Weddings
Basset-Chavanne
The marriage of Marthe, eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George Chavanne, of St. Boniface, to Mr. Joseph Basset, of Saint Claude, Man., son of Mrs. J. Basset and the late Mr. Basset, of the same place, was solemnized Wednesday at 7.30 a.m. in the sacristy of St. Boniface cathedral. Right Rev. Monsigner W.L. Jubinville celebrated the nuptial mass and the wedding ceremony. The altar was decorated with palms and bouquets of autumn blooms.
The bride, who was given in marriage by her father, wore a model gown of tropical blue French crepe, made on simple lines, the front panel below the knees showing wide shirring emerging into flares at the hemline. The waistline was belted of the material to finish into a buckle at the front. The softly draped bodice showed a vestee of blue cut velvet spreading into a wide jabot and trimmed with rhinestone buttons. The sleeves were dolman and executed in the cut velvet, to finish into a tight cuff. She wore a small turban of velvet offset with grey accessories. She carried a bouquet of Talisman roses and lilies of the valley. Both bride and bridegroom were unattended.
A reception was held at the home of the bride?s parents, Dollard boulevard, St. Boniface. The bride?s table was graced with the lovely wedding cake offset with tall ivory tapers in silver holders. Later Mr. and Mrs. Basset left by motor for Saint Claude, Man., where they will in the future reside.
Mrs. Chavanne, mother of the bride, wore an afternoon gown of Manoa brown French crepe, cut on simple lines, with a hat of matching brown felt and brown accessories. She wore a corsage of Briercliffe roses.
