WEDDING
JENSEN—WRIGLEY. The Knox Church, Masterton, was the scene of a pretty wedding on Saturday afternoon when Joyce Elinor, only daughter of Mrs J. C. Wrigley, Bideford, and the late Mr Wrigley, was married to Norman, son of Mr A. T. Jensen, Hatuma, Hawke’s Bay, and the late Mrs Jenson. The church was decorated in toning shades of blue and pink by friends of the bride. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. John Davie, and Mr C. W. Kerry was at the organ. The bride, who was escorted by her cousin, Mr L. Wrigley, of New Plymouth, wore a gown of white brocaded satin, fashioned on princess lines, with a flowing train. The long sleeves came to a point over the wrists. The veil was caught up with a top-not of orange blossom. She carried a sheaf of lilies and carnations. Miss Phyllis Nikolaison. of Mauriceville West, who attended the bride, was attired in a frock of delphinium blue taffeta, with a bustle bow at the back and full sleeves. Her bouquet was of pink carnations and maidenhair fern. The duties of best man were carried cut by Mr Rupert Jensen (brother of the bridegroom). Messrs Frank Morton, Takapau, and Nigel Wright, Hatuma, were the ushers at the church. A reception was held at the Hotel Midland, where many guests, including visitors from all parts of the North Island, were received by Mrs Wrigley, who wore a gown of black marocain, with ermine stole and a red corsage spray, assisted by Miss M. Jensen, of Hatuma (sister of the bridegroom) who was attired in a sage green dress with honey-gold hat and coat, and wearing an autumn tinted shoulder spray. When Mr and Mrs N. Jensen left amidst showers of confetti for a tour of the North Island the bride wore a teal blue ensemble with matching accessories. Their future home will be in Dannevirke.
