Marriage Notes for Rice Riley Miner and Edith Blanche BURNHAM

Society Column of Detroit, Michigan Newspaper:

The social event of the past week was the wedding of Miss Edith Blanch Burnham, eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. K. Burnham, and Mr. Rice R. Miner, at the residence of the bride's parents, 84 Alfred Street, last Tuesday evening.  The floral decorations were some of the most beautiful seen this season, one special kind of flower being devoted to each room.  The drawing room was adorned with varieties of roses, the parlor with goldenrod and autumn vines, the library with asters, the dining room with nasturtiums, and the veranda, which had been covered and converted into a promenade, with tropical plants.  In the archways hung baskets of trailing vines, and between the drawing-room and parlor, long tendrils of vines were looped back in the form of drapery.  At the end of the drawing room, where the ceremony was performed, was a profusion of tropical plants, above which was suspended a floral monogram of the bride and groom.  Many of the set designs in flowers were sent in by friends, one of the most beautiful being a gilt wicker hamper with cover partly raised, and revealing a profusion of roses of different colors.  To the inspiring strains of Meldelasohn's wedding march, the two ushers, Mr. Veitsch of Chicago and Mr. Fred Joy of Detroit, entered bearing the white ribbon, followed by the groom and his best man, Mr. Harry Shelden.  Next came the bride on her father's arm, the family making their places on one side of the bridal party.  After the ceremony, which was performed by the Rev. William H. Davis of the First Congregational church, assisted by the Rev. Wallace Radcliffe of the First Street presbyterian church, the wedding march from Lohengrin, played by Spiel's orchestra, followed and the happy couple received the congratulations of their friends.  [next dress descriptions, present list, wedding tour] . . . will reside in Kansas City and [list of guests].
