Her sister, as matron of honor, Mrs. Henry Didama Smith, wore a gown of yellow tulle over yellow taffeta.  Long points of the taffeta hung from each side of the bodice and were finished with opalescent tassels.  Opalescent trimming on the square neck of the gown made a brilliant and beautiful finish.  Long sleeves of yellow tulle were loosely banded with yellow taffeta at the wrists.  Her leghorn hat was wreathed with daisies and a large yellow tulle bow added a charming finish at the back.
