Barbara Jean Frisch, Mr. Gasparini Married

The First Baptist Church of South Miami was the setting for the Saturday, June 3, wedding of Mr. and Mrs. Raymond T. Gasparini. The couple pledged their vows at 7 p.m. in a candlelight double ring ceremony, with the Rev. Forrest H. Watkins officiating. The bride, the former Barbara Jean Frisch, is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. A. C. Frisch of 3670 SW 12th St. The groom is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Fretterd of 3030 SW 106th Ave. Given in marriage by her father, the bride wore a floor-length gown of pure silk white taffeta. The fitted bodice had an open neckline and long pointed-at-hand sleeves. The full bouffant skirt had an elegant bow in back which gave a bustle effect to the chapel train. The bride's four attendants wore identical gowns of Celeste blue, with fitted bodice, full organza skirts, with back interest of tiered ruffles. Their matching bow band hats held tiny veils, and they carried yellow carnations and pom poms. They were Connie Massey, cousin of the bride, honor maid, and bridesmaids: Mrs. Jackie George, Mrs. Barbara Woodall and Miss Nancy True. Patricia and Pamela Harger, were flower girls. Their frocks were yellow and white organdy. Bobby Woodall was ring bearer. Robert Silverman was best man. Ushers were Jack Judee, Don Fleming, Charles Albright, Doug Cooper and Freddy Frisch. The reception followed in the church hall. The bride's mother was in a lavender silk woven sheath dress with matching accessories, for the wedding, and the mother of the groom wore a two-piece champagne lace dress with matching green accessories, and both matrons wore white orchids. The bride carried her mother's handkerchief which was made from her own wedding gown 26 years ago. The bride is a graduate of Coral Gables High School, and the groom graduated at Miami High School. Mrs. Raymond Gasparini

Neil Wyrick officiated at the 1 p.m. double ring ceremony and the reception followed at the home of the bride's parents. Given in marriage by her father, the bride wore a full length sheath gown of white peau de soie with Sabrina neck line, short sleeves. Back interest was detailed with lace applique on the bouffant panel that swept to a regal train. Her silk illusion veil fell from a crown of pearls and she carried a nosegay of white roses, centered with a white orchid. The brides' two attendants, Mrs. Harold Bagley of Homestead, as matron of honor, and Diane Trueblood, bridesmaid, wore sheath organza dresses with lace overskirts; pink for the matron, blue for the maid. Jack D. Harris was best man and ushers were Michael P. Funk, brother of the bride, and the bridegroom's son, Elwood B. Trueblood III. Mrs. Littleton C. Hudgins, sister of the groom, and Mr. Hudgins, of Virginia Beach were among the out of town guests at the wedding.
