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-Whittington. The year was 1945, and the atmosphere was filled with hope and renewal, as the world was emerging from the shadows of the Second World War. The bride, resplendent in a simple yet elegant white gown, beams with happiness as she exchanges vows with her groom, who is impeccably dressed in a well-tailored suit. The bride's veil cascades down her back, and her bouquet of roses and lilies adds a touch of romance to the scene. The groom's serious expression softens as he looks at his bride, and the tenderness in his gaze speaks volumes. The wedding took place in a small, intimate church, adorned with greenery and flowers, creating a warm and inviting ambiance. The pews are filled with family and friends, all dressed in their Sunday best, adding to the sense of community and togetherness. Despite the challenges and hardships of the war, love and commitment continued to thrive. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the enduring power of love and the importance of celebrating the joyous moments in life, even in the most trying of times. The George Garland Collection, housed at the West Sussex Record Office, is a treasure trove of historical photographs that offer a glimpse into the past. This image of the Reed-Whittington wedding is but one example of the many stories that can be discovered within its pages.
