Wedding in Christchurch. The marriage of Miss Marona Bullock, only daughter of Mrs. Bullock, Wadestown, Wellington, and the late Mr. G. B. Bullock, to Mr. Eric Milton, only son of Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Milton, Feudalton, took place at St. Mary’s, Merivale, on Wednesday afternoon, the Ven. Archdeacon ITaggitt officiating. The bride arrived with her uncle, Mr. George ■Rhodes, who gave her away. She wore a wedding gown of rich white satin brocaded in silver, made on quite simple lines. Her veil of Brussels net, lent by the bridegrooms mother, was arranged in a novel way, being folded hack off the face in Dutch cap fashion, over a coronet of orange blossom tied at the back with long, narrow streamers of white ribbon, which, mingling with the long veil, gave the appearance of a transparent train. She carried a bouquet of white Maman Cochet roses veiled and tied with white tulle. Miss Shona Rhodes, cousin of the bride, was the only bridesmaid. Her gown was of white t.d'etn«, patterned with pink roses and b’uo towers and fine black lines in squares, made in fouffante fashion over a skirt of lovely lace. Her hat of the same lace was of early Victorian pattern trimmed with posies of flowers and long streamers of narrow blue and pink velvet falling from the back, each finished with a tiny posy. She carried a posy of flowers to match. Mr. Y. Robinson was the best man. A reception was afterwards held at “Beverley.” the I emo of Air. and Mrs. George Rhodes. The reception rooms were beautifully decorated, the drawing-room and dining-room with white lilies and huge howls of white roses, the hall and billiard Tcoin with masses of nink and red roses and nutumu foliage. The bride's travelling dress was of brown velour cloth; and hat of brown pnnne, the smartly upturned brim being covered with autumn tinted leaves She also wore a set of brown fiira.
