Women's Column BY MARY GUEST THOSE WEDDING WR1TE-UPS Bill (Out On a Limb) Smiley doesn't like wedding write- ups. jzle said so, in his column last week. He doesn't think it important to record whether the bride wore Chantilly lace or slipper satin. Nor is he concerned with the news that the bridesmaid's appliqued mittens matched her crystalette gown. Every time he has to write a wedding account, says Bill, he gets all tangled up with bouffant taffeta peau de soie peter pan collars and what have you. According to mt-web�-.be---te- about the bride and bridegroom; and their respective families. riian'ss.VOIrd---getieice—rira—yTleB111 But he would never get support for it from the women folk. Especially the bride and her mother. For one thing, the wedding day is probably the only time in her life that the girl will have her' dress described as she wants it. Many years ago, there was a charming cuslom of mentioning in detail what young ladies at fashionable balls wore—down to the last rhinestone buckle on her slipper. Description of a wedding gown is the last survival of that Stistom. Again, the wedding day is the bride's day. So why drag in her relatives? Some of them she'd be lust asettappy to forget; the others she cannot single out Mr special attention lest there be a family row to mar the festivities. To add all those little touches which Bill thinks would be interesting would mean that the writer would have to be present °at such events, to interview at least half a dozen persons on each side of the family tree. The bride and her bridesmaid would never furnish anything but -the most lauda- tory stuff—all of which would be dull reading too. It is a chore to write wedding accounts with all the trimmings. But believe it or not, those write-ups are read widely. It matters, not only to the -bride but to everybody who knows her, whether she carried a crescent of gardenias and ivy, or a shower of Butterfly roses. It's important to dozens of readers, whether her veil of tulle illdsion was caught do' lier-headWith' a tiara of pearls or a Juliet cap of small" flowers. The story is told of a -Western Canada editor who decided to cut out frills. Wedding accounts in his paper mit something like this: "Jane Jones and Harry Murphy got hitched by Rev. George Cross yesterday. No pie, no cake, nobody's business." His paper is no longer published.
