Boston Traveler, Massachusetts, Monday, 24 May 1948
Bassett-Alexander
At a double ring ceremony at 5:30 yesterday afternoon in the North Congregational Church, Woburn, Millicent Redfield Bassett, daughter of the Rev. and Mrs. Elton Kennedy Bassett of Woburn, became the bride of Ian Thompson Alexander, son of Mr. and Mrs. John T. Alexander of Watertown. The bride?s father officiated at the wedding ceremony and also presented his daughter in marriage. A reception followed the ceremony it he church vestries.
The bride wore a full, hoop-skirted gown of candleglow taffeta made with a cathedral train and yoked neckline. Her full length veil of illusion was caught to a coronet of orange blossoms which her mother had worn and she carried a white Bible with an orchid and lilies of the valley. Her sister, Marguerite Kennedy Bassett, was her only attendant, gowned in apple-green tissue taffeta and carrying a cascade of yellow roses to match her coronet.
Donald R. Alexander was his brother?s best man and the ushers included Elton K. Bassett Jr., Carl Larrabee, Richard E. Layton, Robert C. Baker, Don N. Anderson, Theodore D?Orlando, and Walter T. Fay.
Following a wedding trip to New Hampshire, Mr. and Mrs. Alexander will make their home at 504 Watertown street, Newtonville.
