ORANGE BLOSSOMS.
MR A. E. KIGHT TO MISS EDITH BROWN. THE wedding of Miss Eiith Brown, daughter of Mr W. R. E. Brown, of Wellington, to Mr A. E. Kight, followed closely upon the announcement of their engagement. Owing to the bridegroom being removed from New Zealand and having to leave on Friday morning, the marriage was quietly celebrated the previous afternoon in St. Paul’s Church, at two o'clock, only the family being present.
The bride was dressed in a bluish grey gown with cream broidered waistcoat, cream tie, and bat with upstanding bows. Mrs Brown was in black silk, jet and lace mantle, floral bonnet.
A small reception from 8 to 10 p.m. was held as a farewell to the bride, whose health was proposed by Count d’Albans (French consul), at supper. The happy pair drove away at ten o’clock midst showers of rice, etc. They travel overland to Auckland, thence to China. Among those present were Mesdames E. Brown, Williams, Izard, Heaphy, Goring, the Misses Medley, Izard, Campbell, Dudley, Malcolm, etc.
