The bride was given in marriage by her brother, Harvey Cook, during rites for which nuptial music was provided by Mrs. Carol Talley, musician and Mrs. Karin Hansen, soloist.

The reception, dinner and dance were at SouthEdge Lounge here. After a week's Texas honeymoon, the Nesses will live at 2904 Northway Drive in Brooklyn Center Minnesota, where the bridegroom has been living.
