Slaght-Beaton
A very pretty wedding was
solemnized on Wednesday, 6 Apr 1921 at the home of Mr. And Mrs.
Henry Beaton of Bookton, when their daughter Beatrice was united in
marriage to Alex Slaght of Windham. The ceremony was performed by
the Rev. W. Ottewell.
At 12 o'clock in the
presence of the immediate relatives, the bridal couple, who were
unattended, took their place under an arch of evergreens and
flowers. The bride was gowned in ivory georgette over ivory satin
and carried a bouquet of maiden hair fern and cream roses.
After the ceremony the
guests repaired to the dining room. The gifts to the young couple
were numerous and included a valuable check from the bride's father.
Mr. and Mrs. Slaght left for a short wedding trip to Hamilton and
St. Catharines, the bride travelling in a navy blue serge suit with
hat to match. On their return they will take reside on the groom's
farm near LaSalette.
