Notes

The bride and groom at this wartime wedding are cutting their wedding cake made by a firm called C. Kunzle Ltd. The cake was made of chocolate because the couple did not want to use their sugar rations and it included fruit provided by the bride. A friend in the police force took this photograph because it was difficult to hire a photographer at this time.
