  Notes	From Santa Cruz Evening News, 28 Jun 1912 Miss Drennan Is Attractive Bride At one o'clock this afternoon Miss Dora Agnes Drennan, daughter of Mrs. Louise Drennan, gave her hand and heart into the keeping of Richard Bartlett Howard Collier of Berkeley at the old Drennan home on Church street, the beautiful ceremony being witnessed by the relatives and intimate friends of the couple, and performed by the Rev. J. B. Orr of the First Congregational church. The house had been exquisitely decorated to mark the very important occasion of the giving in marriage of one of Santa Cruz' most attractive and popular daughters. Honeysuckle and sweet peas, giving forth the sweetest odors of the garden, were to be seen everywhere -- the rooms were abloom with the exquisite many colored blossoms. The bride looked charming in a hand embroidered French marquise gown trimmed with real Irish lace. She was unaccompanied as was Mr. Collier. Following the ceremony, tables were spread on the lawn in front of the Drennan home, and sitting down under the trees the wedding party feasted on a delicious assortment of dainties. Congratulations were poured upon the newly married pair by the assembled guests. Mr. and Mrs. Collier will reside in Berkeley, Mr. Collier's business being in San Francisco where he manages a department for Holbrook, Merrill and Stetson. The gifts for tho bride and groom as displayed at the Drennan home this morning presented a very pretty sight. There were numerous pieces of cut glass and silverware, rugs and other house furnishings, and many attractive presents of all kinds, both ornamental and useful. The guests from the bay cities and other towns who attended the ceremony this afternoon were as follows: Mrs. Richard Henry Collier of Berkeley, mother of the groom; Mr. and Mrs. C. E. Bancroft, Mrs. H. H. Hobbs, Mrs. F. O. Ferris, Miss Fannie Pray, Mrs. Emily Bishop of Berkeley, and Mrs. Hazzard Gragg of San Luis Obispo [9]
