Princess Margaret & Antony Armstrong-Jones – 1960

A few years after Queen Elizabeth’s coronation, another royal wedding became the buzz of the media. Princess Margaret, the Queen’s only sibling, wed at the Westminster Abbey on May 6, 1960. Antony Armstrong-Jones was the first “commoner” in over four centuries to take the hand of a king’s daughter.

With 2,000 attendees, it was the first royal wedding to be broadcasted on television, and over 300 million spectators worldwide followed it. Princess Margaret paired her Norman Hartnell-designed silk organza dress with the Poltimore tiara. The 1st Earl of Snowdon (Armstrong-Jones) and the Princess had two children and were married for nearly two decades before their divorce.
