EXETER WEDDING
Mr. F. C. Bragg, M.C., M.M., and Miss Lilian Slader
The wedding of Miss Lillian Slader, only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. P. Slader, Heasley House, Archibald-road, to Mr. Fred C. Bragg, M.C., M.M., only son of Mrs. Bragg of 9, Powderham-crescent, was solemnised at the Southernhay Wesleyan Church, Exeter, yesterday. There was a numerous congregation for the ceremony, in which much interest was felt, the families of both bride and bridegroom being connected with the Church, of which Mr. Slader is a trustee and was lately for many years Society Steward. The bridegroom has been Hon. Secretary of the Southernhay O.B.S.A., and the bride, who is well-known in local musical circles, a member of the choir, and teacher for several years in the Sunday School. The service was choral, the hymns rendered by the choir being "The Voice that breathed o'er Eden," and "O, Perfect Love." Rev. A. J. D. Llewellyn B.D. (Mayor's Chaplain) performed the ceremony, assisted by Rev. P. Passmore, of Topsham. Mr. W. Slader (brother of the bride) was at the organ, and played the Bride's March from "Lohengrin" on the arrival of the wedding party, and Mendelssohn's "Wedding March" during the signing of the register.
The Sheriff of Exeter (Mr. Arthur Brock), President of the Southernhay O.B.S.A., lent his car to convey the bride to and from the church. Miss Slader who was given away by her father, was daintily gowned in ivory satin charmeuse, with loose georgette sleeves, and the under-bodice and cascaded skirt panels of ivory georgette, embroidered with porcelain beads. Her tulle veil was very becomingly arranged in cap-fashion, bordered with a wreath of orange blossoms and ruches run with floss silk, over her fair hair, and she carried a bouquet of pink and white Nephitos roses. The bridesmaids were Miss Muriel Riden and Miss Valerie Smale (cousins of the bride) and Miss Phyllis Toy. Little Miss Smale was in a white lace frock, with a petal tunic of pale pink crepe de chine sashed with narrow rosetted ribbons and wore a pink crepe de chine cap, with clusters of blue forget-me-nots in the plaited bandeau edging it. The elder girls wore white silk frocks, with frilled hems and touches of pink silk embroidery, and white net caps wreathed with silver leaves. All three carried posies of pink tulips and white roses, and wore gold pendants, the gifts of the bridegroom. Mr. W. Parish performed the duties of "best man."
Mrs. Slader (mother of the bride) wore a gown of mole satin mousseline, with panels embroidered in blue and bronze beads, and a satin hat to match wreathed with blue and mauve foliage. A gown of black striped silk atore, embroidered with steel beads and a black tagel hat with glycerine ospreys at the side, were worn by the bridegroom's mother Mrs. Bragg.
After the reception, held at Heasley House, Mr. and Mrs. F. C. Bragg left for London for the honeymoon, the bride travelling in a nigger brown tailor-made costume, worn with a Glenster hat in tissue petals to match, and a mole fox stole.
The wedding presents, which numbered over a hundred, included an oak clock, presented to the bridegroom by the President and members of the Southernhay O.B.S.A. and to the bride cut-glass tumblers and water jug from the Southernhay Wesleyan Church choir, and a silver-mounted triple lunch dish from the Superintendent and teachers of the Sunday School. The bridegroom's present to the bride was a silver chain bag, and the bride's to the bridegroom an oak bureau.
