Janet Carol Melvin,
Charles Leo Francis
Are United in Marriage
Miss Janet Carol Melvin,
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ed
ward Graham Melvin, Jr., of
Knoxville, Tennessee, became the
bride of Mr. Charles Leo Francis,
son of Mr. and Mrs. Charles
Adrian Francis of Medford, New
Jersey, in a ceremony performed
by the Rev. Gordon A. Sterchi
November Ist at four o’clock in
the Fountain City United Meth
odist Church.
Mrs. John A. McTeer, organist,
rendered nuptial music and ac
companied Miss Linda Mountain,
soloist, who sang “The Love
Theme from Romeo and Juliet”
and “The Lord’s Prayer.”
Mr. Martin Wright of Cherry
Hill, New Jersey, was best man.
Ushers were Messrs. Don Vernine
and Nick Nichols, both of Knox
ville; and Stephen Rauch of Marl
ton, New Jersey, brother-in-law
of the groom.
Mrs. Robert Thurmer Smith of
Lake City, Tennessee was matron
of honor. Bridesmaids were Miss
Leigh Ann Melvin, sister of the
bride; Mrs. Hugh O. Dicks of De

Ann Strother, Chicago, Illinois.
They chose gowns of strawberry
Karate fashioned with long bish
op sleeves and Venice lace trim.
A band of matching velvet en
circled the Empire waistline and
their headpieces were velvet
opened crowns with floor-length
veils of strawberry illus on. They
carried baskets of pink carnations
and ivy.
The bride, given in marriage by
her father, was radiantly lovely
in an ivory floor-length gown of
English net and re-embroidered
Alencon lace. Bishop sleeves of
silk organza and English net ac
cented the high Edwardian collar
and Empire bodice which were
encrusted with tiny hand-beaded
seed pearls. A built-in chapel
length train of silk-faced peau de
soie fell from a peau cummer
bund and bolero effect at the
Empire line. Her mantilla silk
illusion was bordered entirely in
re-embroidered Alencon lace. She
carried a cascade of Phalaenopsis
orchids, Stephanotis, and ivy.
A reception followed the cere
mony at Fountain City Lnited
Methodist Church. Miss Susan
King of Marietta, cousin of the
bride, kept the Bride’s Book.
Those assisting in serving were
Miss Joanne Sawyer, Mrs. David
