The bride wore a beautiful dress of white ninou-de-soie over chiffon mounted on glace , the corsage was smartly trimmed with rich Cluny lace, and the skirt with satin knots. A handsomely-embroidered tulle veil was clasped by a spray of oranelossoms, and a lovely bouquet of white flowers and ferns was carried.
Mr. Cecil Pead (brother of the bride) gave his sister away. The bridesmaids were the Misses Kathleen and Constance Molloy (sisters of the bridegroom), the little Misses Gracie Haddy and Dolly Haigh (the bride's nieces), and little Miss Thelma Cooper (niece of the bride- groom).
The Misses Constance and Kathleen Molloy wore frocks of soft blue and pink silk respectively, with dainty trimmings of lace. Veils, the one finished with a wreath of forget-me nots and the other with pink roses completed the toilettes. Two of the little bridesmaids wore pretty frocks of cream ninon-de-soie over silk trimmed with lace. The third little one was dressed in white silk inserted and trimmed with lace, and having a sash of white silk ribbon. Short white veils with wreaths of pink roses and floral croóks were the finishing touches to the pretty group.
Mr. Thompson acted as best man. After the ceremony was over a reception was held at St. George's Hall. Mrs. Pead received the guests in a handsome black dress with softenings of lace, and a black hat with ostrich feathers. Refreshments were served in the supper room adjoining the hall when the pleasant formalities of congratulation to the bride and bridegroom were over.
