Invites in London and throughout the king

The bride and bridegroom were to leave in q
day or two for Berlin, where grand reception
was prepared for them.

| The bridal costume of the Princess Roya
was of rich white MORE antique; the lace dress
of exquisite Honiton guipure, consisting of
three founces, the body being trimmed to match
! The veil was OF Honiton guipure lace, worn in
style completely novel in England for bridal
costumes, attached to the head with magnif
cent Moorish and Spanish pins. The dress
and veil were splendidly worked-the emblems
being the rose, thistle, and shamrock. The
latter has employed fifty girls for the last twelve
months. This new style of veil was entirely
her Malesty's suggestion, and the carrying
out of the idea met the appreciation of the
Queen. The cost of this production was about
E600.
The Princess Royals wedding bonnet, which
she had on upon leaving the Buckingham Pal
ace for Windsor, was of white tulle, trimmed
with lace, and lunches of orange blossoms out

ribands. The size is not very diminutive.
The costume which her Majesty dressed in
at the marriage was of peach color MORE
antique, with Honiton lace hounces and peach
velvet train, the lace foances being the same
which the Queen wore at her own wedding.

IN the empire were represented, in the persons
of the young ladies who had the honor of off
ciating as bridesmaids.

velvet.
The royal wedding cake was of colossal pro
portions-fve feet in height. 1t was made in
three tiers, and in compartments, each one be-
ing surmounted with figure of classical char
acter, more resembling work of art in ability
OF execution, than production of the confec
tionery department. 1t was brought to Buck
ingham Palace, in pieces, and finally put to
gether there
Several autograph letters were written by the
Princess Royal, to her friends among The no
DiIity OF her own sex, taking q graceful and
