LIDDELL - McCROHON.
St. Mary's Church of England, Mount Morgan, was prettily decorated by friends of the bride for the wedding of Ella, only daughter of the late Mr. McCrohon and Mrs. McCrohon, Stover street, Mount Morgan, and Isaac Vivian, third son of Mr. and Mrs. I. Liddell, of Callide, which was celebrated by the Rev. C. W. Chandler on November 17. The wedding March was played by the Church organist.
The bride, who was given away by her brother, Mr. J. McCrohon, wore ivory georgette over bridal satin, cut on classical lines. The flared skirt was daintily trimmed with tiny frills, and a spray of orange blossoms made a pretty finish to the bodice. Her Brussels net veil was held in position with a coronet of orange blossoms and was lent by Mrs. Byers, of Rockhampton. She carried a beautiful bouquet of St. Joseph's liles and maidenhair and bridal fern.
The bride was attended by Miss Mary Ward as bridesmaid and by two littte flower girls - Misses Nancy Lee and Dawn Campbell, nieces of the bridegroom. Mr. Joseph R. Liddell, brother of the bridegroom, was best man.
The bridesmaid wore a pretty powder blue marocain frock featuring a cowl neckline and a flared skirt falling to her ankles. She also wore a white picture hat and she carried a bouquet of pastel shaded gerberag and maiden hair fern. The flower girls were frocked alike in pale pink organdi over satin with ankle-length skirts frilled from the knees, puff sleeves, and black velvet ribbons forming the waistlines. Their headdresses of pink tulle and the baskets of pink carnations whicli they carried matched their frocks.
The bridegroom's gift to the bride was a nigger brown handbag; to the bridesmaid a cheque, and to the flower girls gold bangles. The bride's present to the bridegroom was a set of gold sleeve links and studs. The bouquets were made by Miss Faiey, of Yeppoon.
After the ceremony the wedding breakfast was held at the residence of the bride's mother, where pink and blue latticed streamers to tone with the bridesmaids' or flower girls' frocks, formed the decorations, and about 50 guests were entertained. A wedding bell was suspended over the bridal couple.
The bride's mother wore a floral mastic georgette frock with a hat to match, and the bridegroom's mother chose black silk marocain relieved with white and a black and white hat.
The honeymoon was spent in Sydney and the Blue Mountains. The bride's travelling dress was of mastic floral uncrushable marocain and with it she wore a hat to tone.
