(E-135) The Missing Bouquet

Princess Elizabeth in 1947, (now Queen Elizabeth II), shortly after the wedding ceremony at Westminster Abbey, she had her wedding bouquet stolen. Yes, "stolen". The flowers she carried to the Abbey and back to Buckingham Palace were gone. So some of her wedding pictures were taken without the bouquet. Apparently, it became necessary to re-create a new bouquet in a hurry to do the remainder of the wedding photos. Aside from the missing flowers, Her Royal Highness had a magnificent dress which showed various emblems of the Commonwealth.
