Description

Film of the wedding of Mr and Mrs E. Quirk. The groom, best man, and other male guests assemble and take cars to the church (St Mary's in Horwich) followed by the bridesmaids and the bride. The bride enters the church with her father, and is next seen leaving (the ceremony is not filmed). Photographs are taken of various groups and the guests throw confetti. There is then footage of the reception (held in a hotel in Chorley).
