MARRIAGE OF LORD ROSEBERY AND MISS DE ROTHSCHILD


The marriage of the Earl of Rosebery to Miss Hannah de Rothschild took place on 20th March 1878 , the civil ceremony being performed at the register office in Mount Street, Grosvenor Square, and the religions service Christ Church, Mayfair, in the preserve of a large and fashionable company.

Long before the time fixed for the ceremony at the church a large concourse of people, largely composed of ladies, had assembled before the family mansion in Piccadilly, to witness the departure of the bridal party. Down Street, in which the church is situated, was also lined with people.
The bridegroom and his best man arrived early, and about twenty-five minutes to twelve were followed by the Earl of Beaconsfield in a pair-horse brougham. His lordship was cheered as he stepped out of his carriage.
The bride, accompanied Baron Ferdinand de Rothschild, was the next arrive, and was shortly afterwards followed by the Marchioness of Harrington. Soon afterwards carriage and pair dashed along Down Street, and the Prince of Wales was immediately recognised and his presence cordlialy acknowledged.

Piccadilly, the immediate neighbourhood of the Rothschild mansion, was now crowded with carriages and spectators. The latter were kept well order without much trouble by a contingent of police. These acted throughout with great forbearance, notwithstanding that their temper must have been sorely tried by the persistent endeavours of the throng of ladies who appeared particularly anxious to occupy the roadway.

At the civil ceremony Lord Leconfield, Lord Lascelles, Lord Carington, and many relatives and friends of the two families were present.

The wedding ceremony at Christ Church, see above in the picture, was appointed to take place at a quarter to twelve, and long before that time those who had received invitations to be present began to assemble. The passages and the space in front of the altar rails were carpeted with crimson cloth, but otherwise the edifice presented its usual appearance.

The Duke of Cambridge occupied seat the pew directly facing the altar, and amongst others who were present were the Duke of Cleveland, Earl Stanhope, the Marquess of Hartington, Lord Leconfield, Mr Christopher Sykes, M.P., Mr M’Lagan, M.P., Sir Couttsand Lady Lindsay, Lord Colville, the Hon. E. Stanhope, M.P., and the Hon. E. Primrose.

In the interval of waiting, an allegretto from Mendelssohn’s Lobgesang. The Earl of Rosebery, accompanied by the best man (Captain Tyrwhit), entered the church shortly after halfpast eleven, and took up his position on the south side of the reserved space in front of the communion rails.

The Rev. William Rogers, vicar of Bishopsgate, entered the sacrarium few minutes subsequently, and almost immediately afterwards the arrival of the bridal party was announced by the simultaneous rising of the whole assemblage.

The bride wore a white satin dress, trimmed with Brussels lace flounces, between which were rows of orange blossoms, a magnificent veil of Brussels lace and wreath of orange blossoms. Her only ornaments were earrings of pearls and brilliants.

The youthful bridesmaids, the Misses Euphemia and Helen Lindsay, daughters of Sir Coutts Lindsay, the Hon. Emily Stanhope, daughter of Earl Stanhope, and the Hon. Mary Caroline Wyndham, daughter of Lord Leconfield,. They were attired dressesmade the style of Louis XVI. period—composed of white Sicilian, with long waistcoats richly embroidered in white silk, and ruffles of old lace ; white silk hats of the same period, trimmed with marabout feathers and embroidery. Each of the bridesmaids wore gold pendant with monogram in rubies and diamonds ( each of the four bridesmaids a splendid monogram pendant, bearing the letters H in diamonds and R in rubies.), the gift of the bridegroom.

The Earl of Beaconsfield escorted the bride to the altar, being followed by the bridesmaids and other members the bridal party. At the altar steps the Premier passed to the left of the bride, leaving Lord Rosebery on her right hand, and the officiating clergyman at once commenced the marriage service of the Church of England.

The responses to the interrogations addressed to the bridegroom and bride respectively were given in a very low tone, and then, in answer to the inquiry whom the bride was given away, Lord Beaconsfield turned to his fair neighbour and placed her hand in that of the bridegroom, who. giving the ring to the clergyman, received it back and placed it upon his bride’s filler. Mr Rogers passed through the sacrarium rails, and had just joined the hands of the newly-wedded couple, declaring them man and wife, when the Prince of Wales entered the church and proceeded to the pew which the Duke of Cambridge seated, the time originally fixed for the ceremony not having yet been reached. The benediction having been pronounced, Mendelssohn’s “Wedding March was played by Signor llandegger as the bridal partv retired to vestry.

The bride and bridegroom received the cordial congratulations of their many friends they passed down the aisle to the porch, whence they drove to the bride’s residence in Piccadilly.

After the wedding breakfast the Earl and Countess left town for Petworth House, Lord Leconfield’s Sussex residence. They will afterwards visit Scotland, and thence go on the continent.

The presents are varied and costly.

Prominent among them stand the Rosebery jewels, which were given by the noble bridegroom to his bride:
The Rosebery family jewels, consist of a complete parure of ancient diamonds, in their original setting, comprising a tiara comb, collet, pear shaped ear-rings, and cross of brillants:
