Queen Elizabeth II's Funeral Included Two Sweet Nods To Late Husband Prince Philip

Queen Elizabeth‘s funeral on Monday morning (September 19) included a couple of nods to her late husband, Prince Philip, who passed away last year.

It turns out that one of the hymns sung by attendees was a song that was performed at the couple’s wedding in 1947.

The congregation sung Psalm 23, set to Crimond, and it was the hymn that The Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh chose for their wedding.

In addition, there was one more nod to The Queen‘s lifelong relationship with Philip.

The second tribute to Philip was in the floral arrangement that sat atop her casket.

The wreath of flowers, which were chosen by King Charles III from the gardens of Buckingham Palace, Clarence House and Charles’ country home of Highgrove House, included myrtle, the symbol of a happy marriage.

It was cut from a plant that was grown from a sprig of myrtle that was first used in the Queen’s wedding bouquet.

If you missed it, there was something else in the floral arrangement on top of Queen Elizabeth‘s casket.
