Wright-Kitchen

The Methodist Church was the scene of a very pretty wedding on Saturday last, when Miss Florence N. Kitchen, eldest daughter of Mrs. Martha Kitchen of Waterford, was united in marriage to Mr. Llewellyn A. Wright of Toronto.

Promptly at three o'clock the bride, wearing her travelling suit of navy blue, entered with her mother, while the wedding march was played by Mr. Mansell Young of Wilsonville. The church was artistically decorated with ferns, asters and dahlias, and the nuptial knot was tied before a bank of these beautiful flowers. Rev. H. Wilkins conducted the ceremony in the presence of about 60 invited guests and many other friends of the bride, who is so well and favorably known in Waterford.

During the signing of the register, Miss Ruth Wilkins played Jules Reynard's charming composition, "A Bowl of Pansies." After the ceremony, a reception was held at the home of Mrs. Kitchen were a delightful buffet lunch was served on the lawn, Short congratulatory and eulogizing speeches were made and Mr. and Mrs. Wright left for Toronto amid showers of confetti and good wishes. Many beautiful and costly gifts among which were several cheques betokened the high esteem in which the young couple are held.

Among the out-of-town guests were:
Mr. & Mrs. H. Wilson and family of Brantford,
Miss Lily Bechtel of Montreal,
Mrs. (Rev.) H. Caldwell and the Misses Elizabeth and Emily Caldwell of Woodstock,
