A few posts from other blogs related to the wedding:

 

A post about the invitation:

 

 

♔By Royal Invitation

 

A post that is about Queen Victoria walking two of her daughters down the aisle after her husband albert’s death. I definatley like the term walking down the aisle more than ‘Giving away’ as that sounds like a woman is a possession to be passed from one man to another.
