Read a little about the history of the friendship of Mendelssohn with Queen Victoria and Prince Albert, and the precedent-setting choice of Mendelssohn’s “Wedding March” at the wedding of Princess Victoria and Prince Frederick. My article “Mendelssohn’s Wedding March: A Brief History” is available in the Winter edition of Vermont Bride Magazine, available free of charge all over Vermont. I had a wonderful time browsing web sites to find pictures for this article, and wanted to share a few more here of Princess Victoria and Prince Frederick’s wedding.

I am grateful to Angel B. at  http://www.avictorian.com/ for her gorgeous web site and also for sending me zip files of fabulous pictures. If you’d like to see more, do check out Angel’s web site! Angel spent years collecting these photos, for which I send my undying gratitude! I can only include a few here, but am having a hard time knowing when to stop!

And the festivities in Berlin:
