Elegant Nuptials Tie Patricia Pelter to Foster Lee
Miss Patricia Pelter, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ivan Pelter, married Lee Foster in a May ceremony at a church with white floral decor and seven branched candelabras. The bridal party included Barbara Bailey and Patricia Barner as maids of honor, plus several bridesmaids and ushers. After a reception for 200, the couple plans to reside in Miami Florida following a Bermuda trip. The bride, a Ludington High School and Lake Forest alum, is a secretary with United States Gypsum Co. in Chicago, while the groom, a University of Illinois graduate, is a sales engineer with the same company. A rehearsal dinner and pre-wedding events preceded the ceremony.
