Couples are being given the opportunity to tie the knot, celebrate their anniversary or even stage a romantic proposal in one of London's most historic shops throughout February. Fortnum & Mason, who hold royal warrants to both the Queen and Prince Charles, are launching The Chapel of Love – a unique pop-up wedding venue that is London's first-ever in-store wedding installation.

The grocers has long had connections to the royal family, and it holds royal warrants as Grocers and Provision Merchants to the Queen, and tea merchants and grocers to the Prince of Wales. The Queen, Duchess of Cornwall and Duchess of Cambridge all visited the store together in 2012 to officially open the Diamond Jubilee Tea Salon. And that is not Camilla's only connection to the store; her son Tom Parker Bowles has also written cookbooks for Fortnum & Mason, and she joined him at the flagship branch to celebrate a book launch in October 2018.
