The bride, who was given away by her father, wore a gown of ivory stiffened taffeta fashioned into a tight-fitting quilted jacket with a bouffant skirt. Her tulle veil was caught to the head with orange blossom, and she carried a prayer book with a shower of cream waterlilies. Miss B. Petherbridge, cousin of the bride, was bridesmaid and wore a frock of ivory dimity spotted with green. She had water-lilies in her hair. Mr. Bill Ackroyd was best man. Following the ceremony a reception was held at the Mount Eden Tea Kiosk, where the guests were received by the bride's sister, Mrs. G. Knuckey, who wore a cinnamon suit. Assisting her was the bridegroom's mother, who was in a black ensemble.
