    The wedding shown here is that of tennis player Eileen Bennett to the painter Edmund Fearnley Whittingstall.

    Reducing the clip's current date range of 1920-29, the wedding took place on 19 November 1929.

    "wedding at Westminster Abbey" - the wedding takes place not at Westminster Abbey, but in St Margaret's Church in the Abbey's grounds.
