Mr. Fairbairn Falconer, of Toronto, was best man. Ushers were Messrs. John D. Pyper and John Calder (Glanford Station). Mr. Norman Pyper was soloist for the occasion.

A reception followed at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Bidwell. Mrs. Barnard, the bride's mother, received in an aqua crepe costume with white accessories and corsage of gardenias and butterfly roses. Mrs. Morris, the groom's mother, was in shady nook crepe with mauve accessories, and her flowers were talisman roses and mauve sweet peas.

The couple left for a wedding trip to Northern Ontario, the bride wearing a navy blue wool suit and white Milan straw hat. Her corsage was of white gardenias. The couple will reside at 224 Gordon St., Guelph.
