rop/wedding/czernowitz/bueller-auerbach

Note that while the invitation is written in German, the official marriage certificate is written in Romanian. Before World War I, the people who lived in Czernowitz were German-speaking, as Czernowitz was part of the Austrian Empire. Between 1918 and 1939, Czernowitz was under Romanian rule, and thus the official documents, such as the marriage certificate was written in Romanian. For Eda's parents from Czernowitz ("Cernauti" under Romanian rule), their first language was German.
Herman Bueller was from Munich, Germany, so for both reasons this personal document--the wedding invitation--was written using the German language.

The above invitation states:
"Moritz Auerbach and wife are honored to invite you to the wedding of their daughter Ida with Mr. Herman Buller which will take place on 30 August 1927 at 8 in the evening in the Bauhandwork Hall on the Dreifaltgkeitsgasse....Sigmund Buller and wife are honored to invite you to the wedding of their son Herman with Miss Ida Auerbach."

"Eure Wohlgeboren" is an expression that means 'your honored person,' or more technically 'well brought up.' "
