EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historic photograph, Princess Elizabeth (later to become Queen Elizabeth II) and her new husband, Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, depart from Buckingham Palace in an open carriage on the day of their honeymoon following their fairytale wedding on November 20, 1947. The young couple, who met during World War II, exude joy and excitement as they wave to the cheering crowds. Drawn by the sound of trumpets and the clatter of hooves, a team of magnificent horses pulls the carriage, adding an air of grandeur to the momentous occasion. The newlyweds' honeymoon would be spent at Broadlands in Hampshire, a country estate belonging to the Duke's family. This image captures the essence of a royal wedding, filled with tradition, love, and the promise of a lifelong partnership. The newly crowned Queen and her husband would go on to celebrate over 70 years of marriage, making them the longest reigning monarch and consort in British history.
