A fierce northeast storm beat against the bluffs at Shore Acres all day yesterday, but, despite this, electricians were at work all day placing incandescent lamps about the grounds and on the verandas of the house. The decorations were beautiful. The drawing room, where the ceremony took place, was bedecked with lilies -and greens, while the halls were dressed in yellow daffodils. The music room, where a Hungarian orchestra from New York was stationed during the evening, was decorated with laurels. The verandas were enclosed.

The ceremony took place promptly at 8 o'clock in the presence of a number of guests, many of whom came on from New York and from Newport. Mrs. Smith is an Episcopalian, but owing to the fact that Mr. Hanan is a divorced man the ceremony had to be performed by a minister of another denomination, the Rev. J.

Wallace Chesbro, pastor of the Pier Baptist Church, being pressed into service. The bride wore a costume of point de Venise lace, trained. She did not wear a veil. The only jewels she wore were a tiara of diamonds, the gift of the groom. Mrs.

Joshua C. Tucke, wife of State Senator Tucke, was the matron of honor. Mr. Hanan's best man was his brother, A. P.

Hanan of New York. Miss Evelyn Child, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. 'F. H.

Child of Newport, was the flower girl, and Master C. Talbot Smith, the young son of Mrs. Smith, acted as page. The ushers were State Senator J. Clarke Tucker, W.

BROOKLYN af Sy.

SOCIETY. 83,3 st What is quite poszibly the most noteworthy Heights engagement of the year is to be announced formally to-day: it was Arst made known to society on Easter Sunday. It is that of one of the foremost debuttantes of the year, Mr. and Mrs. Sturgis Coffin's daughter, Miss Natalie Coffin.

Miss Coffin is engaged to Johnson De Forest, the only son of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Forest of 7 Washington square, Manhattan. Doe It is not often in the Brooklyn fashionable set that a girl becomes engaged during her first season, or in any event that she makes such an excellent alliance. For the De Forest family are one of the strongest of the New York of the present day, not associated with any of the so-called "smart sets," but a house of position and note.

Mr. De Forest Las been frequently seen at dances in Brooklyn and is a familiar and 1 much admired igure among the younger inch of Manhattan. Of Miss Coffin it is not necessary to say SO very much. As Mr. and Mrs.

Sturgis Coffin's daughter she was presented to society early this season in one of the most representative receptions Brooklyn has seen for many years. The great crush at the Coffins' new residence, 206 Columbia Heights, first opened on that afternoon, will long be remembered. Later Miss Coffin's aunt, Mrs. John B. Ladd of Henry street, whose goddaughter she is, gave her a very beautiful ball at the Association Rooms.

All this winter Miss Coffin has been a central figure of entertaining. She is a tall and very attractive girl, of most pleasing mannerisms. Miss Collin and Mrs. Coffin are at present at Lakewood. Arthur Keeler Bourne, son of Mr.

and Mrs. Frederick G. Bourne, and Miss Ethel Hollins, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Frank C.

Hollins, whose city home is at 22 East Fifty-fourth street, Manhattan, and whose summer restdence is at Islip, were married to-day at St. Thomas' Church, Manhattan. The bride's her bridesmaids were Miss Janet maid of honor Miss Daisy Hollins and Beatrix Hollins, Miss Alice Sands and Miss, Marion Bourne. Alfred S. Bourne was best man and the ushers Sheldon Crosby, Francis K.

Stephens, L. Le Montagne, H. H. Hollins, De Ruyter Hollins and Arthur Henderson. After an extended trip South, Mr.

and Mrs. Bourne will return to Oakdale, L. and occupy for the summer months the country home of Captain Frederick Bugher, which will be near the home of Mr. Bourne'8 parents, at Indian Neck Farm. A further wedding of moment is the coming marriage of ex-State Senator Eugene Franklin O'Connor's daughter, Miss Elizabeth Mathews O'Connor, and Francis Chase Russell, in St.

Augustine's Church, Sixth avenue and Sterling place, at 4:30 on the afternoon of Wednesday, April 29. Seven weddings greeted Brooklyn society yesterday, seven brides and bridegrooms in festal array and the greater number of them with interesting and impressive church ceremonials. It is an important circumstance, altogether unusual, that not one of these bridals was a house affair. All were solemnized in noteworthy manner in the more distinctive church edifices of Brooklyn and Manhattan Holy Trinity, the Church the Christ Church on Bedford avenue, the Church of the Redeemer and the Church of the Good Shepherd being the Brooklyn sanctuaries, while those of across the river were the Church of the Incarnation and the Church of the Heavenly Rest. The girls made young matrons and their bridegrooms included some prominent people of the sets of society--Miss Louise Parsons, daughter of Mr.

and Mrs. Frederick A. Parsons of 109 Sixth avenue, and William Rich of St. John's place; Miss Agnes Louise Dyer, daughter of Mr. and Mrs.

