Tilbrook-Cooke Wedding:
AT Stow Memorial Church last night the marriage was solemnised by the Rev. H. S. Grim wade of Miss Freda Cooke and Mr. William R. Tilbrook. The bride, who was given away by her father, is the eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. Cooke, of the town hall, Adelaide, and the bridegroom is the second son of Mr. and the late Mrs. W. D. Tilbrook, of Brighton. Magnolia satin was chosen by the bride for her dress, which had a tunic coat of lace, a long train, and tight fitting sleeves. Her veil of silk tulle was embroidered with true lovers' knots, and was fastened to a halo of orange blossom. She carried a sheaf of white roses and chrysanthemums. Three sisters of the bride-Mrs. D. Collaton, Misses Joyce and Joan Cooke -and a sister of the bridegroom-Miss Meg Tiibrook-were in attendance as matron of honor and bridesmaids. They were dressed alike in gold taffeta, made on princess lines, with puff sleeves and full flared skirts. Halo hats of similar material with high pointed crowns were worn, and their mittens were old gold in shade. They carried autumn-toned sheaves. Mr. E. Miller was best man, and the groomsman was Mr. J. Brown. After the ceremony 90 guests were entertained at Balfour's Cafe. The bride's mother wore a dress of navy French crepe, made with a high cowl neckline and bishop sleeves. With it she wore a velvet coat, a velour hat to tone, and a spray of red roses. The bride's travelling outfit was a black tunic suit with trimmings of gold beads, and a black velour hat with a touch of gold.
