The Wedding of Dr. Farid Flaihan and Miss Rida Nasr

زواج الدكتور فريد فليحان والآنسة رضى نصر

• In the Evangelical Church of Beirut, on Saturday, June 12, the wedding ceremony of Miss Rida Nasr to Dr. Farid Flaihan was performed; the church was adorned with baskets of roses and carnations, and the sanctuary with pure, fragrant gardenias.

The bride, in her marvelous Parisian gown, looked like an enchanting princess, and her bridesmaids, in their sheer, brilliant dresses, like houris of paradise.

After the ceremony a charming reception was held at the Alumni Club, gathering no fewer than six hundred persons, who danced and made merry to the strains of music, the young bridal pair at their head; and they all ate of the great white wedding cake and drank glasses of champagne in abundance...

To the bride and groom go The Woman's Voice's loveliest congratulations and its wishes for a new life over which happiness hovers, its air untroubled by anything save the squalling of children!!
