In Grace Methodist Church at 2 o'clock Sunday afternoon, the wedding of Miss Dorothy Lee Niswonger and Edward M. Grebing took place, Rev. P. A. Kasey performing vows of the double ring ceremony, spoken before the candle lighted altar. Organist for a prelude of nuptial melodies was Mrs. Norman Ueleke who also was accompanist for Mrs. June Mabrey as she sang "Because" and "The Lord's Prayer."

The bride, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ernest T. Niswonger, 513 North Fountain Street, walked to the altar on the arm of her father. She was gowned in white satin traditionally styled with a heart shaped neckline at which she wore the bridegroom's gift of pearls, long, fitted sleeves that tapered to points over the hand and a full, trained shirt. Her veil of imported lace fell to the finger tips from a tiara securing it and she carried a white Bible mounted with pink carnations. She was attended only by her sister, Mrs. Arnell Godwin of Jackson who wore blue complemented with a head adornment and her bouquet of gladioli.

Paul Seabaugh served as best man for the bridegroom who is a son of Mr. and Mrs. Oscar Grebing, 1530 New Madrid Street. Ushers were Leroy Heise and Lloyd Niswonger and Mrs. Lloyd Niswonger and Miss Marilyn Grebing lighted the altar tapers.

Floral prints fashioned the dresses worn by mothers of both the bride and groom, Mrs. Niswonger accenting her costume with a corsage of white carnations and Mrs. Grebing using yellow blossoms.
