A Wedding Treasure

My paternal grandparents were married on 1 June 1946.  I had seen their wedding picture, but knew very few details about their wedding.  Going through some of the things I found at my grandparents' home, I was lucky enough to find an invitation to their wedding.

The invitation is very simple, but now I know they were married at the Brandywine Methodist Church in Wilmington, Delaware at 4:00 in the afternoon.

I am so thankful that my grandmother saved this wedding invitation and I am looking forward to finding more details about their wedding.
