Zahn-Linn Wedding

Saturday evening, May 14, 1927, at the home of the bride's parents, North Main Street, Roberts, Illinois, Miss Florella Irene Zahn was united in marriage to Mr. Arnold J. Linn of Chicago.
Miss Luetta Mae Zahn of Ashland, cousin of the bride sang "I Love You Truly", then at the strains of Lohengrin's wedding march, played by Miss Louise Arnold of Evanston, cousin of the groom, the bridal couple entered the room.  They were attended by Miss. Arlene Tarvin of Roberts a cousin of the bride and Mr. A. G. Bergsteat of Chicago, a fraternal brother of the groom.  The bridal party stood before a bank of ferns and smilax while Rev. John T. Killip, pastor of the M. E. Church of Roberts, pronounced the mystic words which joined for life the happy couple.
Profusions of pink roses, sweet peas, lilies of the valley, orchids, and pink lights beautifully decorated the home. The bride was attired in orchid georgette with silver trimmings and corresponding accessories. She carried a bouquet of sweetheart roses and sweet peas.  The groom wore conventional blue.
After congratulations the guests assembled in the dining room where a four course dinner was served. The bride's table was decorated with sweet peas and smilax and the other tables with pink roses and smilax.
The bride and groom received many beautiful gifts of silver, cut glass, china and linen.
The bride and groom were both born at Roberts.  They both graduated from the Roberts High School in the class of 1920. The bride then attended the Wesleyan University at Bloomington from which she graduated in 1924. The groom graduated from the University of Illinois the same year.  She is a member of the Alpha Gamma Delta Sorority and he of the Theta Kappa Nu fraternity. After graduation she taught for two years in the Knoxville High School where she was successful.  Mr. Linn entered commercial life and is employed by The Melland Utilities of Chicago.
Mr. and Mrs. Linn left Saturday evening for a two weeks bridal trip. They will be at home to their many friends at 1865 Elmwood Avenue, Wilmette, Illinois, July 1st.

I googled 1865 Elmwood Avenue, Wilmette, Illinois.  Wonder if this was the home they moved to right after their marriage.
