Facts About British Royal Brides

[Denville]

The fact that other girls were lucky and went on to have other children doesn't mean that Margaret Beaufort possibly, indeed probably, didn't suffer gynaecological damage from giving birth to her sole offspring when SHE was thirteen, though.

I never sadi that she didn't suffer gynaecological damage, perhaps she did.. but we don't know for certain.

Who was the first British royal bride to carry a bouquet?

Thank you for sending me on a new research mission. I looked at Charlotte of Wales and Caroline of Brunswick, two weddings that are well documented. I find no mention of wedding flowers. There are several articles on British royal wedding bouquets but they all start with Victoria.

At least most Royal wedding bouquets of the past were seen and documented. The Queen Mother's wedding bouquet (reputed to contain white heather and white roses, myrtle presumably, and a whole lot of greenery,) was laid by the QM on the tomb of the Unknown Soldier at WA when Elizabeth entered the Abbey and so never appeared in news film of the time or photos. Elizabeth's brother Fergus had been killed in 1915.

Kyle, It is terrific that you have a new research mission. Are not the weddings of Plantagenent, Tudor, and Stuart brides recorded so as to include information about possible wedding bouquets?
