WEDDINGS

WOOD—HEWSON The Presbyterian Church, Temuka, which was beautifully decorated by friends of the bride, was the scene on Wednesday of the wedding of Brenda Marion, second daughter of Mr and Mrs R. H. Hewson, Seadown, to Jeffery Oscar, second son of Mr and Mrs H. Wood, Albury. The Rev. W. F. Nichol performed the ceremony, and Mrs McDonald presided at the organ. The bride, who was escorted _by her father, wore a frock of ivory figured satin, cut on slim-fitting lines, the deep folds forming a train. The heartshaped neck was finished with an old family silver horseshoe brooch. The tight fitting sleeves were pointed over the hand and trimmed with buttons. Her beautifully embroidered veil fell from a crown-like coronet, which consisted of orange blossom and net. She carried a shower bouquet of freesias, clematis and maidenhair fern. The bride’s sister, Miss Winnie Hewson, acted as bridesmaid. She wore a frock of powder-blue georgette, made on the same slim fitting lines as that of the bride. The square-necked bodice with short draped sleeves, was ruched across the front and trimmed with ping centred georgette flowers. In her hair she wore pink rosebuds. She also wore a necklace of pearls, a gift of the bridegroom. Her bouquet consisted of pink japonica, blue hyacinths and pink and blue anemones. Mr Lindsay Wood, cousin of the bridegroom, acted as best man. The reception was held at the home of the bride, where the guests were received by Mr and Mrs Hewson and Mrs Wood.
