1. The wedding dress transmitted a very special message.
Eugenie long-sleeved stone stone dress with long sleeves, long-sleeved, has been embellished with several significant symbols. A thistle representing Scotland recognized the penchant of the couple for Balmoral and a shamrock representing Ireland was a head of the mother of the mother of the bride. The other symbols used included York Pink's head - a nod of the name of the York Princess of York-and Ivy, who represented the couple's house, Ivy Cottage, in the Kensington Palace.
The dress was specially designed to show the eugenie scar of major surgery, it on her to treat a vertebral curvature at the age of 12. She said she hoped that it had helped her and who had helped her and inspire others with the condition of scoliosis. Before the wedding, the princess said ITV: "I think you can change the way beauty is, and you can show people your scars and I think it's really special to get up for that."

6. Granny picked the place.
Before the wedding, the father of the bride,Prince Andrew, It is said to ITV that the Queen had chosen the chapel of Saint-George as a site of the wedding ceremony. It was also remarkable to emphasize those who said that Eugénie and the marriage of Jack's is a clone of Harry and Meghan bridges are wrong. The wedding of his daughter, he noted: "is not the same as the precedent. It's not a copy marriage." One of the reasons for reason for reason was the ideal place for the ceremony, it's because Eugenie spends much of his time in Windsor and it's his local parish.

7. There was a record number of crazy hats.
On the 850 guests who were sitting in the chapel, most women seemed to wear some of the most outrageous hats we've seen for a long time at the royal wedding. It turned out to be a challenge for many women to suspend their hats on the way to the chapel because of the incredible wind bursts that were blowing at least one fascinator at the head of the wearer and the road. Inside, a particular guest seemed to have a peacock on his head that must have caused a dismay with anyone who was unfortunate enough to sit behind her.

8. Sarah Ferguson was late.
Royal marriages manage as military operations with each member of the arrival of the Royal Chronometrous Family in the minute. According to official chronology released by the palace, the mother of the bride,The old Duchess of York, was supposed to arrive withPrincess beatrice Before the groom. Instead, the wandering duchess stopped in front of the church a few minutes behind - but that did not stop him from running to shake hands with some wishes before she went to the chapel.
Of course, Prince Philip is here. He would not have missed it. Great to see him with the queen.

9. Prince Philip is a medical miracle.
The 97-year-old "Iron Duke" (as it is called by the Royals) went with the Queen despite the reports he could skip the ceremony "according to the way he felt" this morning. Despite his advanced age and his replacement of the hip earlier this year, he was straight as he walked without assistance and took his seat directly behind Fargie.What is his secret?

10. There was a WILLIAM and KATE PDA screen.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex felt clearly from Lovey-Dovey during the ceremony. Kate, who looked impressively glamorous and thinner than ever in a raspberry dress of Alexander McQueen and Philip Treacy hats, kept her hand on her husband's knee while sitting with royal companions before the ceremony. They also kept his hand. This, my friends, it's big news.

11. The groom looked positively terrified.
Do not be a member of the royal family that is used to being caught at the camera during the big events, Jack could not hide his nervousness before and during the ceremony. He trembled with his glasses while Eugenie walked the driveway and barely raised his eyes as he recited his wishes. We felt for him when he had trouble keeping his hands still at some point during the wishes. At the moment the couple was officially married, he looked a lot more relaxed but it was rough for the poor boy for most of the ceremony.

12. There was only one ring.
Jack did not receive a wedding ring (Most married men to royal women do not wear a). Princess Eugenie will wear a shade shaped band of Gallois.

13. Gatsby the magnificent played a major role in the ceremony.
The most romantic moment of the ceremony came when the bridesmaid, Princess Beatrice, read a passage from theF. Scott Fitzgerald Classic in which Nick Carraroy describes Jay Gatbsy's smile because he reminded the Eugenie of Jack's smile. "It was soon after she and Jack had met the first Princess EugenieGatsby the magnificentBy F. Scott Fitzgerald, "The wedding program explained". A particular passage in which Jay Gatsby is described immediately reminded him to Jack. She decided that she ultimately wanted to let Jack know how much these words had brought her to her mind. That's why they have a special place (like second reading) in today's wedding service. While Beatrice read the passage, the cameras captured the royal bride smiling at his groom.
He read, in part: "He smiles understandfully - much more than understanding. It was one of those rare smiles with an eternal quality of recovering, which you could meet four or five times in life. He has been confronted - or seemed to face the whole eternal world for a moment, then focused on you with an irresistible prejudice in your favor. This understood you just as far as you wanted to be understood, believed in you like you Would like to believe in yourself and assured you that it had precisely the impression of you that, at your best, you hope to transmit. "
