NEW ZEALAND WEDDING IN LONDON.
"♦ '— [PEOU OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.] London, June 23. Br the San Francisco mail last week I sent you a paragraph announcing the wedding of Mr. Basil Nelson Tebbs, M.A., .M.D., 8.C., Cantab., of 144, Portewood Road, Southampton, the second son of the late Rev. William Tefas, M.A., vicar of St. Matthew's Church, Auckland, New Zealand and of Mrs. Tebbs, of Bedford Hill, Lon-' don. Since the departure of that mail I have received some particulars with regard to this marriage, which I feel sure will be read with interest in the colony, more particularly perhaps in Auckland. The bride, it will be remembered, was Miss Constance Marguerite (Daisy) Osgood only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William Henry Osgood of Streathbourne House, Bal,ham High Road, London. The ceremony took place at the Church of St. John the Divine. Bedford Hill, Loudon, and was performed by the Rev. Edgar Sheppard, D.D., C.V.0., sub-dean of His Majesty's Chapels Royal, and the Rev. Booth 11. Lyons, M.A., vicar of the Church of St. John the Divine! The bride, - who was given away by her" father, wore a beautiful dress of white satin covered with ivory mousseliue de soie; it was trimmed with Brussels lace and chiffon. Both bodice and skirt were very full, and were trimmed with many ruohes and frills of chiffon, as also was the train, which was arranged from the waist; the sleeves were of elbow length; there was a V-shaped yoke of tucked chiffon to the bodice, which was finished with a deep belt. She carried a shower bouquet of choice White flowers. Mrs. Osgood, mother of the bride, wore a dress of black cropoline over black glace SUK, trimmed with ruches of black gauze ribbon; the bodice was finished with a berth© and front of cream' lace. Her toque was of white crinoline straw with jetted front, white aigrette and pink roses; she carried a shower bouquet of pink roses.'Mrs. Tebbs, mother of the bridegroom, was in a dress of black transparent silk voile over black glace silk. Her bodice was trimmed with ivory-white silk passementerie and with ruchings of black chiffon; it had a pretty front of ivory-white crepe do chine, and the elbow-length sleeves were finished with frills of cream chiffon. Mrs. Tebbs wore a toque of Tuscan passementerie over self-colour tulle, trimmed with black velvet and with cerise roses in throe tones;' her shower bouquet correspanded with the flowers.
At the conclusion of the ceremony a reception took place at the residence of the bridles parents, at which about 70 guests were ' present. Among the number were Mrs. Lyon and the Misses Lyon, who resided in Auckland for some years, and Dr. Vaughan-Hughes, who is well known in New Zealand.
