all my life, i’ve been fearful of defeat. but now that it has come, it’s not near as terrible as i’d expected. the sun still shines. water still tastes good. glory is all well and good, but…life is enough.

Queen Victoria Meme ♔ moments 1/7

“So what turned this into the love story of the 19th century? The day she saw Albert again, Victoria, a smidgeon over five feet tall, stood high on a staircase in Windsor Castle to receive her German cousin, determined to look as regal as possible. Albert approached, and she took in his appearance: His eyes were “beautiful” blue, his features “perfect.” He had a “delicate” blond moustache. Broad shouldered, Albert was five foot ten, with a narrow waist. He set her heart “quite going.” Victoria swooned. She was infatuated.

It was Victoria who proposed marriage just five days later, and on February 10, 1840, in the Chapel Royal of St. James Palace, they were married. She wore a white lace wedding dress, one of the first women to do so, setting off a tremendous craze for lace and white weddings. On her head rested a wreath of orange blossoms and myrtle. The wedding guests noticed the orange blossoms vibrating as Victoria trembled with nerves at the altar.

But her voice, as she said the vows binding her to Prince Albert, was clear. She had got what she wanted after all.”
