"WEDDINGS
KIRKCALDIE—DIGGES SMITH.
A wedding which interested a great many friends took place at St. Paul's Pro-Cathedral yesterday when Ismay, daughter of Mr. H. Digges Smith, of Talavera Terrace, Wellington, and the late Mrs. Digges Smith, was married to Peter, son of Mr. Sidney Kirkcaldie, of Karori, and the late Mrs. Kirkcaldie. The setting for the bridal group was very charming, many yellow and bronze chrysanthemums being used effectively, also high palms, which quite overshadowed the dainty figures of the bride and bridesmaids. The Rev. Canon James performed the ceremony, and Mr. Robert Parker, C.M.G., played appropriate wedding music. The bride, who was escorted by her father, wore a gown of handsome cream matalasse with an oil-over design of small raised leaves which had stems of gold thread and were thrown into relief by tiny dots of gold on the background. Long tight-fitting sleeves formed a point well over the hands and buttoned at the wrists with small buttons. The bodice which was cut high at the neckline was outlined with orange blossom. A long, wide girdle made of the same material as the frock and lined with gold lame was worn. The straight slim-fitting skirt formed a long-pointed train which was slit down the centre as far as the natural hem-line. The lovely veil was a cloud of cream tulle and was held to the head by a halo of stiffened tulle which, had a small spray of orange blossom across the front; She carried a bouquet of beautiful cream roses. The bridesmaids were Miss Moira Digges Smith and Miss Valmai Richardson. Their frocks were of unusual material, heavy cream crepe georgette striped with alternate lines of fine self cording and gold thread. A wide twisted scarf lined with gold lame formed a fold cowl in front, and the long ends hung down the back. The long tight-fitting sleeves were split from the shoulder to the elbow and again from below the elbow to the wrist. The skirts were slightly trained, a godet of gold lame frills let in at the back and front. They wore wreaths of gold leaves in their hair and carried bouquets of deep red roses.
Mr. Geoffrey Speedy, Taniwha, Waipukurau, was best man, and Mr. M. Attenbprough, Hants, England, was groomsman.
Miss R. McGregor (aunt of the bridegroom) wore navy blue georgette frock, fur cape, and a black hat.
Mrs. C. W. Tringham (aunt of the bride) who received the guests with Mr. Digges Smith, wore a shell blue satin tunic-frock, trimmed with tiny gold beads, also a velour hat of the same colour with a gold cord around the crown.
Mrs. Agmen-Smith (aunt of the bride) wore a black satin tunic frock with the reverse faced with beige satin and a smart black hat.
Mrs. T. R. Lawson (aunt of the bride) wore black mariette with touches of cream, and a matching hat; Mrs. W. H. Price (aunt of the bride) was in green and beige crepe de chine, and a matching hat.
Other guests included Miss McGregor (aunt of the bridegroom,) and Mr. and Mrs. C. Mirams, Mr. and Mrs. Keith Kirkcaldie, Mrs. Herbert Kirkcaldie, Miss F. Smith, Mrs. O'Hara Smith, and a number of younger relatives of both bride and bridegroom, and some intimate older friends of both families.
The wedding reception.and luncheon party was held at the Hotel St. George, where the Palm Lounge had been specially decorated, many wall-baskets having quantities of cream and pink Iceland poppies with greenery tastefully arranged, while stands of chrysanthemums and winter hydrangeas were also very effective. The bride's table was centred by the square-tiered wedding cake, set in a base of pink and crimson roses and autumn leaves; along the outer edge of the table were flat baskets of roses and leaves similarly arranged with trails of asparagus fern falling over the white napery. The long tables for the guests were arranged with crystal vases with pink and cream poppies, and with hanging baskets similarly arranged at the back of the tables. A delicious lunch was served, and the wedding was a very happy one, so many young guests adding much to the pleasantness. Canon James made an amusing and kindly speech, and the bridegroom and best man replied, and then the guests foregathered in a particularly happy manner. The bride's travelling frock was of woollen marocain, the yoke and belt being of Richelieu work in blue, her tricorne hat being to match."
