waited at the flower-banked altar with the Rev. Fr. L. H. Lewis, who conducted the nuptial mass. Lt. Ganahl’s attendants included also Bradley Quinn, brother of the bride; Frederick Weisel of this city, and Lt. Floyd Anderson as usher.
