On the 10th February 1840, Queen Victoria married Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburgh and Gotha. Queen Victoria wore a white wedding dress made of silk satin, which was trimmed with a flounce of Honiton lace, from Beer (a village close to Honiton, in Devon), worked under the guidance of Miss Jane Bidney (Jane Washbourne). She also wore lace frills, a bertha, and a white lace veil, also made of Honiton lace from Beer.
