WEDDING GOWN OF IVORY TULLE OVER WILD ROSE SATIN

McKINNON—ROGERS A pretty wedding was celebrated at the Epiphany Church last evening, when Airini Helena, second daughter of Mr. H. J. and the late Mrs. Rogers, of Grey Lynn, was married to ftouglas John, eldest son of Mr. and Mrs. J. McKinnon, of Vermont Street, Ponsonby. The Rev. Mr. Coats performed the ceremony.

The fitting corsage had the waistline girdled with silver, a spray of orange blossom, and a diamente buckle being worn at one side. Her lovely veil of pale pink embroidered tulle was arranged over a mob cap of silver tissue, falling in long soft folds from a w.reath of orange blossoms. A shower bouquet of palest pink carnations and gladioli was carried.
