EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the George Garland Collection, we are transported back to a momentous day in Ebernoe, Sussex during the 1940s. The image captures a bridal party like no other, as the groom and his best man proudly don their army uniforms. Standing outside the picturesque church on May 10th, 1947, love and patriotism intertwine in this remarkable snapshot. The bride steals the show with her radiant smile and elegant presence. Clutching a delicate bouquet of flowers, she exudes grace and beauty beneath her ethereal veil. Her bridesmaid stands by her side, equally enchanting in her lovely dress that perfectly complements the bride's ensemble. This photograph not only immortalizes a joyous occasion but also serves as a poignant reminder of an era marked by sacrifice and resilience. With World War II still fresh in people's minds during this time period, it is evident that both love and duty were at play on this special day. Preserved within West Sussex Record Office's archives, this treasured piece offers us a glimpse into history while celebrating timeless traditions such as weddings. It reminds us of the power of unity amidst adversity and showcases how even during challenging times, life continues to flourish through moments of pure bliss
