The bride bouquet was of white carnations, with relieving touches of pale pink , Alisses Elizabeth Plummer and Sally Cotterill attended the bride and were gowned alike in blue checked organdie, the skirts being full and flared, and tho bodices having the necks cut square, and having three frills running from the front over the shoulders to the piquant V-neck at tho back. Ribbon of a slightly darker blue than the shade in tho Crocking fell from the shoulders of the bridesmaids, and knotted at the waist level, thence coming round to tho front in the form of a sash, with a bow at the back. The bouquets ware in shades of pink.

The number of guests was small, the wedding being quiet on account of Airs. Plummer’s recent recovery from a serious illness, but those present took occasion to compliment Captain and Airs.

Many good wishes for the future happiness of the bridal pair and their respective parents were expressed during the reception, and the bride was especially complimented upon tho guard of honour accorded her at the church doors by members of the Tokomaru Bay Girl Guides’ company, of which she is an officer. Departing later for the honeymoon, Airs. 11. Al. Williams wore a pink linen ensemble, the shading extending to her hat, bag and gloves, and the whole completing a dainty outfit.
