The bride, who was escorted by her father, wore a gown of magnolia satin, which was cut on slim fitting lines and fell to form a circular train. Her veil was held in place by a coronet of orange blossoms, and she carried a sheaf of cream roses, asters, lily of the valley, and maidenhair fern. She was attended by her sisters, Doris and Clarice, who were frocked alike in pale • green georgette, with nasturtium trimmings. They wore tanshaped head-dresses of green tulles relieved with nasturtium shades, and carried bouquets of Autumn tinted flowers and maidenhair fern. M’- Alex Smith was best man. A reception was held at Harker’s where Mrs. Roberts received the guests wearing an ensemble, in honey gold, with brown accessories. She wore a shoulder spray of Autumn tinted flowers. Mrs. Scanlan, mother of the bridegroom, wore a black frock, with black accessories, and a shoulder spray of red roses. Mr. and Mrs. C. L. Scanlan left by the rail-car for Christchurch and Timaru, the bride wearing a pale blue suit, a blue halo, and a fur coat.
