Miss Amanda Rominsky, A. Appel Wed 

At 4 o'clock on the afternoon of Wednesday, June 12, Miss Amanda Rominsky, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William Rominsky of Port Edwards, became the bride of Arno C. E. Appel, son of Mr. and Mrs. Gustave Appel, Wisconsin Rapids. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. E. G. Kuechle at the Immanuel Lutheran church which was decorated with mixed bouquets of garden flowers and ferns. 

Before the ceremony Mrs. George Cotterill sang, "O Promise Me" and "O Perfect Love", and G. C. Mader played the wedding march from Lohengrin. 

The bride wore a white satin floor length gown with a quilted bolero trimmed with tiny white velvet bows. Sleeves were short and the gown was completed within a white satin sash tied at the back. Her white net veil, caught in a headdress of tiny seed pearls and orange blossoms, ended in a long train. A white pearl necklace and a bouquet of white roses and sweet peas completed the bride's ensemble.

 Miss Lydia Rominsky, sister of the bride, and Miss Doris Appel, the groom's sister, attended the bride as maid of honor and bridesmaid. Miss Rominsky wore a floor length gown of aqua chiffon and Miss Appel wore a similar gown of a pink hue. Both carried bouquets of Talisman roses and sweetpeas, and wore floral tiaras.

Attending the groom were his brother Harold Appel and the bride's brother Ervin Rominsky.

The bride is a graduate of the high school at Butternut, and has been residing with her parents at Port Edwards. Mr. Appel graduated from Lincoln high school and is employed at Prentiss-Wabers Products company. The young couple will reside at 1450 First street north.

Immediately following the wedding a supper was served to sixty guests in the Recreation room of the Port Edwards school. Garden flowers decorated the tables. A reception at the home of the bride's parents followed the supper. 

Mr. and Mrs. Appel left that evening for northern Wisconsin, where they spent several days. For her traveling costume the bride chose a navy blue wool suit with matching accessories.
