H. Halls, Jacaranda-street, Booval, Rev. R. B. Massey officiated. The bride, who was given away by her father, was charmingly frocked in ankle-length white Sandringham crepe, cut on classical lines with a yoke of white angel skin lace. A white hat was worn instead of the traditional veil. The bride's bouquet was composed of white Arum lilies, intermingled with sacred bamboo; and tied with white satin streamers. Miss Marie Halls, sister of the bride, attended as bridesmaid. She wore a beautiful frock of pink monachine, cut on classical lines. Her hat, one of the early Spring models, was of pink straw and her bouquet was composed of peach blossoms, gerberas, and ferns, tied with pink satin stream- ers. The bridegroom was attended by Mr. A. Binnie as best man. After the ceremony, a reception was held at the home of the bride's parents. Mrs. Halls received her guests wearing a dress of mastic morocain relieved with brown, and a hat to tone. Mrs. Randolph chose a lemon figured crepe-de-Chine and hat to tone. A beautiful two-tiered wedding cake was presented to the bride by her sister. Numerous pres- ents included several cheques.

Notes:

By the time he was 18, David Nunn had four convictions for poaching, according to the Bury Prison Register dated 23 Sep 1846.
The fourth conviction earned him a fine of 20 shillings, costs 13 shillings. It's not clear if the 20 shillings included the costs but either way it was a substantial fine for "an offence against the Game Laws at Chevington".
We can surmise that he may have been poaching to feed himself and other family members but whatever the truth, it was against the law and he was caught. The record describes David as 5ft 5ins, pale complexion, brown hair, grey eyes, long visage, of good health with clean clothes. He could not read or write.
Four years later, it was reported in the Bury and Norwich Post on 16 April 1851, p2, in a list of convictions at Chevington that ... David Nunn and Wm. Death, offence against game laws at Chevington; 2 months.
So, he spent time in jail for his misdeamours as well.
