Daughter of Alfred E. Smith and Catherine Ann Dunn, wife of John Adams Warner, whom she married on June 5, 1926 in Albany, New York, and mother of Mary Adams (married William T. C. Huber) and Emily Smith Warner (married John P. Carey).
Marriage - Albany, N.Y., June 5 - With the blessing of Pope Pius XI, the marriage of Emily Josephine Smith, elder of Governer Alfred E. Smith's daughters, to Major John Adams Warner, commandant of the state constabulary, was solemnized by Patrick Cardinal Hayes in the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception today. The religious ceremony was most elaborate. Fifteen hundred guests witnessed the cathedral ceremony, and more than 1,000 attended the reception and breakfast. The scarlet, white and gold vestments of the clergy within the chancel, the brilliant uniforms of the military and naval officers present, and the gorgeous arrangement of flowers made the cathedral service one of extreme beauty, while the ancient liturgy of the Catholic church chanted by a choir from New York made the nuptial mass a ceremony both colorful and deeply impressive. Glynn, 5-year-old cousin of the bride, was flower girl. The bride was escorted to the altar rail on the arm of her father. Her sister, Catherine, was bridesmaid. Andrew J. Warner, brother of the groom, was best man. The cardinal wore a scarlet cassock and biretta. After kneeling in prayer at the cardinal's altar in the center of the chancel, he rose and was robed in a cope, or cloth of gold, donned his mitre and took the crosier of his office. He then took up his station in front of the altar, after which the bridal party approached the altar and the cardinal performed the marriage service. The nuptial mass was celebrated by Monsignor Joseph A. Delaney, rector of the cathedral parish, and after it the cardinal delivered the papal benediction. The couple received more than 1,000 guests at the executive mansion. Afterward breakfast was served, the bride and groom, with their immediate families and intimate friends, being served privately in a room on the second floor. Tables were set in every other available room and on the spacious verandas for the guests. Late in the afternoon Major and Mrs. Warner departed on a honeymoon trip by automobile.
