Wedding Bells

McGRATH—STICKING S. On Wednesday, November 7, at the Church of the Sacred Heart, Timaru, the marriage was solemnised of Mr. Frank McGrath and Miss Annie Stickings, both of that town. Rev. Father Hurley, S.M., officiated, Miss Dorothy Mason presiding at the organ. The bride, who entered the church on the arm of her brother (Mr. William Stickin 6 s was attired in a beautiful gown of creme Paris lace, with cross-over bodice and panels of creme crepe marocain, lined with shell pink satin brocade. Her plain tulle veil was held by a coronet of orange blossom, and she carried an exquisite bouquet of pale pink flowers and maidenhair fern. The bridesmaid (Miss Mary Stickings) wore a frock of coral satin charmaunte, with wide sleeves of tucked georgette, and a smart hat of black satin, with a dainty tulle brim, and finished with a handsome ostrich mount. Her bouquet was of mauve rhododendrons and maidenhair fern. Mr. Jack McCarthy, of Timaru, was best man. After the ceremony Mrs. Stickings entertained the guests at her residence, LeCren Street. Later in the day Mr. and Mrs. McGrath left by motor for Christchurch, en route to the North Island, the bride wearing a smart coat and skirt of fawn gaberdine and a very pretty fawn and royal blue hat trimmed with tiny multi-colored flowers.
