  Notes	WEDDING McLACHLAN - BATEMAN A wedding of considerable interest was solemnised in the Waitahuna Presbyterian Church on October 8, when the Rev. E. E. Andrews united in the bonds of matrimony Vera Logan, youngest daughter of Mrs and the late J. H. Bateman, of Waitahuna, to Alexander Miller McLachlan, eldest son of the late Helen and James Campbell McLachlan, of this city. The church was tastefully decorated by friends of the bride, and there was a large gathering of friends present to witness the ceremony. Miss Muriel Noble presided at the organ. The bride entered the church on the arm of her brother, Mr John Bateman, and was becomingly attired in a long-sleeved gown of ivory crepe de chine and lace, with a beautiful embroidered tulle veil, attached to a coronet of orange blossom. She wore satin slippers and hose eu suite, and carried a dainty shower bouquet of spring flowers and maidenhair fern. The bridesmaid, Miss Ruby Bateman, wore a very pretty ankle-length sleeveless frock of green floral ninon with shoulder cape daintily trimmed with georgette to tone, her wide drooping felt hat and satin slippers being of the same shade, and she carried a shower bouquet of spring flowers in gold tones with streamers to match. When the happy couple left on their honeymoon trip the bride was wearing a frock of blue celanese satin with hat and shoes to tone. A blue coat and marmot stole completed a very charming ensemble. Mr James McLachlan, of Dunedin, brother of the bridegroom, attended as best man. After the marriage ceremony Mrs Bateman entertained the guests in Brown's Hall, where the usual felicitations and toasts were proposed and honoured.
