James Whitcomb Riley. Suggestions for Autumn Weddings. Aunt Mary Writes Helpfully of the decorations, the Ceremony, and the . Dress of Both Bride and Groom. A wedding in the country can be made most attractive at very little cost, whether in .the church or at home. - At this season of the year the,, glorious autumn leaves, golden rod, and asters can be had in pro fusion, and should be used lavishly in' the decoration. Branches of long leaf pine or small, prettily shaped cedars, placed in jardinieres or flow er pots filled with damp earth with green moss make almost as effective a decoration as pots of ferns or palms. Do not use many vines in decorating; though attractive when first , arranged, they are apt to wilt in a short time and so cease to be at tractive. Do not use cheap effects such as paper flowers and-evergreens sprinkled with flour or shining dusts of any kind. Potted plants of all kinds whether in leaf or flower are lovely for decoration arid a pretty ef fect; is sometimes obtained by plac ing the pot on its side; one gets a fuller view of the plant. If the churdh has a vestry-room, pastor's study or some similar room, the groom, with his best man, will enter the church' from that room at the first strains of the wedding march and await at the altar the coming of the bride amd her attend ants. - ' - ; There is no fixed and immovable rule for the arrangement of the bridal party, though the usual pro- cedure is as follows: JFlrst come the ushers, two by two,- next the brides maids in pairs, then the maid: of hon or, walking alone, : and lastly : the bride leaning on the arm ; of her father or some male relative, if her father be not living. When : the ushers reach the altar, dividing,: half go -to the right," the other half to the left, the bridesmaids "do likewise, passing In front of the ushers .and forming a portion of a circle near the altar. The maid of honor stands near to the brfde on her left and the best man stands near i to the groom on his right. When the bride, approaches the "altar, the groom steps forward to meet her, takes her . hand, and leads her to their place in front of-the officiating clergyman. The father stands a lit tle in the rear of the bride until the clergyman asks, "Who giveth this woman to be married to this man?" Then; he , steps forward, places his daughter's hand into that of the groom and . says, "I do." He then takes, his place in the front pew with his. wife or other immediate mem bers of the family. The maid of honor holds the bride's bouquet and glove during the ceremony, also lifts back the veil from the bride's face at the conclu sion i; of - the ceremony. The organ peals forth and the bride and groom, arm in arm, go down the aisle, fol lowed by the best man and maid of honor together,-then the ushers and bridesmaids, each arm in arm. The families of "the bride and groom leave, then a general dispersing. Nothing is ruder or in poorer taste than for those in the church to at tempt to leave the edifice before the wedding party. ! ? v .The selection of the bridal cos tume is a purely personal affair, though an all-white one is generally preferred, with or without a bridal veil. When no. veil is worn a white hat should take its place. Never have; the wedding-dress cut low in the" neck, as for a party dress. If for any reason : a collar be not de sired, the round, or Dutch neck as it is i called, is permissible. A white costume may be worn at a day or an evening wedding. Many brides prefer a traveling costume, or going away gown, as it is now called. The expense attending such a wedding is always less, though I doubt not that every girl pictures herself in white with the accompanying long, tulle veil.V The bride's-: bouquet should always be of white flowers, whatever her costume. . ; J - 'i - '- " At a day wedding," any time be fore six o'clock, the groom wears a frock coat, light gray.: trousers, white waistcoat, white or light gray, silk or satin ascot tie, patent leather Shoes, and a -silk hat of course, as that is the only hat fashion permits wlthf a frock coat, at a wedding or
