THE GOULD WEDDING DECORA- 

 TIONS. 



The general story of the Gould wed- 

 ding has by this time become familiar 

 to everybody. However it may interest 

 our florist readers to learn a little 

 more about the floral decorative work 

 —what was used and how used. Alex- 

 ander McConnell, who, as stated in our 

 notes at the time, had the contract for 

 the work, has kindly supplied us with 

 a few notes on the subject which we 

 gladly pass along for the benefit of our 

 readers. 



In the parlor, or "South Room," 

 groups of tall palms were arranged to 

 form a bower, under which the cere- 

 mony was performed. Interspersed 

 through this bower were longiflorum 

 lilies in profusion. The effect was very 

 beautiful — together with the white 

 satin "priedieu" and rail and the wed-

 aisle posts (each post decorated with a 

 bunch of white roses and white ribbon) 

 and broad white satin ribbon. 



Two broad mantels in this room were 

 banked and filled with lily of the val- 

 ley. Above these mantels, over mir- 

 rors there were arranged in loose, 

 graceful effect, American Beauty roses 

 in deep vases. The fireplaces were 

 banked with a fine variety of crotons. 

 This room was also decorated with 

 garlands of Asparagus plumosus, inter- 

 spersed with white roses, suspended in 

 the garlands. 



At the south end of the residence is 

 the "Sun Parlor." This was deco- 

 rated with Alabama smilax and groups 

 of growing orchids, fastened to the 

 walls. The hall was arranged with 

 Asparagus plumosus and American 

 Beauty roses; the library with vases of 

 white roses and Alabama smilax. The 

 art gallery was also decorated with 

 large vases of American Beauty roses 

 and the music room with pink Killar- 

 ney roses and Alabama smilax. The 

 buffet table had high vases of white 

 roses and garlands of Farleyense fern, 

 interspersed with white roses.
