Lighted tapers and a floral archway formed the setting for the marriage on Saturday, Dec. 8, at 12 o'clock noon, of Miss Maxine Barbara Heinrich to Stanley Earl Smith.  The ceremony which took place at the home of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Max Heinrich, 23 Kirby street, Bainbridge [Chenango Co., NY] was performed by the Rev. Harry Brooks, pastor of the Bainbridge Methodist Church.  Mrs. Gary VanBuiten, of Guilford, played the organ as the guests arrived, and during the ceremony.  Her program of traditional wedding music included:  "O Promise Me," "I Love You Truly," the Bridal Chorus from "Lohengrin," "Ave Maria," Mendelssohn's "Wedding March" and "A Perfect Day."  The bride was given in marriage by her father.  She was gowned in sheer white satin en train.  The gown was made with long sleeves and a shirred bodice trimmed with lace.  Her fingertip tulle veil was attached to a lace cap edged with seed pearls.  The bridal bouquet was of white roses, with white satin streamers to which were attached small white roses.  Her only jewelry was a double strand of pearls, a gift of the bridegroom.  Miss Betty Belden, of Guilford, was the maid of honor and only attendant.  She was gowned in pink chiffon with a lace yoke, and blue satin ribbons extending the length of the gown.  Matching blue bows were attached to the puffed sleeves.  She wore a coronet of white roses and carried a bouquet of pink roses.  Mr. Smith, who is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Lewis M. Smith, also of Bainbridge, had as his best man his brother, Ronald Smith.  There were no ushers.  The bride's gift to her attendant was a compact.  The best man received a wallet as the gift from his brother.  Following the ceremony, nearly 40 guests attended a reception held at the Central Hotel in Bainbridge.  Mrs. Heinrich and Mrs. Smith appeared in black, the former in velvet and the latter in crepe.  Their corsages were of red roses.  The bride's table was centered with a three-tiered wedding cake, toped with a miniature bride and groom.  Lighted tapers and bouquets of baby chrysanthemums decorated the tables at which the guests were seated.  Mrs. Smith, whose parents were former residents of Guilford, attended Guilford Central School.  She was honored recently at a pre-nuptial shower given by Mrs. Robert M. Chesebro, of Guilford.  Mr. Smith, recently discharged from the United States Army, served as a corporal in the Pacific Theatre of War for two and a half years.  Following a brief wedding trip, to an unannounced destination, Mr. Smith and his bride will return to Bainbridge, after which they will leave shortly for Richmond, Va., where they will make their home.  For traveling, Mrs. Smith wore a royal blue velvet dress, fur jacket, a black hat and accessories and a purple orchid corsage.  [Bainbridge News & Republican, Dec. 13, 1945]
