LOFT—McVIOAR. St. Mary's Church, Wauganui, was the scene of a very pretty wedding on September 16 last, when James Loft, eldest son of Mrs. C. Ritchie and the late John Loft, of Auckland, was united in the bonds of holy Matrimony to Mary Esther McVicar, eldest _ daughter of Mr. H. B. McVicar and the late Mrs. McVicar, of Manaia, Taranaki. The Rev. Father Mahony officiated. The bride, who entered the church on the arm of her father, wore a dainty gown of cream morocco satin. Her veil was held in place with a circlet of orange blossoms, and she carried a beautiful bouquet of pale pink sweet peas and freesias. The bridesmaid, Miss R. McVicar (sister of the bride), wore a delicate blue frock of satin soleil, and a black georgette hat trimmed with ospreys. She carried a dainty bouquet of cream freesias. Mr. Johi Loft, brother of the bridegroom, was best man. After the ceremony a reception was held at St. Joseph's Hall, where the customary toasts were honored. Mr. and Mrs. Loft left later for their wedding trip, the bride wearing a nigger brown costume, with hat to tone also a black fur coat,'which was one of the handsome wedding gifts. _„'-"'
