Marriage Notes:
Mr. Theodore Cory to Miss Winifred Graham.
There was a large gathering in St. Mary Abbott's Church, Kensington, on July 18th, when Miss Winifred Graham was married to Mr. Theodore John Cory, second surviving son of Mr. Richard Cory of Cardiff. The bride was given away by her father, Mr. Robert Graham of St. Albans, Hampton-on-Thames. The fully choral service was conducted by the Right Rev. the Bishop of Barking, the Rev. Prebendary Ram (vicar of Hampton and Rural Dean), the Rev. James Weller, and other clergy. The bridegroom was supported by Captain Hanson as best man. The bride's dress was of white satin and chiffon with Brussels lace veil, and a court train of satin. The bridesmaids were Misses Hilda Cory, Lynch-Blosse, Helen Ommanney, Cecely Restler, and little Miss Dora Mullens, who acted as a train bearer. Their dresses were of soft white muslin, and they wore Leghorn hats with ostrich feathers, and carried pink bouquets of La France roses. A Guard of Honour was formed by the Hampton Fire Brigade, and the reception was held in the Empress Rooms. Later the happy couple left for Cranwells, near Bath (lent by Mr. S. Campbell Cory, brother of the bridegroom), the bride travelling in a dress of pale mauve taffetas.
