This charming souvenir postcard commemorates the historic wedding of the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, formerly known as King Edward VIII and Wallis Simpson, on the 3rd of June 1937. The image captures the joy and excitement of the occasion, as the newlyweds exchange heartfelt glances, surrounded by the grandeur of their regal setting. The year 1937 marked a significant turning point in British history, as King Edward VIII, the monarch since 1936, made the unprecedented decision to abdicate the throne in order to marry the twice-divorced American socialite, Wallis Simpson.

This postcard, with its elegant design and heartfelt message, serves as a testament to the enduring power of love and the allure of the monarchy, even in the face of adversity.
