The wedding took place at 10:30 a.m. on November 20, 1947, in Westminster Abbey. On April 26 1923, The Queen's parents King George VI and Queen Elizabeth (then the Duke and Duchess of York) were also married at the Abbey. The Queen (then Princess Elizabeth) was the 10th member of The Royal Family to be married at Westminster Abbey.
The diamond fringe tiara was lent to The Queen on her wedding day, the frame of the gem broke as the bridge was putting it on and it had to be quickly repaired.
The Queen was the only person in the UK who does not need to have a driver's license in order to drive on public roads. After her father became King in 1936, Princess Elizabeth began studying constitutional history and law. Her Majesty also studied French, German and music when she was educated at home.
