WEDDING BELLS.
Ralph—Coley.
On Thursday last at All Saints Church, Foxton, a quiet but pretty wedding was solemnised. The contracting parties were Herbert Thomas Ralph, late of Australia, and Sarah Jane Coley, second daughter of the late Mr W. Coley. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. Mr Wilson. The bride looked very becoming dressed in cream voile trimmed with silk insertion and silk chiffon. She wore the usual veil and orange blossoms, and carried a shower bouquet. The bride was given away by her uncle, Mr Fred Williams. The bridesmaids were Misses Alice and Charlotte Coley, sister and cousin of the bride, and were dressed in white silk dresses and carried bouquets. Mr C. Coley, brother of the bride, acted as best man, and Master P, Coley as groomsman. The bridegroom’s presents to the bride and bridesmaids were pretty gold brooches. The happy pair were driven to the residence of Mrs R. Coley, senr., the bride’s grandparent, where the wedding breakfast was partaken of and the usual toasts honoured. The happy couple left by coach en route for Wellington, where the honeymoon is being spent. The wedding presents were both numerous and handsome.
