TO-DAY’S WEDDING.

Pretty Ceremony at St Mary’s. CORDERY—BUTCHER. A wedding of interest to a wide circle of friends both in the North and. South Islands, took place this afternoon at St Mary’s Church, Merivale, between Beatrice, second daughter of Mrs and the late Mr H. F. Butcher. Napier, and Dr Lionel Hildreth Cordery, second son of Mr and Mrs L. L. Cordery, Papanui. The Rev A. K. Warren performed the ceremony, for which the church had been decorated with pink flowers and palms. Mr A. Worsley was the organist. An exquisite gown of cameo pink silk velvet was worn by the bride. The tight-fitting bodice had long sleeves fully rucked from shoulder to elbow, and the skirt, which formed a high point at the front and the back of the neck, gradually widened until it fell in rich ankle-length folds in front, and formed a sweeping train at the back. A wide pleating of»the material was effectively used to weight the train, and several strands of pale pink pearls at the neckline were the only ornament to relieve the graceful simplicity of the gown. Her embroidered pink net veil was mounted on a filmy foundation of tulle, which billowed over her train, and was worn w’ith a halo of tipy pink orange blossoms. Her bouquet was of shaded pink carnations, roses and begonias. Mr Arnold Butcher gave away his sister. Mrs Quentin M’William (Khandallah. Wellington) the bride’s sister, attended her as matron of honour,, and Miss Janie Rennell, cousin of the bridegroom, and Miss Joan Swanseger, (Napier) were the bridesmaids. Little Alice Robinson made a dainty trainbearer. The matron-of-honour and the maids were dressed alike in pale jade green velvet ankle-length frocks. The sleeves were puffed above the elbow, and a deep yoke of pastel-pink lace was inset in the bodice. Velvet hats to match, with rucked crowns, were worn, and were trimmed with pink flowers at the back. Their pink mittens carried out the colour scheme, and their bouquets were of pink hothouse flowers, with a little mauve as relief. The train-bearer’s frock of black velvet was in striking contrast to the other frocks. It was made as a Dutch girl’s, with a tight-fitting bodice to the high neck-line, and flared fully to the feet. Huge shoulder puffs of beige organdie, edged with box-pleated Valenciennes lace, with an organdie bertha also edged with the lace, relieved any suggestion of sombreness. A black velvet Dutch cap with a pointed crown was tied with organdie and velvet ribbons. Mr Richard Fryer was the best man, and Messrs Eric Cordery and Jack Butcher were groomsmen. At the reception, held at the United Service Hotel, Mrs Butcher received her guests in an ensemble of Burgundy Angora oloth, with a tie and cuffs of beaver. Her small felt hat was to match, and her bouquet was of fuchsiatinted flowers. Mrs Cordery assisted her, wearing a frock of magnolia watered velvet and a three-quarter coat to match, trimmed with brown beaver. The bodice of the frock was draped with figured lame in silver, terracotta and brick, and her hat was of terracotta velvet, trimmed with an osprey. Her bouquet was of hothouse flowers in autumn tints. A frock of geranium wool georgette and a coat to match was chosen by the bride for travelling. The frock was made with long epaulette sleeves, and the coat had short cape sleeves. Her hat was of velvet to match, and she also wore an ermine fur.
