Born to be a bride
Sydney Lawhon is a natural for the camera as she prepares for the fashion show held as part of this past weekend's Wharton County Bridal Expo. Held at the civic center, the event showcased wedding-related products and included an elaborate fashion show that had young and old alike dressing up in the latest wedding-day fashions. Lawhon wore an outfit sponsored by Cameo Rose of Bay City. For more images from the expo, see Page A7.
