Barbara Storer, society columnist for Entertainment News & Views, was married to nationally renowned attorney Ellis Rubin beneath a 200-year-old banyan tree in the yard of their Bay Point home by the world-famous psychic Micki Dahne.
Five years previously, Micki Dahne had predicted the two would wed when they were aboard for a cocktail party on the 150-foot-yacht M.Y. Zein, which had been owned by Aristotle Onassis, said to be the yacht where Princess Grace and Prince Rainier spent their honeymoon.
The wedding party consisted of Peggy Iacocca, the former wife of Chrysler Chairman Lee Iacocca; Judy Sabel, formerly wed to Leonard Solomon, an inventor of pantyhose, and Robert Barrar, Rubin’s law partner, and his wife Beth.
Barbara wore an ankle length, pale peach wedding dress, the bodice highlighted by pearls and delicate flowers. Cascading flowers were worn in her hair.
For something borrowed, Barbara wore the shoes which Peggy Iacocca had worn in her marriage. Something old was her mother’s (and best friend) cross; something new was her wedding band, and somethin blue was a blue garter provided by Judy Sabel.
Soft wedding music from the film “Out of Africa” flowed from the home as the nuptials took place. The couple’s four Doberman Pinschers: Sheba, Magic, Splash, and Destiny were the couple’s guard of honor. Forge owner Al Malnik and his bride Nancy hosted the wedding dinner, where well-wishers included Roy and Lea Black, Jean and Charles Cavalaris, Fana and Abel Holtz, Cindy Carr, Miles McGrath, Joanne and Rudy Theale, Jack Hartley, Monica Heftler, Bobbi Star and Albert Cohen.
