1893 Bouquets Duchess Married Posies Teck
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph from the historic wedding of Prince George, Duke of York, and Princess May of Teck on July 6, 1893, the bridesmaids and their exquisite bouquets take center stage. The future King George V and Queen Mary, both resplendent in their wedding finery, exchange vows in the Chapel Royal at St. James's Palace in London. The bouquet held by the young bride, Princess May, is a stunning arrangement of fragrant white roses, lilies of the valley, and ivy. This timeless design has been a popular choice for royal brides throughout history, including Queen Victoria, whose bouquet is depicted in the foreground of the image. Victoria's bouquet, which dates back to her own wedding to Prince Albert in 1840, features an elegant arrangement of white roses, jasmine, and orange blossoms. The bouquet of Princess Helena Victoria of Waldeck and Pyrmont, the Princess Royal's sister and one of the bridesmaids, is also displayed in the photograph. Her posy includes sweet peas, lilies, and roses, adding a touch of vibrant color to the otherwise monochromatic scene. All of these beautiful bouquets were lovingly crafted by the skilled horticulturists at the Royal Exotic Nursery, ensuring that the floral arrangements for this grand occasion were of the finest quality. The delicate blooms, filled with the sweet scent of summer, serve as a testament to the beauty and elegance of this royal wedding. This photograph, with its rich history and exquisite detail, offers a captivating glimpse into the opulence and grandeur of a bygone era. The bridesmaids' bouquets, each a unique and enchanting arrangement, add a touch of whimsy and romance to this momentous occasion.
