Forsyth, Mayne street, and Clement William, young est son of Mrs. I. Wing and the late Mr. John Wing, of South-street, Inver may. The ceremony was performed by Rev. W. Greenwood, and as the bride entered the church, escorted by her father, Mr. A.R. Gee played "The Bridal March." The bride was charming in a frock of ivory corded silk. The cowl neck was caught at either side with a silver clip, and the full length sleeves hung loosely from the elbow. The train, cut in the frock, tapered to a point, and over it fell a veil of tulle, which was pleated to form a halo at the back of the head, and held in position by a wreath of orange blossom. A spray of orange blossom was also worn at the waist. Her bouquet was a sheaf of pink carnations, asparagus fern, and white heath, tied with ivory ribbon. The bridesmaid, Miss Marjorle For syth (sister of the bride wore a full length frock of pale pink marocain, with cowl neck and sleeves which fitted tightly below the elbow. The fullness of the skirt was given by two frills at each side, and covered buttons met the girdle of silk cord which was tied at the back. She wore a hat of pink velvet to match, and carried a bouquet of pink carnations. Little Ruth Kidd, the train-bearer, wore a long frock of blue organdie, with hat to match, and little Freda Ander son, who carried the cushion, was dressed in pink organdie, with hat to match. The bridegroom was attended by Mr. Frank Reid, and while the register was being signed Mr. Fred. Fry sang "Be cause," As the bride came down the aisle two horseshoes were hung on her arm, one by Miss Flo Richardson, and one by little Miss Shirley Wing. The bride's mother wore a costume of striped worsted material, and carried a posy of violets. The bridlegroom's mother wore a navy ensemble, and also carried a posy of violets. The bride was taken to the church by Mr. P. Taylor, of Hobart (friend of the family). After the ceremony the guests were entertained by the bride's parents at their home. The cake was made by the bride's mother, and decorated by Mr Yates. The bride travelled in a tunic frock of royal blue, with hat to match. Mr. and Mrs. Wing's future home will be at Stanley.
