Wedding Bells.

SLEIGHT—HOLLARD. The quiet but pretty wedding of Ina Leila, only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. C. E. Hollard, of Mangatapu, and Kenneth Mathieson, elder son of Mr. and Mrs. G. H. B. Sleight, of Wanganui, was recently solemnised at the Methodist Church, Lower Hutt, by Rev. Olds. The bride, who was given away by her father, wore a charming gown, of ivory mariette, the hem of which, being longer at the back, was composed of rows of tiny frills. The skirt of patterned French lace was caught up at the waist with a large diamante lovers’ knot. The tulle veil, hand-

worked in sprays of silk flowers, was held in place by a circlet of tiny orange blossoms, worn high on the head. A long sheaf of St. Joseph’s lilies was carried. The bridesmaid, Miss Tot Ayson, of Lower Hutt, wore a frock of apricot georgette, the uneven hem line being accentuated by the flared frills of the skirt. A large bow and two streamers fell from the left shoulder. A large straw hat of the same shade, simply trimmed with a swathing of delphinium-blue georgette, was worn. A sheaf of blue delphiniums was carried. Mr. A. F. Scherer, of Rarotonga, was best man. A reception was afterwards held at the residence of Mrs. C. Hollard senior, who. wore black embossed chenille. Mr. and Mrs. C. E. Hollard received the guests, Mrs. Hollard wearing a model frock of dark delphinium blue and hat to tone. Mrs. G. H. B. Sleight wore a navy ensemble with hat to match.
