Her long sweeping train, lined with pink satin and ornamented with pearls and diamante, hung gracefully from her shoulders. Her beautifully embroidered tulle veil was arranged round the head with a coronet of orange blossom and she carried a shower bouquet of pink and white flowers. She was attended by Mary Andrews, sister of the bridegroom, who wore a goWn of salmon pink crepe sylvia, and carried a shower bouquet of pink flowers. Little Sylvia McKay, who acted as flower girl, looked sweet in a frock of lavender crepe de chine, with insets of silk lace. The bridegroom was attended by Mr. P. Griffin, of the H.M.S. Diomede. A guard of honour was formed by friends of the bridegroom from the H.M.S- Diomede. A reception was held at the residence of the bridegroom's parents.
