Fenton, of Papamoa, and James Benjamin, younger son of Mrs and the late Mr Arthur, of Invercargill, were joined together in holy matrimony, the Rev, Lea being the officiating Minister,

The bride, who entered the church on the arm of her father, wore a beautiful deep cream silk velvet frock cut on slim fitting lines with a high cowl neCk and log-o’-mutton sleeves, very tight fitting from the elbow to the wrist, finished with a row of buttons, Her tulle veil, Which was embroidered with satin poppies, Was caught in place with a coronet of orange blossom. She carried a bouquet of cream roses and maidenhair fern. The bridesmaid’s duties were very successfully carried out by the bride’s sister, Miss Dorothy Fenton, who was dressed in flame silk velvet, fashioned on similar lines to that of the bride. She carried a bouquet of flame coloured mina lobarta and autumn-tinted leaves and maidenhair fern.
