Social History
1932 Table Talk
TEAGUE—CUMMINS
AN exquisite sheaf of lilies and camellias proved a very charming finish to the bridal toilette of Miss Eileen Mary Cummins, whose marriage to Mr Willis Ernest Teague, the well-known tennis player, was celebrated at St. Michael’s
Church, North Melbourne on Saturday, July 30 The Rev. Father O’Sullivan officiated, and the bride was given away
by her father.
She is the eldest daughter of Mr George Cummins, 409 Dryburgh Street, North Melbourne, and the bridegroom is the second son of Mr and Mrs George William Teague, 14 Regent Street, Elsternwick.
The clinging bridal gown of magnolia tinted crepe romaine was fashioned with a long tight fitting bodice, pin-tucked to the knees, and finished with long sleeves. A band of hand faggotted
embroidery enhanced the neck line. Over the full flared skirt, which was set in graceful panels, fell a handsome veil of Limerick lace, mounted on tulle, and held in place by a coronet of orange blossom. The bride’s sister, Miss Mary Cummins, as bridesmaid, looked very charming in a frock of Edelweiss lace and georgette. Sable fur edged the matching shoulder cape, which terminated in a bow at the waistline, and a lace cap trimmed with autumn tinted leaves and berries was on her hair. She carried a bouquet of tawny shaded flowers.
Mr George Holloway acted as best man.
A reception afterwards took place at Carlyons Hotel, Spencer Street, at which only immediate relatives of the bride and bridegroom were present. The bridegroom’s mother wore a gown of black flat crepe, printed with a floral design, and a hat to match. Her bouquet was of pink carnations.
The bride and bridegroom will make their future home at 66 Orrong Crescent, North Caulfield.
