Spaniard's Bay -
Chipman - Roach Wedding

Holy Redeemer Anglican Church, Spaniard's Bay was the scene of a pretty wedding on Friday, September 6 at 7:30 p.m., when Mary Joyce, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Solomon Chipman of Spaniard's Bay, became the bride of Lorne Ralph, son of Mr. and Mrs. John Roach of Coley's Point. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. E. Willis.
Preceding the bride up the aisle were Sharon Pike as junior bridesmaid, Olive Roach, the bridegroom's sister, as bridesmaid, and Jean Chipman, the bride's sister, as maid of honour. All were dressed in deep blue gowns with white accessories and carried bouquets of autumn blooms. The bride, escorted by her father who gave her in marriage, wore a floor length gown of white lace, a shoulder length veil, and she carried a bouquet of red and white roses. Attending the groom were Fred Pilgrim Jr., and Allan Kelly. Ushers were John C. Chipman and Douglas Russell.
After the ceremony the reception was held at Dawe's Restaurant, Bay Roberts, when 160 guests received and where the wedding supper was served. The toast to the bride was proposed by the Rev. E. Willis, that to the bridesmaids by the groom, and to the parents by Mr. W. Hedderson. The balance of the evening was spent in dancing.
For her going away the bride wore a suit of brown wool with beige accessories.
Mr. and Mrs. Roach will take up residence at Coley's Point where Mr. Roach is employed. We extend best wishes.
