Burgess-Andrews
A very pretty wedding was
solemnized at the home of Mr. and Mrs. J. Andrews at Tyrrell, on New
Years Day, when their only daughter, Mary J., became the bride of
James Lloyd Burgess.
Precisely at high noon to
the strains of the "Bridal Chorus," played by Miss Nellie
Jamieson, the groom took his place beneath an arch of beautifully
decorated evergreens. The bride entered leaning on the arm of her
father and took her place beside the groom. The ceremony was
performed by Rev. W. G. Shaw.
The bride was prettily
gowned in ivory satin with an overdress of georgette, beautifully
trimmed with pearls. Her bridal veil was wreathed with narcissus
blossoms, and she carried a beautiful bouquet of pink carnations and
white narcissus. The groom's gift to the bride was a silver tea set
and to the pianist an emerald pin.
After congratulations and a
wedding dinner, which was partaken of by the immediate relatives and
friends of the contracting parties, the happy couple motored to
Waterford, where amid cheers and confetti they took to 3.45 train
for St. Thomas and Detroit. The bride travelled in a dress of taupe
satin and georgette with black seal coat with sable collar and
cuffs, and a black velvet hat with ostrich tips and faced in French
pink.
The many beautiful gifts
showed the esteem in which the bride and groom are held by their
many friends. Upon their return they will reside at the home of the
groom, Sunny Brac, Villa Nova.