Henry Knight Dyer of 86 Lefferts place, and Dr. James Peter Warbasse of Greene avenue; Miss Gertrude Sargent of Greene avenue and Oscar G. Pouch, son of the late A. J. Pouch of 315 Greene avenue; Miss Ida Josephine Royce, daughter of Mr.

and Mrs. Edward George Royce of 138 Hewes street, and George Niven Klemyer; Miss Jane Luella Barker, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William J. Barker of 634 Putnam avenue, who married William H.

Illingworth of Newark, N. Edwin A. Shewan of 152 Rodney street, who married Miss Edna Moorehead, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas W.

Moorehead of 323 West Ninetieth street, Manhattan, and Martin Stensen Hebert, who married Miss Anna Townsend Burnett of 128 East Thirty -fourth street, Manhattan, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James Ralph Burnett. Bridals in Holy Trinity's very beautiful and churchly interior are infrequent enough to be of very marked interest, and Miss Agnes Louise Dyer's wedding to Dr. James Peter Warbasse, there, at 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon, was an event of great charm, notwithstanding the weather.

Climatically, none of yesterday's brides will be able to do otherwise than reverse the old marriage legend, "Happy is the bride that the sun shines on." But rain conditions, though they darkened church interiors, did not destroy the beauty of the wedding pictures, that of Miss Dyer's bridal least of all. Dyer has been one of the artistic, musical, dramatic girls of society, with a fine sense of color effect and arrangement. The planning of details in entertainments in her home, or elsewhere, has been a forte of hers. And thus it was surmised that the picture made by her wedding party would be out of the usual, would have a something especially and effective. The guests in Holy Trinity's pews were not disappointed.

In the pink and white procession that attended the bride, against decorations of Easter green and white, the eight bridesmaids were seen to be wearing over their frocks of white mull, each garbed with a picture Neapolitan hat, long floral stoles of pink sweet peas and asparagus fern. In wedding costuming this is a new and most daintily charming idea. As seen yesterday it made this bridal party a most effective one. But this was by no means all. This bride had as her maid of honor not a girl of her own years, but a veritable pocket edition of an attendant, a little miss of 5, who in white organdle and a big hat comported herself as gravely as the eight who followed her in the procession's train.

Dr. Warbasse's bride herself was robed in white mousseline de linon over liberty satin. This wedding frock was trimmed with point duchesse lace in garlands, an exceedingly beautiful wedding pattern. It was a princesse gown and lilies of the valley were carried with it. A tulle veil caught with orange blossoms was also worn.

The little maid of honor's dress, In detail, was of French silk organdie, and her big hat was of plaited lace. She carried pink sweet peas. The eight bridesmaids had their white silk and mull gowns trimmed with Cluny lace, and the pink stoles spoken of took the place of their bouquets. The Dyer home, at 86 Lefferts place, a large double house, was the scene of a large reception after the ceremony, from 5:30 to 8 o'clock. Like the church, it was decked in white and green, very elaborately.

The offciating clergymen at the wedding were the Rev. Dr. S. D. McConnell of All Souls' Manhattan, formerly rector of Holy Trinity, the Rev.

Charles W. Homer of St. James' Church, Brooklyn, who married Miss Dyer's father and mother. The wedding party numbered: Little Maid of Honor (5 years old) Miss Agnes de Selding; Bridesmaids Miss Edna Howard of South Orange, Miss Amy Lester, Miss Helen Burns, Miss Cornelia Blankley, Miss Grace Simmons, Miss Mabel Sheffeld, Miss Jean Tolar, Miss Eleanor Hastings; Best Man Herbert Warbasse; Ushers Dr. Paul M.

Pilcher, Frank Cross, Shepard Hiscox, Dr. William Francis Campbell, Dr. Charles Buckley, Dr. Arthur Bogart, Dr. Walter A.

Sherwood and Warren Scoville. The Church of the Redeemer, at 8:30 o'clock last night, witnessed a ceremony of much tasteful picturesqueness, Miss Louise Parsons' marriage to William Rich. The Rev. George Calvert Carter, the Redeemer's old rector, came back for the evening to officiate, being assisted by Dr. Lacy, the present rector.

This was a spring flower wedding. of ingenuity in the adornment of its bridal train. Miss Parsons, who is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Frederick A.

Parsons of 109 Sixth avenue, had five bridesmaids and a maid of honor among her attendants. Gowned herself in white panne velvet and carrying white lilies, wearing, beside, a graceful tulle veil with orange blossoms, she had frocked these six maids charmingly. The maid of honor was in white crepe de chine, the five other maids in pink mousseline de sole. All wore the quaint little bridesmaids' veils fashionable these past two years. But their distinguishing feature was the flowers they carried, bunches of the freshest, most springtime-like blossoms.

In her hair, in her arms, each girl was laden with a ditferent flower. Pink roses were the portion of the white frocked maid of honor, Miss Ada Murray. Of the pink gowned bridesmaids, Miss Ruth Alexander had forget-me-nots, Miss Julia Steele, arbutus; Miss Jean Kirby, lilies of the valley; Miss May Alexander, sweet peas, and Miss Ethel Campbell, violets. The ushers were Harry S. Montgomery, Edward Winslow, Charles Dimm, J.

Merryman Walker, C. D. Potter, Frederick A. Warner and the best man, Pierre Parsons, a brother of Miss Parsons. No formal reception followed this ceremony.

