Pretty Wedding at Feilding

JARRETT—COCK. Tho Methodist Church, Feilding, was tho scene of a wedding of much interest on Wednesday, October 25, the contracting parties being well and popularly known, particularly in Feilding and Aorangi. The bride was ' May, youngest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Cock, of Feilding, and the bridegroom, Fredrick George, second son of Mr. and Mrs. S. Jarrett, of Aorangi. The Rev E. 0. Blamires performed the ceremony and Mrs. H. Crump presided at the organ. The church had been most effectively decorated for the occasion by girl friends of the bride with arum lilies, cream rambler roses and greenery. The brido, who entered the church with her father, made a dainty picture in her gown of deep cream satin beaute. The bodice, which was encircled with horizontal pintucking from tho yoke of angel-skin lace to tho slim fitting waist, had sleeves of satin puffed at the elbow and tight fitting from thcro to the wrist. The skirt fell in graceful lines, flaring fully at the hem. The long, exquisitely embroidered veil lent for tho occasion by Mrs. Leslie Jarrett, formed a small train and was secured to the hair by sprays of orange buds with a cluster of buds at each side and a string of tiny pearls at the back. A necklet of pearls, gloves, hose and shoes to tone completed this charming toilet with which was carried a sheaf of arum lilies and lilies of the Valley tied with a bow and streamers of tulle. Miss Metta Calder, of Kimbolton, and Miss Vera Jarrett (sister of the bridegroom) made the prettiest of bridesmaids dressed alike in frocks of anklo-longth lemon georgette over silk of the same shade. The bodices with, their puffed sleeves to the elbow were closely moulded to the figure, the flared skirts being adorned at the hem with tiny frills of georgette. With these frocks were worn capes of bluo velvet, also sashes and mittens in the same shade of blue, this pretty shade of blue also being repeated in the summer felt hats with a touch of lemon and in the satin shoos. Tho bridegroom’s gifts, gold necklets with pendants set with sapphires, were also worn. Their posies were of azaleas shading from lemon to gold and tied with a bow of lemon tulle. On leaving tho church the bride was presented with two lucky tokens in the form of horse-shoes, one in gold and the other in cream entwined with orange blossoms, by two tiny girls, Mary Jarrett and May Gcange. Tho duties of best man were carried out by Mr. Henry Cock (brother of the brido) and those of groomsman by Mr. S. Ja.rrett, jnr. (brother of the bridegroom). Following the wedding a reception was held at the Carlton tea-rooms, at which there were about 65 guests. The threetiered wedding cake, which was made and artistically iced in deep cream by the bride’s mother, was a source of much interest and admiration. Mr. and Mrs. Cock received their guests, the latter gowned becomingly in black satin beaute with inset vest of floral georgette in tones of red and coatee of black lace. Her hat was of fine straw with a touch of red and the bouquet of Ted roses, anemones and maidenhair fern. Mrs. Jarrett, mother of the bridegroom, was smartly attired in Lido blue floral crepe-de-chine with vest of beige georgette and straw hat in blue to tone. Her posy was in shades of yellow and blue. Sisters of the bride who were present were Mesdam.es A. W. Geango (Feilding), H. Gatchell (Kimbolton), A. J. Mills (New Plymouth), and G. Millan (Wellington). Among the many beautiful presents received by the young couple was an easy chair from the High School Old Girls’ Hockey Club, of which the bride was club captain for about six years. When leaving for Napier in their car, where tho honeymoon is to be spent, the bride was wearing a frock of black elephant crepe smartly trimmed with touches of white, a white felt hat with touch of black, white gloves and handbag and black suede shoes.
