The Fantasy of Moon-Mist Caught in Veils of Tulle
COLE—VAIL At St. Patrick’s Cathedral last evening a pretty wedding took place when Miss Dulcie Vail, second daughter of Mrs. Vail and the late Mr. A. F. Vail, of Edendale, was married to Mr. Herbert Cole, second son of Mr. and Mrs. J. Cole, of Great North Road, Grey Lynn. Archdeacon Holbrook officiated. The bride, who was given away by her brother, Mr. Ralph Vail, wore a charming frock of shell-pink 1 georgette, lightly relieved with posies of pink and silver. I-ler veil of misty dawn pink tulle was so arranged as to form a long train, and was caught in place by a coronet of orange blossoms. A shower bouquet of pink and white roses completed a dainty toilette. Four bridesmaids were in attendance —Miss Eileen Vail and Miss Hazel Vail, wearing frocks of mist blue georgette, that fell in graceful folds to scalloped hems of silver lace. Their tullle headdresses were finished with silver petals, and they carried bouquets of pink chrysanthemums. Miss Joy Hancock and Miss Ima Burns had chosen frocks of almond green georgette, with touches of ruching on the skirts. Their headdresses of gold tissue harmonised vvith the autumn colouring of their bouquets. The train-bearer was little Miss Joyce Kirkman, who wore a frock of
apricot taffeta, with a quaint frilled skirt. Mr. Charles Cole attended as best man, and Mr. Alfred Cole was groomsman.
BARTRAM—FINLAY For her marriage to Mr. Cyril Wilfred Bartram, of Wellington, a charming early Victorian gown of ivory? French crepe de chine was worn by Dulcie Annie Susan, the eldest daughter of Mrs. and the late Mr. E. Finlay, of Taumarunui. The wedding took place at the local Anglican Church, the vicar, the Rev. T. P. Weatherhog, officiating. Mrsfl Gordon played the nuptial music. Mr. David Finlay, a brother, gave the bride away, and she was attended by Miss Pat O’Connor as bridesmaid, the latter wearing a frock of turquoise blue georgette. A little flower girl, Adele Mattar, looked very dainty in a rose pink crepe de chine petalled frock. Mr. Eric Bartram, the bridegroom’s brother, was best man. After the ceremony a largely attended reception was held in the Theatre Royal, the bride’s mother receiving her guests in a dress of niggerbrown crepe de chine, with facings of fawn and a smart matching hat.
