Albert always seem to be different than the other royal men - they wore their uniforms and Albert wore his morning suit (which is still in dress code). More of Sophie and Anne Is Eugenie's dres designed to look like that at the hem? She isn't, but it looks like Charlene is leaning against the wall. Charlene always look like an interloper

Kate (Duchess Cathrine) looked absolutely amazing! Stunningly beautiful, splendidly regal, absolutely superb!

I just loved when Charles held Eliza so that she could see I love this photo too. It really humanizes Charles. I saw Camilla grab her at one point. I'm not sure what she was up too. Then Charles stepped in and held her up so she could see. It's a tough day for someone so little.

Although I like Victoria's dress, I understand why the commentator assessed her as one of he worst dressed - Sweden's Crown Princess Victoria looks as though she may have stumbled onto the wrong red carpet in this tight peach above-the-knee creation by Elie Saab, which would have looked more at home at a film premiere.

The whole wedding ceremony was just PERFECT! I even shed a few tears when I saw them standing in front of the alter and William looked at his Kate with total adoration. Cathrine and William looked gorgeous, regal and very much in love. They looked amazing together on the balcony...and THE KISS...what can I say...absolutely breathtaking! He is sooo handsome and she is sooo beautiful. There is a good energy and true kindness that radiate from within them. Lovely, lovely couple! I wish them the best!!!

wow vick's looking a little pudgy in the face, maybe she's preggers. speaking of, a friend this morning asked if she'll get pregnant on their wedding night> 3 months? that would be perfect, then they can announce it on the day of the street corner circus and steal their thunder!

I hope dumb Albert listened to the priest's sermon about a true meaning of marriage and importance of love, commitment, respect...I hope it made him feel uncomfortable since there is none of this in his heart for his future wife...and vice versa.

One more thing...besides Cathrine (lovely Kate) the second most beautiful was stunning Letitia of Spain! Beauty, class and intelligence. Letitia and Cathrine are going to be the most beautiful European Princesses and future Queens.

I thought Victoria looked really nice, but now I see her dress is perhaps not the best choice for a royal wedding. On the other hand, Charlene for once is appropriately, even demurely dressed, but to me she looked like a square drab box - nothing stylish nor elegant - just blah. No wow factor. Charlene doesn't have a womanly figure to carry off such an outfit like this. On the other hand, Victoria (who has a waist, butt and hips) would have looked really nice in this outfit. Photos of some other royal guests - Maria Therese looks dowdy I don't even know iof this is a coat or a dress that Zara is wearing, regardless this outfit make her look like she's 40. Princess Lalla Salma of Morocco - I wonder what the Moroccans will think of her attending this wedding given her country's upheaval

Perhaps a normal person would have second thoughts, but remember Albert proposed to Charlene (or his staff did) right after witnessing an obvious love match between Victoria and Daniel. To continue with his farce of a marriage, Albert have truly convinced himself that marrying the New Grace will benefit Monaco economically.
