WEDDING.

TURNER—MORGAN. A very pretty wedding was solemnised at the Palmerston North Cuba Street Methodist Church, on Wednesday evening, September 28th, when Miss Lillian Morgan, eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Alec Morgan, of Palmerston North, and late of Foxton, was united in the bonds of matrimony to Mr. Victor Turner, only son of Mr. and Mrs. 11. Turner, of Grey Street. The bride was daintily attired in a gown of fine lace over silver tissue, finished with a rope of pearls and ornament at the waist. She also wore a very old cameo brooch, a family heirloom. Her veil was prettily arranged with orange blossom and she carried a handsome bouquet of pink and white flowers which made a delicate finish to the wedding gown. The bridesmaids were Miss Hazel Morgan (chief), sister of the bride, wh,o was gowned in a pretty shade of blue charmeuse; Miss Myrtle Turner, sister of the bridegroom, who wore a dainty gown of lavender crepe-de-chine, and Miss Amy Morgan, cousin of the bride, whose gown was pale pink crepe-de-chine. They all wore bands of silver leaves and flowers to match their dresses and carried bouquets to tone with same, silver , shoes and stockings completing the toilets. The gifts to the bridesmaids from the bridegroom were a string of pearls each. Mr. Gordon Bleakley, of Feilding, was best man, and Air. J. MePhee, and Mr. T. Beil were groomsmen. The bride’s mother wore a gown of black silk and a black hat and carried a posy of mauve and pink flowers. The bridegroom’s mother also wore black crepe-de-chine and carried a pretty posy of flowers. The bride’s bouquet, which was very much admired, was made by Mrs. A. J. Hunt and the bridesmaid’s bouquets were made by Mrs. Rand, of Foxton. The officiating clergyman was Rev. H. T. Peat, the service being choral. After the ceremony a reception was held at the Scouts’ Hall, King Street, where about 125 guests were entertained, and the usual toasts honoured. Later in the evening dancing was indulged in until a late hour. The presents received by the bride and bridegroom were numerous and costly, numbering well over 100 and showing the esteem in which they are held. The honeymoon is being spent in Wellington, the bride travelling in a rose du hois crepe-de-chine gown, with coat of same colour in repp, her hat being a pretty colour to tone with the gown.
