From the Providence Sunday Journal, September 2, 1962:
The wedding of Miss Lucille Simmone Champagne, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Henry A. Champagne
of 533 Harris Heights, Warren, and Raymond Andrade, son of Mr. and Mrs. Manuel Andrade of
2039 Pleasant St., Fall River, was solemnized yesteray in St. Jean Baptiste Church,
Warren.
The Rev. Henri Robitaille, the assistant pastor, performed the 9 am ceremony and was
celebrant of the nuptial Mass. A reception in The Castle Restaurant, Bristol, was held
after the church ceremony.
Miss Cynthia Pearson of Pawtucket was maid of honor and Mrs. Mariam Champagne of Pawtucket
and Miss Madeline Andrade of Fall River were bridesmaids.
Paul Audette of Fall River was best man and Arthur P. Champagne of Pawtucket and Bernard
Iodice of Fall River were ushers.
Given in marriage by her father, the bride wore an ivory bouquet gown with a sabrina
neckline and kabuki sleeves. Alencon lace appliques accented the empire bodice and skirt
which ended in a chapel train. She also wore a bouffant veil of French silk illusion
which fell from an open crown pillbox with seed pearls.
After a wedding trip to the Pocono Mountains in Pennsylvania, the couple will reside at 28
Hall St., Fall River.
