This has been written about the wedding venue: DAME ALICE HARPUR SCHOOL, Beds.

"About the school, whose premises are used - Dame Alice Harpur School is one of five independent schools in Bedford benefiting from the Bedford Charity (The Harpur Trust). Sharing the same building as Bedford High School, and known as Bedford Girls' Modern School, the school opened its doors on May 1st 1882, to welcome 58 girls who were amongst the earliest in the country to enjoy an education previously reserved for boys. In 1892 BGMS moved to its own premises in Cowper building in St Paul's Square, Bedford, the building recently vacated by the grammar school. The school eventually outgrew the building, and plans were drawn up for a new school for 350 girls near the site of Dame Alice House in Cardington Road, which had been purchased to house the Junior School. The move to the new site was completed in September 1938. A year later England was at war with Germany, and the spacious new school became overcrowded when the staff and pupils of Woodford County High School were evacuated to Bedford for their safety and the two schools shared the buildings."
