I case it bothered anyone else why Lenore didn’t have a ring like Annabel it’s because in Victorian weddings it was usual for only the bride to have one and Lenore or “Leo” was the groom there for she didn’t have a ring also before you say they weren’t married the description of the wedding ring is “the wedding ring would be a plain gold band and their initials, along with the date engraved on the inside”

Now we ofc never see the inside of the band however it is worn on the ring finger where a wedding ring would go

Also the author did purposefully leave themselves vague time frames because nobody is going to be that accurate and it allows wiggle room

BUT I do know that Victorian weddings popularly happen in the month of June because it sounded like Juno Roman goddess of marriage and of course the saying “marry in may, rue the day” it was a bad thing

Other popular months to wed were April, November, and December because it wouldn’t overlap with any farming commitments.

Weddings typically happened anywhere between 10am to noon on Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday as those were the best days for a wedding apparently.

Oh and I think it was confirmed that they were 1901 Victorians or close to that time either way they are from the end of the Victorian era

Bonus “Leo” would have had a colorful suit and Annabel Lee would be wearing entirely white
