NOTABLE SOCIETY WEDDING LAST NIGHT
Alice Campbell Becomes
the Bride of Walter
MacfarIane.

ne roman Catholic Cathedral was
beautifully decorated last night for the
nuptials of Miss Alice Campbell and
Mr.. Walter Macfarlane. The vast m
terror of the church, indeed, presented
a picture that recalled to many there
the splendour of the social functions of
other days, and the wealth and beauty
and fashion of Honolulu were gathered
there to see it.
The central aisle of the Cathedral
formed an avenue of palm branches.
Upright poles We're entwined with
male caught at the top with clusters
of easter lilies tied with true lover
knots of satin ribbons, and above each
were palm branches dropping toward
the aisle to form the arch. The capitals
of the great nave pillars were adorned
with ferns tied with. tulle. Beneath
the cross was a dense green back
ground for the clusters of beautiful
Easter lilies arranged upon the altar
Inc chancel rails were hidden beneath
ferns and white marguerites, and
plum tree buds accumulated the depth
of green in the decorations. The gate
TO the chancel was guarded by en-
twined ports covered with MALE and
satin ribbons, above which rose two
mounds of lilies. The pulpit was
wreathed with MALE and white carna-
ton leis, amid which candies twinEled.
To the music of the Wedding March
the ushers, Messrs. Arthur MacHintosn,
Frank Armstrong, Samuel Walker and
Will Roth. preceded the bridesmaids,
attired in dainty white gowns and pic
ture hats. each carrying a bridal bout
quet of white daisies, and behind them
alone was the maid of honor, Miss
Muriel Campbell in blue.
Then came the bride leaning on the
arm of Col Samuel Parker. AS the
bridal party entered the church the
audience rose. ALL eyes were turned i
toward the bride, piquant and charm
ing in her beautiful Paris wedding !
gown.
At the chancel the party was met by !
the groom and his best man, Mr.. VIII |
Dickson. Within the chancel stod the |
officiating priest, Father Ulrich, and |
his attendants, and there, while soft !
music was heard the words which |
made them man and wife, were said, |
and the party repaired to the vestry to |
register their names. At this time Mr..
Hugo Herzer sang a beautiful baritone /
solo to organ accompaniment.
Then, to the strains of Mendelssohn's /
Wedding March, the bride and groom
and the bridal party trooped out of the
church, smiling to their smiling friends,
and drove to the Campbell mansion on
Emma street.
There, a magnificent sight greeted
the guests. The entire front yard was
ablaze with electric lights so arranged
about the great tree in the center as
to suggest a tent of electric lights
red, white, green, blue. The bridal
party received in the music room. In
the line for the first GREETINGS were Mr.. 7
and Mrs F. w. Macfarlane, father and
mother of the groom, Prince David
and Col, and Mrs. Sam
ueI Parker. Opposite were Mr.. and
Mrs. Walter Macfarlane and the bridal
party.
The great house, brilliant with IL
was soon thronged with
guests, and after greetings were over
they passed to the garden, where sup
per was served in a brilliantly lighted
pavilion.
The lanai soon attracted the guests
,or there were stationed the Ellis and
he Solomon quintette clubs at OPP
Dosite ends. so that the deux temps
md valse followed in quick succession. ,
The lanai was a favorite rendezvous
throughout the evening and dancing ,
md merrymaking continued until long {
Ifter midnight. !
