EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures the radiant beauty and elegance of Lady Alice Montagu-Douglas-Scott on the day of her wedding to His Royal Highness Prince Henry, Duke of Gloucester, in November 1935. The future Duchess, who was born Alice Montagu-Douglas-Scott on March 3, 1901, is seen here in her bridal attire as she makes her way to Westminster Abbey for the royal ceremony. Prince Henry, the third son of King George V and Queen Mary, was a popular member of the British royal family, and his wedding to Lady Alice was a much-anticipated event. The couple's union marked the continuation of the noble Montagu-Douglas-Scott lineage, which could be traced back to the ancient Scottish and English aristocracy. The wedding was held at Westminster Abbey, the historic and hallowed venue for many royal weddings throughout history. The ceremony was officiated by the Archbishop of Canterbury, and was attended by members of the royal family and high-ranking dignitaries from around the world. Lady Alice's bridal gown, designed by the renowned British couturier Madame Lucile, was a vision of grace and sophistication. The gown featured a long train, intricate beadwork, and a veil adorned with pearls and diamonds. The bride's bouquet was a beautiful arrangement of white roses, lilies of the valley, and jasmine. This photograph, taken at the time of the royal wedding, is a testament to the grandeur and splendor of the occasion. It offers a glimpse into the rich history and tradition of the British monarchy, and serves as a reminder of the enduring allure and fascination of royal events.
