    Save the Date — A Walk at Virginia Water

    The last walk as an engaged couple — Lady Nicoleta, the 12th Baroness of Brattleby, and Honorary Lord Răzvan Vasile (by marriage) at Virginia Water, on the eve of their civil wedding.

    Fortitudine et Honore

    Two days before the registrar at Chelsea Old Town Hall would call them husband and wife, Lady Nicoleta and Honorary Lord Răzvan Vasile (by marriage) slipped away to Virginia Water — the southern jewel of Windsor Great Park, where a Roman temple older than two thousand years stands beside England's largest man-made lake, sheltered by the ancient oaks of the royal forest. They went there to take their Save the Date photographs, the images that would travel inside the wedding invitations to family and friends across England, Romania and beyond. This chronicle gathers that afternoon — chapter by chapter, photograph by photograph — as their last private hours before vows.

    The chronicle is being prepared…
