Life Events
Hilda Bessie Lord was born on 24 September 1921, daughter of Henry Ernest Lord and Hilda Mumford.On 12 February 1945, Hilda, aged 23, married Robert Charles Bailey, in St Peter's Church of England in Broken Hill, New South Wales, Australia.1
Extract from the "Barrier Daily Truth" 19th February 1945
When Miss Bess Lord married Flying Officer Bob Bailey on Monday, she chose 6:30 p.m. as the hour for the wedding, so that the rest of Wicks' staff could be present at the church. Her unselfishness won her a rich reward, for this was by far the loveliest part of a rather windy day, and St. Peter's Church of England made a perfect setting, filled with the soft light of evening, and decorated, with
dozens of tall, flame-coloured gladioli.
The bride, the only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. E. Lord, of Mica Street, made a lovely picture in her lightly embroidered tulle veil and her gown of heavy white cloque.
The gown was designed with a front bodice-yoke of white marquisette, high-necked, and joined on to the dress with petal-shaped cloque loops at either side.
The torso-length bodice was softly draped accross the hips, the drapery coming to an oval centre front panel, from which the skirt fulness fell in heavy sculptured folds. At the back two rows of self buttons extended from the neck to the low waistline, and a graceful fish-tail train was let into the centra back panel of the skirt.
The only jewellery worn was a moon-stone necklace which the bride's father brought home to her mother after the last war.
During the ceremony the bridegroomm placed the eternity ring which was his gift to her above her wedding ring.
A pale pink water lily, mounted with maidenhair fern, held the wedding veil, which was worn over the face as the bride entered tho church, and which was tipped with a tiny cluster of orange blos- tom. Pale pink water lilies and roses were mingled with white roses, daisies and gladioli in the bride's bouquet.
A beautifully tailored gown of heavy chalky white crepe was worn by the only bridesmaid, Misss Verleigh Spangler. The gown was designed with bracelet-length sleeves and draped to one side. On the bodice this drapery was defined by a graduated panel ol silvery beads, which was pointed on to the skirt. The chief fulness of the skirt fell from this point. The frock buttoned on the shoulders, and a marcasite brooch was worn at the high neckline.
Most becoming was the bridesmaids white crepe Dutch bonnet, which was finished at the back with two clusters of flame-red gerberas, matching the colorful bouquet oi red gladioli, carnations, ger- beras, and maidenhair fern.
The bridegroom, who is the only son of Mr. and Mrs. A. Bailey, of Kaolin Street, had S/Leader Monty Cotton. DFC, as best man. Both were in immaculate RAAF summer uniform. While the bridal party were signing the register Mrs. Hugh Fisher sang 'Ave Maria.'
Members of the two families attended a buffet wedding reception at the Grand Hotel. Mrs. Lord, who had made the wedding cake, whicn was topped by a tiny base of rosebuds, wore a soft delphinium blue frock, embroidered in white. Her acsessorirs were navy blue, and she wore a pink shoulder spray.
Mrs. Bailey's smart grey jacket suit was finely striped in blue, and she wore a chic little black hat and a deep red spray.
More than 70 telegrams were received by the popular young couple.
When F/O Bailey and his wife left by plane for Adelaide, where they are spending a week at the Richmond Hotel. Mrs. Bailey looked charming in a frock of heavy crinkled crepe, blue to match her eyes, with touches of darker blue embroidery on the pockets, and a strand of pearls at the high neckline. There were matching pearl ornaments on her snappy little black hat.1
