St. Matthew's Church was crowded to excess yesterday afternoon by visitors anxious to witness the celebration of the nuptials of Miss Yates, of the Upper Plain, and Mr Clapham, a gentleman who occupies a position in the Postal Department at Wellington. The bride, who was pronounced to be one of the prettiest centres of any marriage group which had yet appeared in the church, was charmingly attired in oriental lace and cream cashmere, wearing also gold ornaments, the gift of the bridegroom's mother. The four principal bridesmaids, Miss Annie Yates, Miss Amy Yates, and Misses Clapham (2), wore garnet brooches, set in gold, the gift of the bridegroom, and were attired in oriental lace dresses trimmed with pale blue ribbon. The ceremoney was performed by the Rev W E Paige, Mrs Paige kindly playing "The Wedding March". The party, numbering between sixty and seventy then drove to Mrs Yates' residence on the Upper Plain, where a sumptuous breakfast was followed by a ball, which only terminated with the appearance of daylight this morning. To-day the happy couple proceed to Rangitikei, having arranged to spend their honeymoon in that district.
