EDITORS COMMENTS
A Royal Honeymoon: The Duke and Duchess of York's Blissful Beginnings at Polesden Lacey, Surrey, 1923 This photograph captures the radiant newlywed couple, The Duke and Duchess of York, on the occasion of their honeymoon at Polesden Lacey, the elegant Surrey residence of Mrs Greville. The larger image showcases the royal couple leaving Great Bookham Church on a Sunday, their joy and love evident in their expressions. The smaller inset pictures offer a glimpse into their idyllic honeymoon, with the couple enjoying the picturesque grounds of Polesden Lacey and attending church services. The Duke and Duchess, later known as King George VI and Queen Elizabeth, were married on April 26, 1923, at Westminster Abbey. Their union marked the beginning of a new chapter in their lives, filled with love, duty, and the responsibilities of the British monarchy. The inset pictures on the left depict the Duke and Duchess leaving Great Bookham Church, where they had tied the knot in a beautiful ceremony. The right inset shows the stunning architecture of the church, a fitting backdrop for their nuptials. The other two pictures were taken in the enchanting grounds of Polesden Lacey itself, where the royal couple spent their honeymoon, basking in the joy of their newfound love and the serenity of their surroundings. This photograph is a testament to the fairy-tale romance of the Duke and Duchess of York and their blissful honeymoon at Polesden Lacey, a moment in history that continues to captivate and inspire us today.
