Miss Georgia D. Shivvers was married yesterday evening at 8 o'clock at the home of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Charles H. Shivvers, 1301 North Twenty-fifth street, to Dr. Ferdinand Griess of Sutton, Neb  Rev. W. W. Lawrence of the First Presbyterian church, read the marriage lines, before a company of about fifty guests. The wedding was a pretty home affair, the decorations being elaborate in quantities of palms and daisies. The bridal party stood in front of a bank of greenery, and the mantel, piano and many other places were beautifully covered with bunches of the white flowers.

The bride entered the parlor on the arm of her father, who gave her away. She was preceded by the little ring bearer, Avy Hilliard, who carried the ring in a lily. A daisy chain was carried by three little girls, Frances and Ileen Hilliard and Josephine Barrett. Miss Nina Warren played the wedding music, first the Lohengrin bridal chorus, then during the ceremony "To a Wild Rose," and afterwards the Mendelssohn Wedding March. Miss Shivvers wore a white dress wholly made from messaline ribbons and lace insertion. The dress was made with a train and a veil was worn which fell to the hem of the dress. She wore orange blossoms in the hair and carried a bouquet of daisies. The traveling dress was of tan French serge, with hat to match. In the dining room the refreshments were served by Miss Bess Lyman and Miss Alice Lyman, and punch was served by Miss Pauline Warren in the living room.

Dr. Griess is a graduate of the state university class of 1909, and is now connected with a bank of his home town. Miss Shivvers has made her home in Lincoln all her life.

Tuesday evening Mrs. D. W. Hilliard, 1305 North Twenty-fifth street, a sister of Miss Shivvers, gave a party to relatives and all who were to assist in the wedding festivities.
