Flower Girls for the Wilson-McAdoo Wedding

This photograph captures two flower girls dressed in their wedding ensembles with baskets of flowers for the wedding ceremony of Eleanor Wilson and William G. McAdoo (sometimes referred to as W. G. McAdoo). Eleanor Wilson, daughter of President Woodrow Wilson and First Lady Ellen Axson Wilson, married McAdoo, President Wilson's secretary of the Treasury, in the East Room of the White House on May 7, 1914. The flower girls were likely dressed in custom Kurzman dresses. It is believed that Kurzman created the gowns for Eleanors trousseau as well as the whole family.
