The most current fashions for bride and groom were on parade recently at the Welcome Wagon bridal party held in Terrace. Prospective newly-weds were given a chance to plan their special events with the help of the local Welcome Wagon staff and Terrace merchants. Merchants meet marriages at Welcome Wagon bridal party — by Nancy Orr From north, south, east and west, prospective brides came to see the latest styles combined with age-old tradition at the bridal party on Saturday after- noon in the Dolly Varden Room of the Terrace Inn. Each bride was presented with a flower on arrival and strolled through the displays before set- tling down to watch a colourful parade of styles from the special dresses for family and friends to a variety of wedding gowns, cli- maxed by the complete formal wedding party. Door prizes were drawn and gifts distributed throughout the afternoon by the various spon- sors. . “The concept for this after- noon’s show,”’ said hostess Karen Farrell of Welcome Wagon, ‘‘is in the pioneer tradi- tion of sending a wagon full of helpful gifts to new arrivals in the community.” Surrounding the room were intriguing displays ranging from professional consultations on make-up by Mary Kay and hair- styles by Karlene of Images, to ideas for home decorating to Your Decor. There were travel plans for the honeymooners by First Choice Travel, photography by Murray Metcalfe, music by Dan’s Musical Varieties and treasured videos by Custom Video and in- vitations and stationery and even lists of ‘‘what to do” by Spee-Dee Printers and Wilkin- son Business Machines. And throughout the room were unique and colourful ideas and flower arrangements by Heather's Balloon Magic. A new business that had only opened the day before, Uniquely Yours, featured new and old ideas of decorating and ac- cessories centered by a magnifi- cent wedding cake custom made by Debbie Rauschenberger. Owners of this new boutique, Kelly Mattern and Lisa Stella, arranged the fashion show with the help of models Dorothy Jerke, Tammy Walker, Laura McKeown, Mary, David and Olga McNeice, Amy, Nathan and Edward Mattern, Russell Gutknecht, Howie O’Brien and Lawrence Stella. Throughout the afternoon, refreshments were offered by the Terrace Inn, and as the guests left, they were presented with colourful bags crowned with balloons and filled with gifts and ideas to take home.
