Royal Weddings

In the last 3 months, we have had 2 royal weddings. But in the last 5 years, not one…. Now we have 2! The fashion opportunities have been sooo fun! 

Kate Middleton and Prince William’s Wedding

Kate and William put on an amazing wedding. Kate’s dress was designed by the Label of Alexander McQueen by Sarah Burton. Kate had her fair share in the say of the design. The train was 2.7m in length and looked stunning. She wore natural make-up, a Kate hallmark. Her hair was half up – Half down and she wore a veil and tiara. It took Kate almost 15 minutes to walk the isle and it was obvious William was anxious to see her. The dress was kept a secret until she got out of the car at the Abbey. Then the press release was given that she was wearing Alexander McQueen.

 

The guest list was incredibly long and there were thousands of people watching from outside the abbey . and millions more watching the event on TV, I was one of them. I watched as the guests entered and arrived. I can’t say i was watching to see who was arriving as much as I was distracted by the fancy hats and dresses. The guests included all the members of the royal family, Kate's friends and family and even a few celebrities like Victoria and David Beckham. The king and Queen of Greece were also there. After the wedding there was a party/luncheon held by the Queen.

The Wedding Of Prince Albert or Monaco And Charlene Wittstock.

Prince Albert and Charlene met at a swimming meet in 2000 and then announced their engagement on 23 June.

Charlene’s dress was designed by Giorgio Armani. It was very simple in comparison to Kate’s. After marriage, Charlene became Her Serene Highness The Princess of Monaco; the last to hold the title was the Prince's mother, Grace Kelly. received the title of Her Serene Highness The Princess of Monaco; the last to hold the title was the Prince's mother, Grace Kelly.

I don’t want to sound horrible, but everyone I speak to about the wedding of Charlene and prince Albert, they all agree, she didn’t smile. There are many speculated reasons as to why she didn’t: It was very hot on the day of the civil ceremony, she has a very “gummy” smile, she had recently found out her fiancée (Prince Albert II) had fathered a child that was not hers. (Whilst they were engaged). So there are a few reasons as to why she didn’t smile. But In the attached photo’s I made an effort to find her smiling. The cake was enormous and honestly, quite a feature. Both Cakes, Kate and Williams Cake was also amazing
