Tacoma Society
Of the week's pretty weddings, one the most attractive was celebrated Wednesday evening at the residence of Mrs. J. F. McAuley on South Forty-sixth street, uniting her daughter, Miss Blanch(e) McAuley, to John Pamment, son of Rev. and Mrs. J.M. Pamment of the south end. Interest in the wedding was very general as both the principals are popular young Presbyterian people of that section of town and though few guests were bidden to the ceremony, a large number attended the reception held from 8 to 10 at the groom's family residence, 4832 South L street. Rev. Mr. Pamment read the service, pronounced under a lovely arch of roses twined with green, and the bride was given away by her uncle Oliver McAuley. She wore a simple wedding gown of imported China silk, the bodice of which was exquisitely done in hand embroidery. No flowers were carried, the effect of extreme simplicity being charmingly emphasized. The maid of honor was a sister of the groom, Miss Agnes Pamment, and Miss Jessie McAuley, the bride's sister, attended as a bridesmaid, both gowned in white French organdy. Mr. James D. Smyth and Reginald Pamment, a brother, were the groom's attendants. After the ceremony there was a handsomely appointed bridal supper for 18 in the dining room, where the table was canopied with fragrant branches of the white flowering locust and lovely clusters of roses added their crowning touch of beauty. For the reception at the groom's home which was attended by many friends of both families, the house blossomed with roses everywhere, June's perfect flowers making a garden of every room. The bride and groom received with Mrs. McAuley and Rev. and Mrs. Pamment and a light collation was served during the evening by a group of the bride's girl friends at handsome tables appointed in gold and white, the color scheme in the dining room. Mr. and Mrs. Pamment are spending their honeymoon out of town. On returning they will be at home for the summer after July 1, with the bride's mother at 1208 South Forty-sixth street.
The family members and guests present for the ceremony were Rev. and Mrs. J.M. Pamment, Mrs. McAuley, Sr., Mr. and Mrs. Oliver McAuley, the Misses Ethel, Blanche and Gladys McAuley (NOTE: Actually, Misses Ethel and Blanche were Pamments and not McAuleys), Miss Beattie Gordon and Will McAuley and Ernest Pamment. A large number of beautiful wedding gifts were presented to the young couple.

SIXTH ADDITION
A pretty but quiet home wedding took place Wednesday evening at the home of Mrs. McAuley on South K street, when her daughter Blanche was united in marriage to John Pamment. The ceremony was performed in the presence of relatives and friends of the family. The bride was attired in a becoming gown of white silk. After congratulations were extended, a wedding repast was served and the bride and groom departed on a short wedding trip. The young couple are well-known residents here and have the best wishes of a host of friends.

SOUTH SIDE
The home of Rev. and Mrs. J.M. Pamment, 4832 South L street, was the scene of a very pretty wedding last Wednesday night when John B. Pamment and Miss Blanche McAuley were united in marriage, the father of the groom officiating. Only the immediate friends and relatives of the bride and groom were present at the ceremony. The Misses Jessie McAuley and Agnes Pamment acted as bridesmaids and Messrs. James Smyth and Reginald Pamment were best men for the groom. The house was beautifully decorated, and many beautiful wedding presents were received. After the ceremony a reception was held for the young couple, at which about 75 guests were present. After spending a pleasant evening, during which refreshments were served and a number of fine instrumental selections were rendered by several of the friends, Mr. and Mrs. Pamment left on the last Interurban for Seattle, where they took the steamer for Victoria. They will be at home to their friends after July 1 at 1208 South Forty-sixth street.
