Making their home in Alameda are Mr. and Mrs. Norman R. Waage, whose early September wedding took place in the Fruitvale Congregational Church with the Rev. R. C. Waddell conducting the afternoon service.

The bride is the former JoAnn Patricia Saulovich, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence M. Saulovich of Pearmain St.

Both young people are Castlemont High graduates, Norman subsequently attending California State Polytechnic College. He is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Ole K. Waage, at whose Lowry Road home the wedding reception took place.

A floor length bouffant gown of silk organza, with an embroidered overskirt, was worn by the bride, with a tiara of lace and seed pearls holding her elbow length veil. Her bouquet was a cascade of stephanotis centered with a white orchid.

An aqua gown, bouffant and ballerina length, was worn by her maid of honor, Carol Smith, her cousin.

Best man was the bridegroom's brother, Edward Waage, and serving as ushers were Ross Voreiss (sic) of San Pablo and David Froines of Richmond.

For her daughter's wedding and reception Mrs. Saulovich donned a sheath dress of blue lace, while the mother of the bridegroom was in pink lace, also a sheath style.
