A lovely January wedding was solemnized at Roseneath United Church on Saturday, January 17, 1953, when Myrna Maxine, youngest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Adams, became the bride of Clifford Robert Page, elder son of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph E. Page, Cobourg.

  The bride, given in marriage by her father, was radiant in a gown of ivory chantilly lace and net over satin. The bodice was strapless nylon net with lace bolero, with long sleeves tapering to points and collared neckline; bouffant skirt of scalloped lace and net with train. A pearl halo held the bride’s veil of nylon net with border of chantilly lace. She carried a cascade of red roses and hyacinths completed her costume.

  Miss Barbara Adams, sister of the bride, was bridesmaid gowned in shell pink nylon net and lace, with matching bolero and silver embroidery on the skirt. She wore matching headdress and mittens and carried pink roses and hyacinth. Judy Adams, niece of the bride, was flower girl in a ballerina dress maize nylon carrying a nosegay of yellow and white ‘mums. A nephew of the bride, John Darling, was ring bearer.
