Wedding
MULLINS— WRIGHT.
St. Patrick's Church, Rockley, was the scene of a pretty wedding, when Eileen, youngest daughter of Mrs. and the late Mr. Thomas Mullins, Triangle Flat, was married to Erwin, eldest son of Mr. and Mrs. W. Wright, of Foster's Valley, near Rockley.
The Rev. Father Crowe officiated and also celebrated the Nuptial Mass.
The bride, who was given away by her brother-in-law, Mr. Thomas Connors, was charmingly attired in white crepe de chene, and wore the customary wreath and veil. She carried a bouquet of pale pink roses with asparagus fern and white streamers.
The bridesmaids were Miss Cassie Connors, niece of the bride, and Miss Edna Mullins, sister of the bride, who were dressed in cream silk merle, with hats to match. They carried bouques [sic] of white sweet-peas and wore gold and amethyst brooches, gifts of the bridesgroom [sic].
The bridegroom was attended by Mr. Jack Connors as best man and Mr. Jack Johnson as groomsman.
The happy couple left for Bathurst by motor, thence to the Mountains, where their honeymoon will be spent. The bride travelled in a mole crepe-de-chene with hat in keeping.
