4/19/2024 - From Queen Victoria to the Modern Royals: A History of Royal Weddings on May 14, 2024

On Tuesday, May 14, 2024 from 2-3:30pm on Zoom and streamed to the Kingsley Room, join us for a virtual program and learn more about the history of royal weddings.

Royal weddings have always held a special place in the hearts and minds of people worldwide, capturing the imagination and embodying the grandeur and traditions associated with monarchy. Queen Victoria set the standard for modern royal weddings. What was her celebration like, and how have all the royal weddings that came afterward follow or not follow her example?

Valerie Gugala, is not only an accomplished historian but a storyteller who has researched the tales of these remarkable women. Valerie will transport us through time and tradition, offering insights into the lives of royal brides who have left an indelible mark on history.
