It was straight in front and frilled from the knees at the back to form a slight train. The corsage was arranged to 1 correspond with the sleeves, which were long, tight fitting. The cowl neck, adding to the attractiveness of the attirej was caught with a fancy clasp. Her veil of parchment lace was arranged as a little cap §et well back on the head, and it fell about the shoulders before cascading in soft folds to the end of her train.
Her shoes were of parchment and a delightful toilette was completed with a sheaf of rosebuds, dahlias, galardias k and maiden-hair fern. The bridesmaids, ' Miss Muriel Oak (chief), cousin of the bride, and Miss Lorna Ransom, of Rongotea, also a cousin, were attired alike jn tight'fitting frocks t of peach crepe, frilled from the knees. They wore shoes to tone and carried bouquets, of chrysanthemums, arum lilies and maid-en-hair fern. Mr R. C. Wilkinson (brother of the bridegroom) was best man, and Mr E. Ransom groomsman.
