Venue History: Leander Club founded in 1818 is the most historic and prestigious rowing club in the world. The first Henley Regatta was organised in 1839 and achieved Royal status in 1851 and the clubhouse in Henley dates from 1896. As the nineteenth century drew to a close Leander's pre-eminence as a rowing club matched Henley's as a rowing venue.
Wedding Trivia:
MONTH TO MARRY
According to an old legend, the month in which you marry may have some bearing on the fate of the marriage:
Married when the year is new, he'll be loving, kind and true;
When February birds do mate, you wed nor dread your fate;
If you wed when March winds blow, joy and sorrow both you'll know;
Marry in April when you can, joy for Maiden and for Man;
Marry in the month of May, and you'll surely rue the day;
Marry when June roses grow, over land and sea you will go;
Those who in July do wed, must labour for their daily bred;
Whoever wed in August be, many a change is sure to see;
Marry in September's shrine, your living will be rich and fine;
If in October you do marry, love will come but riches tarry;
If you wed in bleak November, only joys will come, remember;
When December snows fall fast, marry and true love will last".
