Peach Blossom Weddings

The church, which had been decorated with flowering peach blossom by Miss Ruby Waters, made a beautiful setting to a dainty picture and brought many expressions of delight from the large crowd tbat filled the church.

The first contracting parties to file up the aisle to the "Wedding March," played by Mrs H. Stokes on the organ, were Victoria (Sis), daughter of Mr and the late Mrs J. H. Saler, of Port Pirie, and Leslie, second son of Mrs and the late John Hillman, of Quorn.

The bride, who was acoompanied by Mr T. H. Bury, was frocked in white silk morocain. The veil of tulle was held in position by a coronet of orange blossom, and she carried a trailing bouquet of pink and white rosebuds.

The matron of honour was Mrs H. T. Hughes, of Willowie (sister of the bridegroom), who wore biege lace and net and a hat of pink flowers and carried a bouquet to match.

The best man was Mr J. Saler (brother of the bride), of Port Pirie.
