Bride's Father Reads Service at Mainman-Marshall Wedding
Event Takes Place In St. Andrew's Anglican Church, Sturgeon Creek
  St. Andrew's Anglican church, Sturgeon Creek, was the scene of a wedding Saturday, June 27, when Miss Mary Eileen (Molly) Marshall became the bride of Mr. Basil Mainman. Clusters of white and pink peonies with palms and ferns adorned the altar and chancel steps. Pews reserved for the guests were marked with large white tulle bows centred with colonial bouquets of pansies and forget-me-nots. The ceremony, which was conducted by the Rev. T. Marshall, father of the bride, was prefaced with Beethoven's Ave Maria and Wagner's Song of Ruth, Mr. Marwood Brown presiding at the organ.
  The bride, who was given in marriage by her brother, Mr. John H. Marshall, chose a gown of blush pink Chantilly lace on moulded lines. The full bodice was gathered to a plain circular neckline, buttoned at the back with tiny pearls. The front of the skirt was plain; the back fullness was arranged from the waist and fell into a short train. The narrow belt was finished at the back with tiny pearls. The gown was topped with a matching jacket, the soft rolled collar caught at the neckline with a small bow and falling into a point at the back, the long fitted sleeves finished with points over her hands. She wore a halo cap of the lace, secured at the back with forget-me-nots. She carried a bouquet of Talisman roses and a lily of the valley.
  Her only attendant was Miss Mae Overall, who wore a gown of dolce blue sandisheer crepe, gored skirt flared below the knees and attached to a fitted bodice topped with an elbow length cape. Her hat was a model of deeper toned felt banded with dolce blue velvet. Her bouquet was pink roses.
  Mr. Gordon Churchill was groomsman and Mr. Desmond Cox was the usher.
  Mrs. Marshall, mother of the bride, chose a cream chiffon gown printed in yellow and brown and a hat in matching tones. Her corsage was of Talisman roses.
  Mrs. Mainman, mother of the bridegroom, wore a white chiffon gown printed in blue and a white picture hat with corsage of pink roses.
  Following the ceremony a reception was held at the home of the bride's parents, 238 Aldine street.
  Mr. and Mrs. Mainman left by motor for a three weeks' trip through the central states, after which they will reside at 949 Ashburn street. For travelling, the bride wore a navy blue suit of treebark crepe with pink accessories and a corsage of pink roses.
