Miss Eleanor Brosnan, of this city,
and Mr. Paul Cosgrove, of Augusta,
which was solemnized Wednesday af
ternoon at fl o’clock at St. Theresa’s
Catholic Church. Father Richard
Hamilton officiating.
Because of the popularity of the
young couple, the bride being a na
tive Albanian, while the groom had
lived here for several months the
wedding was of unusual interest to
a host of friends and relatives, who
thronged the auditorium of the
church long before the hour of the
wedding arrival.
A color scheme of pink and white
was artistically carried out in the
decorations, both at the church and
at the Brosnan home, where a re
ception was held after the wedding.
The decorations at the church were
among the most beautiful and attrac
tive of any wedding ever witnessed
in Albany. The altar and sanctuary
was banked in palms and ferns, mak
ing a beautiful background to the
picture that was made when the wed
ding party entered. Suspended from
the sanctuary arch was a basket of
pink roses and ferns. From the bas
ket four garlands of smilax were
hung to 1 the four corners of the
church. Scores of wax tapers flick
ered amid tall vases of pink carna
tions about the altars, transferring
the sanctuary intQ a veritable fairy
land.
To the strains of Mendelssohn’*
