WEDDINGS
BOLAND-SPRAGUE
The home of Mr. and Mrs. C. W. Sprague, Quinpool Road was the scene of a unusually pretty home wedding this morning when their daughter Miss Eunice L. Sprague became the bride of Roy W. Boland of the firm of S. D. Boland, and Company, Dartmouth. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. Dr. Arthur Huddletston of the First Baptist Church and was witnessed by the immediate relatives and a few intimate friends of the happy couple.
The sun parlor where the wedding took place had been decorated with white asters and clusters of sweet peas. The wedding party stood beneath an arch of sweet peas from which a beautiful silver and sweet peas wedding bell was hung. The the piano Mrs. Lajeunesee, of Dartmouth, presided and rendered the wedding march. Miss Sprague entered the room on the arm of her father by whom she was given in marriage. She was a charming and dainty bride in her lovely wedding gown of white crepe de chene trimmed with moire ribbou. The gown was a French model and was worn with a fine tulle veil caught with orange blossoms and pearls. Her flowers were pale pink roses and sweet peas. There was only one attendant little Miss Ruth MacDonald, niece of the groom, who was the daintiest of flower girls in a lemon colored frock with bonnett to match; she carried a shower basket of sweet peas.
Among the guests were Mrs. D. P. MacDonald, of Sydney, and her daughter Miss Gertrude Vail, of Boston.
After a wedding breakfast Mr. and Mrs. Boland left on a honeymoon trip through the Province traveling by motor. They will be absent about three weeks and on their return will take up their residence in Dartmouth. The bride traveled in Russian Brown crepe ensemble with hat to match.
A number of formal and informal affairs have been given in honor of the bride since the announcement of the engagement and an usually large and beautiful collection of gifts marked the popularity in which the happy couple are held both in the City and Town. Mr. Boland is one of the younger businessmen of Dartmouth and he like his bride, enjoys a wide popularity. [5]
