WEDDING BELLS.

ANDERSON —McOULLOCH. The Presbyterian Church, Shannon, was the scene of a very pretty wedding on Wednesday morning when Eunice May, daughter of Mr and Mrs R. McCulloch, of Margaret Street, Shannon, was married to Norman Olaff, second son of Mr and the late Mrs C. Anderson, of Shannon. The church was artistically decorated by friends and relations for the occasion. The bride, who was given away by her father, wore a charming frock of ivory crepe-de-chine, radium lace and lemon spray. Her beautiful embroidered silk tulle veil was caught to the head with a coronet of orange blossoms, while silver brocade shoes completed her toilet. She carried shower bouquet of lemon and bronze chrysanthemums. Miss Gladys McCulloch, sister of the bride made a pretty bridesmaid, in a model frock of biscuit crepe-matini, with shoes and hat to tone. She carried a cluster bouquet of cosmos and dahlias. The duties of best man were successfully carried out by Mr F. L. Taylor, of Pahautanui When leaving the church the bride was-presented with a white satin horseshoe by her little niece Miss Tess McCulloch, of Palmerston North.

After the ceremony a reception was held at the residence of the bride’s parents, Mrs McCulloch receiving her guests in a black satin gown with bioge trimmings. The happy couple were the recipients of several cheques and many beautiful and useful presents.

Later the newly married couple left by car for Levin en route for Christchurch where the honeymoon will be spent. The beautifully two tier cake was made by the bride’s sister, Mrs J.
