At the shoulder and again at the waistline appeared trails of silver roses, and the silver note was repeated in the streamers that fell from the bride’s beautiful bouquet of blush pink and white flowers. Three maids attended the bride, ope. a bridesmaid and the others two dain-tily-dressed flower girls. Miss Eileen Gallot, as the bridesmaid, wore a full-skirted frock of hyacinth blue georgette, embroidered in dainty fashion with little posies of silken flowers. Her headdress was of tulle and she carried a blue-tinted bouquet. The flower girls were two little neices of the bride, the Mises Eileen Corcoran and Miriam Gallot, each prettily frocked in frilled georgette, the one in lavender and the otl\er in a delicate peach pink shade. Xarrow lace edged each frill and tiny silver motifs lent their charm to the skirts. Their headdresses were of tulle and silver, and they carried Victorian posies of closely-packed small blooms. The ceremony was conducted by the Rev. Carew Thomas and the bride was given away by her father. Mr. Cecil Lockie attended the bridegroom as best man.
