St. Paul's church, decorated with palms and baskets of cut flowers, was the scene of a pretty wedding at 3 o'clock Saturday afternoon when Miss Elsie Schuetz of the town of Wausau and Fred Pagel of Buffalo Lake, Minn., were united in marriage. The service was read by the Rev. E. C. Grauer, pastor of the church and the double ring ceremony was used. The wedding marches were played by Mrs. Morris Miller and during the ceremony Frederick Freiberg Jr., sang, "O Promise Me" and "I Love You Truly." The bride who was given in marriage by her brother, Herbert Schuetz, chose for her bridal gown an ankle length model of ivory satin. With this she wore a long veil of tulle trimmed with lace, and caught in cap effect with rhinestones, seed pearls and orange blossom. She wore a necklace of pearls and crystals and carried a shower bouquet of roses, carnations and swansonias. Miss Irene Schuetz, sister of the bride, attended as maid of honor. She was gowned in yellow taffeta and carried pink carnations, snapdragons and Queen Anne lace flowers. The bridesmaid was Miss Mildred Schuetz, another sister, who wore an ankle length frock of apricot taffeta and carried a bouquet similar to that of the maid of honor. The bridegroom's attendants were his brothers, August and Edwin Pagel of Buffalo Lake, Minn. Mr. and Mrs. Carl Schuetz entertained at a reception later in the day at their home in the town of Wausau and at the dinner served at 6:30 o'clock covers were laid for thirty. Guests were immediate relatives. Streamers of yellow and white, lighted tapers, cut flowers and wedding bells were used in decorating the home. The guests from away were Mr. and Mrs. Erwin Pagel and children, Mr. and Mrs. Leonard Hakes and children, August and Edwin Pagel, Miss Evelyn Ahlbrecht, Albert Pagel, all of Buffalo Lake, Minn., and Miss Beatrice Robinson of Brownton, Minn. Mr. and Mrs. Pagel will live on a farm near Buffalo Lake and will be at home to friends after June 10.
