Queen Victoria marries Prince Albert

10-02-2026 03:39 PM


Ammon News - On this day in 1840, Queen Victoria of Great Britain married Prince Albert. While most royal weddings of the era were private, small affairs, Victoria, in a bid to improve her popularity, arranged a lavish marriage ceremony with 300 people in attendance. Her dress was a simple white satin dress—with an 18-foot-long train. That day, Victoria began two longstanding traditions: one, of brides wearing white dresses, and two, of British royals marrying in highly publicized ceremonies.
