Overview

Evan Morgan of Pontypridd, a member of Cardiff Ciné Society, here records his daughter Patricia’s wedding to Kenneth Haynes at St Mary’s Church Glyntaf, Cardiff. Edited, and with musical accompaniment, the flavour of the event is well conveyed. The bride is seen leaving the house and arriving at the church and there are selected shots of the service and of the reception. There are also shots of the wedding presents (including a toaster) on display at the bride's home.
