The frock and veil are valued heirlooms of the family, having been worn by the bride’s grandmother at her wedding 70 years ago. Miss Marjorie and Miss Gwen Gosling attended their sister as bridesmaids wearing maize chiffon velvet with tight-fitting bodices and skirts flared to form an uneven hemline.
