Miss Lynnette Lea Aden became the bride of Richard W. Sheffer in a 10 a.m. ceremony performed Saturday, August 10, at St. Mary’s Catholic Church, Neillsville, by the Rev. Joseph Henseler. Later, the couple greeted guests at a reception in the parish hall.

The bride, presented in marriage by her father, is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Donald R. Aden, Rt. 3 Neillsville. Mr. and Mrs. Walter D. Sheffer, Rt. 1 Humbird, are the groom’s parents.

The empire, A-line silhouette featured a scoop neckline, long, bishop sleeves and an attached chapel train. Her matching Camelot veil of nylon illusion was trimmed with lace.

Mrs. Kay Marshall was matron-of-honor, and bridesmaids were Mrs. Loni Paquette of Stoughton, sister of the bride, and Miss Darlene Larson of Augusta. They appeared in lavender knit halter dresses with multi-colored bolero jackets and lavender picture hats with matching trim. Their nosegays of lavender daisies and pompons.
