of ivory peau de sole. The
.scooped neckline and elbow
length sleeves of the sculptur
ed bodice were embellished
with seed pearl flecked medal
lions of Alencon lace. A cas

lace, embroidered with seed
pearls, enhanced the controlled
fullness of the bell shaped
skirt’s front. Fullness of the
draped carriage back emerged
from a self fabric bow, center
ed with a fabric rose, to fall
into the graceful folds of a ca
thedral train. Her only orna
ment was a single strand of
matched pearls; and carried an
exquisite lace handkerchief, the
gift of members of Covington

quet was a cascade of phaelan
opsis orchids and stephanotis,
interspersed with puffs of white
maline.
Her train length veil of illu
sion and Brussells lace, framed
her hair in traditional bridal
drape, and featured lace me
i dallion inserts and edging. The
veil held additional sentiment

of yellow rosebuds and step
