p. 70 · Read in the full issue
A PRETTY wedding was celebrated re cently at Kavieng, New Ireland, when Miss Margaret (Peggy) Brew, only daughter of Captain and Mrs. A. Brew, of Vaucluse, Sydney, was married to Mr.
Robert Gillespie, second son of Mr. and Mrs. D. Gillespie, of Rose Bay, Sydney.
The ceremony was performed by Rev.
Hugh Simpson in the Methodist Church at Kavieng.
The charming bride wore a beautiful
white lace gown with long sleeves and a long train of lace lined with georgette, and carried a sheaf of orchids and frangipanni blossoms. The bridesmaids, Miss Jeanette Menzies (cousin of the bride), and Miss Helen Gillespie (sister of the groom) wore ensembles of maize chiffon over taffeta, with halo hats of tulle in the same shade touched with gold.
About 80 guests were received by Mrs.
Brew at the Kavieng Club, delightfully decorated for the occasion. An object of admiration at the banquet was the three tiered wedding cake made by the bride’s mother.
The young couple have now settled down in their home at Kavieng.
