Date: July-August 1986
Place: England (London and Portsmouth)
Event: Honeymoon of Andrew and Sarah, Duke and Duchess of York
Following their July wedding, Sarah and Andrew left Buckingham Palace and took a helicopter to Heathrow Airport. From there, they boarded a jet and flew to the Azores. There, they were met by the royal yacht Britannia and spent about a week exploring the islands. Then, they set a course for England and returned there, docking at Portsmouth, on 2 August.
Sarah wore this floral dress (designer unknown) while leaving Buckingham Palace and Heathrow Airport.
The carriage was reportedly filled with flower petals by Princess Diana and included a huge teddy bear and humorous signs ("Phone Home") attached to the back provided by Prince Edward.
Sarah and Andrew were not as pursued by cameras during their honeymoon as Diana and Charles. They also chose a slightly farther afield destination. Thus, there are fewer photos of the honeymooners.
Sarah was photographed wearing this patterned, white sweater (unknown designer) when the royal yacht Britannia returned to England at Portsmouth.
Stay tuned for more honeymoon fashions in the coming days!
