The ceremony was held in the spacious drawingroom of the bride’s parents’ residence, which was beautifully decorated with the choicest white blossoms by her sisters. Prominent amongst the decorations was the lovely floral marriage bell under which the happy couple stood during the ceremony. This was a graceful tribute of esteem from the secretary of the Ladies Committee of the Auckland Horticultural Society, of which Mrs A. S. Russell is a member. The nuptial knot was tied by Rev. J. H. Simmonds, Principal of Three Kings Native College, an old and valued friend of the family.

She carried a handsome shower bouquet of lovely white blossoms, maidenhair - and asparagus fern. She was attended by two bridesmaids, Miss Rose Russell, who looked exceedingly well in pale green silk figured lustre, richly trimmed with ecru lace insertion, the yoke of the bodice being effectively trimmed with bands of emerald green velvet. The second bridesmaid was Miss E. Muir (sister of the bridegroom), who looked very winsome in a dainty white silk blouse, adorned with quaint medallions of white silk guipure; a beautiful cambric skirt, tastefully trimmed with fine insertion, finished this becoming costume. Both bridesmaids carried lovely bouquets of white and cream flowers. The bridegroom was attended by Messrs W. -S. Russell and Norman Russell. The bride W’ore a handsome gold watch, and the bridesmaids very pretty gold dagger pins, the hilts richly set with pearls; These were gifts from the bridegroom. The bride and bridegroom, both before and after the ceremony, were recipients of a large number of telegrams and congratulatory messages from friends and relatives in different parts of the colony. After receiving the good wishes from the assembled guests, an adjournment was made to the dining-room, Where a sumptuous wedding breakfast was laid out. A special feature of the .table was the handsome three-tiered bride's cake, placed on a dainty white satin hand-painted table centre finished with white silk cord and frill of white chiffon. This last was the work of the bride’s clever fingers. After the customary toasts were proposed and responded to the bpde and bridegroom departed on their honeymoon to the Waikato.
