- WEDDING BELLS BAUER-DOBBS
A pretty wedding was solemnised at Braemar, Boolburra, the home of the bride's parents, when Mavis Joyce, elder daughter of Mr and Mrs J. A. Dobbs, was married to Edward Hans Alexander (late AIF), eldest son of Mr and Mrs A. E. Bauer, Kingaroy. The Rev. Stewart Lang officiated. The bride, who was given away by her father, wore a becoming gown of ivory satin, featuring a deep V neckline with touches of shirring at the shoulders, and softly folded at the waistline into a richly embroidered pointed cum- merbund. Fine buttons and loops trimmed the backline from the neck to the waist, and the same trimming was repeated at her wrists, where the long full sleeves were fitted into a band. The plain skirt fell into a long pointed train, which was beautifully embroidered at the point. Her two-tiered veil (lent by Mrs G. Smith) was of embroidered Brussels net, pleated into a halo of orange blossoms and was worn well back on her head. She wore a string of pearls and carried a bouquet of white roses.
The bride was attended by her sister, Miss June Dobbs, who chose a full-length frock of sweetheart blue taffeta, featuring a fitted bodice with a draped centre panel, tiny puff sleeves and a double ruffle round the off-shoulder bodice. The full skirt was gathered at the waist into a scalloped bodice and was finished with a double ruffle at the hem, which was stiffened to give a crinoline effect. Her headdress of white Brussels net fell to her shoulders, from a halo of stiffened tulle, and was finished with a trail of pink and blue flowers. She added long white mittens and carried a bouquet of pink roses and blue sweetpeas.
Mr Roy Bauer, brother of the bridegroom, was best man.
The bridegroom's gift to the bride was a necklet and matching ear-rings of paua shell, and to the bridesmaid he gave a gold compact. The bride's gift to the bridegroom was a travelling set.
The reception was held in the adjoining hall, which was prettily decorated with trails of pink and purple bougainvillea. Bowls of sweetpeas and ferns adorned the tables, and pride pf place was given to a two-tiered cake with appropriate decorations. The Rev. Stewart Lang presided and the usual toasts were honoured.
The bride's mother wore a floral silk crepe frock with black accessories and the bridegroom's mother chose a black frock relieved with white, to which she added a fur coat and black accessories. When leaving by car en route for Brisbane, where the honeymoon is being spent, the bride wore a sage green check silk frock and navy accessories.
