    Sorry no, Quasymody, the dress is 1926-1930. We do have a photograph of the wedding reception of Dinah Hordern and Harry Meeks at: acms.sl.nsw.gov.au/album/ItemViewer.aspx?itemid=823987&am... By 1936, the long dress and large hat was de riguer for bridesmaids. The wedding above is clearly pretty posh so it is possibly at Pitt Street Presbyterian Church.

    Also the presence of Police means it's no ordinary wedding

    Hmmm... What a mystery! Based on the look of the bridesmaids, above, this could possibly be the Brady - Broadhurst wedding in January 1928. It was considered vice-regal as Broadhurst was the Chamberlain to the Governor-General (hence the police presence). There is a description of the bridesmaids' clothing and a photograph of the bride and groom on Trove. nla.gov.au/nla.news-article16433091 nla.gov.au/nla.news-article16433188 Also, this photograph is part of the Sam Hood collection, and according to Trove, Hood covered the Brady-Broadhurst wedding...
