With the memory
of this day always in her
heart, Elizabeth begins
the life of every bride —
making plans, meeting problems,
sharing great joys . . .
BY CYNTHIA MILLER
FROM THIS DAY FORWARD
Blond modern furniture predominates in the tworoom suite at the Bel Air Ho'tel, where Liz and Nicky Hilton will live after their honeymoon.
"/, Elizabeth Rosemond, take thee, Conrad Nicholson, for my lawful husband, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, until death do us part."
m May 6th, 1950. Father Concannon stands at the altar of the Church of the Good Shepherd in Beverly Hills. The afternoon sun comes through the stained-glass windows in shafts of light, and a sudden silence falls over the many guests as the bride and groom kneel.
Father Concannon looks at Elizabeth and Nicky before him, and begins the ceremony. "My dear iriends," he says, "you are about to enter into a union which is most sacred and most serious. It is most sacred, because it is established by God Himself; most serious, because it will bind you together for life in a relationship so close and so intimate, that it will profoundly influence your whole future. That future, with its hopes and disappointments, its successes and its failures, its pleasures and its pains, its joys and its sorrows, is' hidden from your eyes
"Truly, then, these words are most serious. It is a beautiful tribute to your undoubted faith in each other, that recognizing their full import, you are nevertheless so willing and ready to pronounce them. . . . Henceforth, you will belong entirely to each other: you will be one in mind, one in. heart, and one in affections. And whatever sacrifices you may hereafter be required to make to preserve this common life, always make them generously. Sacrifice is usually difficult and irksome. Only love can make it easy; and perfect love can make it a joy. . . ." (Continued on page 94)
