CARRIAGES. Carriages should be provided to
take the bride and her family to the church
and back to the house, and also the guests
from the church to the receptions.

the church, and later takes the married
couple to the house, and after the reception,
to the station.

CONGRATULATIONS. Congratulations may be
sent with letter of acceptance or declination
of an invitation to a wedding to those

congratulations may be sent to them also.
Guests in personal conversation with the
latter give best wishes to the bride and
congratulations to the groom.
