Micke, Karen E. (27 AUG 1966)

At Holy Rosary Catholic Church, Owen, Fr. H.L. Crubel read the nuptial mass which united Miss Karen E. Micke and Richard J. Bord in marriage, Saturday, August 27, 1966.

The bride is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Micke of route 1, Owen (Clark Co., Wis.), and the groom is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Louis J. Board of Wisconsin Rapids.

Approaching the altar the bride wore a floor length gown of organza and Alencon lace. The fitted bodice was trimmed with Alencon designed with an open neckline, and short sleeves. The bell shaped skirt with a panel was bordered with Alencon lace and complemented by a sweeping, chapel train, accented by a scatter pattern of lace motifs. The butterfly veil was held in place by a wide crown of Alencon lace and seed pearls. Her cascade bouquet was made up of white cymbidium orchids with stephanotis and ivy.

The bride's maid of honor was her sister, Miss Kristina Micke, with bridesmaids, Mrs. Klayon Micke, Owen, and Mrs. Thomas Smith, Wisconsin Rapids. Junior bridesmaid was Miss Bonnie Bord, sister of the groom, from Wisconsin Rapids. They were attired in yellow floor length gowns in sheer over taffeta. Their slightly raised bodice accented with multi-colored Venice lace were fashioned with square necklines and sheer full sleeves of wrist length. Their hair braid garden hats had a matching trim. They carried a fireside basket of purple asters and white and yellow pompons.

Attending the groom as best man was Thomas Smith of Wisconsin Rapids, and groomsmen were Clayton Micke of Owen and James Dunn of Wisconsin Rapids. Ushers were Robert Humke Jr. of Bloomington, Ind. And John Humke of Skokie, Ill.

Following the wedding a dinner was served in the dining room of Holy Rosary Catholic Church. A reception was held that evening at the Meadowview Country Club.
