A gown of sheerest marquisette and fine Chantilly lace was chosen by Peggy Peck for the ceremony on Thursday morning at which she became the bride of Edwin Henry Fisher. The Rev. Father Arthur D.

An enbankment of palms formed the background for glowing cathedral tapers standing at the side of the altar, and on the altar table were large arrangements of white grillie flowers and snapdragons. Similar arrangements marked the family pews.

Miss Peck was given in marriage by her fahter. Her gown was fashioned with a simple bodice and a high round neckline finished with a tiny turnover collar, and marking the deep yoke was a wide band of Chantilly lace. Bands of the lace also distinguished the long, very full sleeves, which were gathered to narrow bands at the wrists. Another deep insert of lace banded the hemline.

The bride wore a tiny Juliet cap of tulle, encrusted with rings of seed pearls, and from it fell the folds of her crisp, finger-tip-length veil. Miss Peck carried a velvet covered prayerbook topped by gardenias, and marking the pages was a shower of ribbons caught with tiny gardenias and apple blossoms.

Jean Stark was the bride's only attendant. Her gown of white organdy was fashioned with a high round neckline, bound with organdy and long, closely fitted sleeves. A note of color was added by an apron-effect appliqued in organdy in all the pastels on the front of white organdy hat and carried an arm bouquet of spring flowers in colors picking up thoses on her frock.

John Sweeny assisted Mr. Fisher as best man.

For her daughter's wedding Mrs. Peck chose a chartreuse and gray print frock, with a chartreuse hat, and a corsage of cymbidium orchids.

Immediately after the ceremony a breakfast was served at the Colony Town Club, where the members of the bridal party received the guests before a background of palms. On the bride's bowls of white sweet peas and single stock, and the guests tables were centered by crystal bowls filled with orchid, pink and white sweet peas.
