#
1914 , Canada
#
The Talmadge home at Talmage was the scene on Wednesday, August 12, of a rather unusual ceremony in the form of a double wedding, involving but two families. Miss Florence Talmadge being united in matrimony with Mr Ed. Stoffel, while Mr. Clay Talmadge and Miss Mabel Stoffel were made at the same time man and wife.
Miss Edna Stoffel played the wedding march as the first couple Mr. Ed. Stoffel and Miss Florence Talmadge were preceded into the room by a little niece of the groom as flower girl, and youngest brother of the bride as ring boy.
The bride carried roses and looked very charming in a gown of cream satin with its rich lace tunic falling to the knees.
When Rev J.H. Hadley, the officiating minister, had performed the ceremony which made them husdand and wife, Mr. and Mrs. Stoffel stepped aside, and Mr. Clay Talmadge and Miss Mable Stoffel took their place at the marriage altar. Miss Stoffel carried white carnations and wore pearl gray messaline.
To the sweet strains of "The Vote that breathed O'er Eden", they pledged their vows and the guests were soon showing upon the four, their hearty congratulations.
After the ceremony the contracting parties and guests partook of a delightfully served wedding dinner.
The happy young couples remain on their farms in the vicinity of Talmage.
