One of the very prettiest weddings
for long time was that Of Miss Mary
Adele Morgan to Mr. John Lundy
Fleming at St. Andrew S Cathedral last
evening.
The decorations were striking; the
cathedral was well filed with friends
of the Young couple; a handsome bride
was attended by handsome bridesmaid
| and maid of honor; the surpIiced choir
in attendance, the officiating clergy
man in bishops robes, and the fine
voiced organ well played gave state
| illness and a beauty to the ceremony
which has seldom been surpassed.
The supplied choir entered, singing
as a professional one of the hymns of
the church. From the music of the
| hymn the organ changed to the swell
ing measures of the Mendelssohn we'd
ding march, and the bridal party en-
tered. First was little Helene Nor
gan, sister of the bride, as the flower
girl, carrying pretty basket of flow
ers. The maid of honor, Miss Letitia
Morgan, sister of the bride, the brides
maid, Miss Code NJ. Garden, and the
ushers, Messrs. Roscoe w. Perkins,
Harold Castle, William G. Walker, and
Robert E. Mist At the choir steps the
groom with his best man, Mr.. David
Lee Austin, and the officiating clergy
man, Bishop Restarick, awaited them
Here the bride was given away by her
father, and advancing to the steps of
the sanctuary troths We're plighted, the
4 .
clared man and wife.
While the marriage register was be-
ing signed without the ambulatory, the
choir sang another hymn, and the we'd
ding party proceeded through the choir
and the center aisle to the door of the
church, while the organ pealed out the
Wagnerian strains Of the wedding
march from Lohengrin.
From the church the wedding party
went at once to the home of the bride s
parents, where a wedding supper was
served, those present being, besides the
wedding party, only the relatives and
Bishop Restarick and Mrs. Restarick.
Later in the evening the newly mar
ried couple went by automobile to DIR.
Cooper s Tantalus cottage, and later
will 90 to ]. P. Cooke IS country house
in Koolau, where they viii remain for
week or so.
The wedding presents were rich and
handsome and attested the large circle
of friends the young couple have. Two
large tables were required to hold the
cut glass alone, which had been show
cred on them. Silver and handsome
tableware was in large variety, and
almost everything of ornament and use |
which a house may contain.
st. Andrew IS Cathedral, since its ex-
tension, lends itself vastly TO decora-
ton and to affairs of this sort, and the /
decorations last evening were most eff
fective. The color scheme was green
and white. Small ferns were used eff
feetively, while white asters were used
lavishly throughout. The pulpit was
almost hidden with an affluenee of
lilies, while about the foot of the lee
tern and draping the ends of the pews
reserved for the family and relatives,
white marguerites were used. At the
sides of the altar and well back in the
chancel larger ferns were used in
masses
The bride wore an exceedingly hand i
some wedding dress of white satin,
prineesse, with full train, the dress
with HonIton point lace, and
the usual veil The maid of honor and L
the bridesmaid We're in pink chiffon,
without train. They carried pink roses,
while the bride carried bouquet of Il
white roses. The brides mother wore
a very handsome black and white gown
with duchesse lace, and hat
to match, trimmed with handsome os-
trieh plumes.
Prof Rudland Bode was the organ
st for the occasion. The church was
entirely filed with friends and many
handsome costumes were worn.
As the newly married couple left the
church they were showered with rice
by some of the more intimate friends
who had not failed in their plans to
carry out this time-honored custom.
The bride is the eldest daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. James f. Morgan, and
has very large circle of warm friends.
