Camden— (Special) – Beautiful in its simplicity was the wedding of Miss Elizabeth Anne DeBruhl and Rev. Matthew Murdic Rabon which took place Tuesday evening, at six o’clock February 27 in the First Baptist church of Camden.
The Rev. Paul Webb and Rev. J. B. Caston, respective pastors of the bride and bridegroom, officiated, using the double ring ceremony, in the presence of a large assemblage of relatives and friends.
The church was very effectively decorated with floor baskets of white gladiolis and carnations, and small white candles. Tall palms, and white lighted candles in candelabra made a lovely background for the ceremony.
Mrs. F. N. McCorkle, organist, and Mrs. C.H. Stogner, vocalist, furnished the wedding music.
The usher-groomsmen were Dr. D. C. Hinson, C. H. Stogner, Charles Garnett, H. H. Mattox, Clyde Turbeville, and Paul Currie, all of Camden.
Miss Madeline Shealy, of Chapin and Columbia, classmate of the bride and Miss Marjorie Rabon of Cayce, sister of the bridegroom were bridesmaids.
Mrs. Thomas S. Dunbar, (Mildred Gardner) of Winnsboro and Charleston, a classmate of the bride was matron of honor.
The attractive auburn haired bride who was given in marriage by her father, G. B. DeBruhl, was never lovelier than in her wedding gown of bridal white satin featuring a fitted bodice, sweetheart neckline, longsleeves which ended in a point below the wrists and a low cut waist, on which was gathered the very full skirt of double net, extending into a lengthy train. Her beautiful finger tip veil face vogue, of bridal illusion, fell from a cap of white bridal satin and a coronet of gardenias. The bride carried a satin bound ritual, centered with a large white lily and shower with tiny ribbons and blossoms. The brides only ornament, a beautiful pink gold lily, centered with a tiny pearl and a gold chain was a gift of the bridegroom.
The Rev. Boyce Allen Davis, friend of the bridegroom and former pastor of both bride and bridegroom was the best man.
After the ceremony, the bride and bridegroom, with the bride’s parents received the congratulations of their friends at a reception held in the living room of the nurses home of the Camden hospital.
During the evening the bride and bridegroom left for a short honeymoon, after which they will make their home for the present, with Dr. and Mrs. C. P. Vincent, Jr., in Camden
