June Unchallenged as Favorite
Wedding Month of the Year
June again receives her crown as the favorite wedding month of th«
rear. The very first day found many young couples, marching down the
aisle to flower-banked altars to exchange their marriage vows. Every
day since then the bridal procession has continued. And when these
last few days of June have passed, many, many more attractive young
women will have been added to the roster of "June Brides.
Yesterday was a record breaker for Sunday marriages. In years
gone by, the Sabbath was not often selected as a day on which to be
married. Now any day seems de
sirable, with, of course, Saturday
the most popular of all.
