EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph from the George Garland Collection at the West Sussex Record Office, we witness the joyous moment of the wedding ceremony between Mr. and Mrs. Reed, held in January 1945. The image captures the tender embrace of the newlyweds, their faces radiant with love and happiness, despite the challenging circumstances of wartime. The bride, elegantly dressed in a simple yet elegant white gown, holds a bouquet of flowers, adding a touch of beauty and grace to the scene. Her veil cascades down her back, catching the light and creating a sense of timelessness. The groom, dressed in his military uniform, proudly holds his new wife's hand, his eyes filled with admiration and devotion. The wedding ceremony took place during World War II, a time of great hardship and uncertainty for many people. Yet, amidst the turmoil and upheaval, love continued to flourish, and couples like the Reeds chose to celebrate their commitment to each other. The photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the enduring power of love and the importance of cherishing every moment, no matter the circumstances. The West Sussex Record Office, through its collection of historical photographs, offers a glimpse into the past and allows us to connect with the stories of those who came before us. This image of the Reed wedding is a testament to the resilience and strength of the human spirit, and a reminder that even in the darkest of times, love can still shine bright.
