The bridesmaid, Miss Mabel Park
(sic), wore, an Empire gown, of cyclamen chiffon, and added a coronet of tiny rosebuds. She carried a basket of blue delphiniums and pink carnations kindly arranged by Mrs. J. P. McPhee.
Mr. Ron Fairhall acted as best man.
During the signing of the register Miss Marcia Hammond sang "Because." Rev. Bromley presided at the organ.