That has already been announced for May 9. There was a wedding supper, however, at the Sixth avenue home of the Parsons family for relatives and a very few close friends. At the hour of Miss Dyer's and Dr. Warbasse's marriage in Holy Trinity on the Heights another of scarcely less importance and being solemnized bridal, some miles away, in the Eastern District, Christ Church, Bedford avenue being its scene. With a full choral High Church wedding, a vested choir of women only, altos sopranos to the number of thirty, and with Dr.

James H. Darlington, Christ Church's rector, officiating, Miss Ida Josephine Royce was wedded, her bridegroom being George Niven Klemyer. Miss Royce is a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Edward George Royce of 138 Hewes street, and at this Hewes street house afterwards a pretty reception was given, the front drawing room being in white (bride) roses, the back drawing room adorned with spring flowers and the dining room embowered in green.

The itself, which is an extremely good interior for weddings, bridal processions massing well in it, was done in green and white palms, Easter lilies, roses. The women choristers were met by the ushers and escorted up the aisle to meet the bridal party. They sang the Lohengrin Wedding March on the coming in of the wedding party, the Mendelssohn Wedding March upon their going out, and while bride and bridegroom were kneeling, the Benediction hymn. Miss Royce had but one attendant, her sister, Miss Ethel May Royce. As maid of honor this sister wore a gown of white mull over coral pink and carried bridesmaids' roses.

The bride was in white crape meteor and old point lace. Her tulle veil was ranged with blossoms and she had in her arms a bouquet of white roses and lilies of the valley. The best man was John D. Klemyer and the ushers Addison Y. Foshay, Carl A.

Meyer, H. Harry R. Randolph, Wilson G. H. Randolph, Edward Ehlers and Frederick Platt.

Given away by her grandfather, W. V. Teed, and surrounded by a large wedding party, Alfred Maben, best man, Miss Marian Taber, maid of honor; Miss Lillian Teed and Arnold Pouch, ribbon carriers; Miss Stella McCall, Miss Elsie McCall, Miss Helen Gresson, Miss Irene Kettles, bridesmaids, and Dr. Edgar M. Birdsall, Thomas Magruder of Philadelphia, George Aschoff and Chester Gowdy, ushers, Miss Gertrude May Sargent of 323 Green avenue, daughter of Mrs.

Laura C. Sargent, was married in the Church of the Messiah yesterday to Oscar Garfield Pouch, one of the late A. J. Pouch's sons. This was pre-eminently the weddings of the day for effect and care of detail.

In color tone It was white with here and there a touch of green, and not a little pageantry distinguished it. Behind the pews in the Messiah reserved for the family there were four pews on each side set apart for the girls of Miss Sargent's scrority, Kappa Phi. The ribbon children inclosed these, as the first incident of the ceremonial. Arnold Pouch, the boy, a son of Alonzo Pouch, was garbed in black broadcloth, the girl, Lilian Teed, a cousin of the bride, was in a little frock of white lawn and lace. Following these children down the aisle came ushers and bridesmaids, the procession ending with the bride on her grandfather's arm.

These maids were gowned very effectively: Miss Taber, as the maid of honor, was in a frock of white net and lace over white mousseline de soie and taffeta. This gown had a lacy effect and was substantially, different from the bridesmaids' were of white fish net. over white mousseline de soie and taffeta, and thus showed the net effect plainly. Miss Taber had, beside, a white lace hat and carried an arm bouquet of white carnations and fern. The bridesmaids had bunches of white carnations tied together with white tulle, and they wore picture hats of maline and green foliage.

White crepe de chine, a princess gown, was the bride's wedding garb, a bridal frock of very long train. She wore a tulle veil with real orange blossoms, and carried lilies of the valley with white maline and white ribbons. A purely family reception followed at the Sargent residence. The reception there was followed by an elaborate wedding supper. The bridal couple have departed for Washington on a bridal visit and will sail for England April 24, on the Cedric.

The groom, who is a wholesale woolen merchant of London, has already prepared a home for his bride in his native city that awaits their coming. He first met the now Mrs. Reynolds last summer during a visit she paid to Margate, England, in company with her uncle, Captain Kane. In a party of sixteen young women at the Beresford she was the only American, and it is whispered that in the brief time of her stay she had three different proposals of marriage, one of them from the man who last evening made her his wife. Germley A very pretty wedding was that of Frank P.

Gormley of Jersey City and Miss Sarah Gorman of the New Lots section of this borough, yesterday afternoon. The ceremony took place at St. Gabriel's Church, New Lots road and Linwood street. The church was beautifully decorated with lilies of the valley and orchids. The Rev.

Father Ahearn, the pastor, officiated. The bride looked radiant in El gown of white crepe de chine and Irish point lace. She wore a picture hat and carried a bouquet of lilies of the valley. The bridesmaid was Miss Winifred Gorman, a sister of the bride, and the best man was Richard Gormley, brother of the groom. After the ceremony a reception was tendered the bride and groom at the home of the bride's parents, Essex street and Sutter avenue, after which the happy couple left for a trip through the South.
