The Royal Wedding

Don't judge me, but I still want to believe in that all time fairytale when a girl finds her prince, and get to live happily ever after. I had only been in South Africa for 5 months when Dianna & Charles got married, however I remember sitting and watching the entire ceremony absolutely enthralled. So 30 years later, along comes William and Catherine's wedding. I took a days leave and settled in to watch. She looked so beautiful, I really do believe this woman is in a class of her own. Every choice she made, makes her beauty shine, she doesn't need huge ostentatious tiaras or bouquets that spill to the floor, this was evident in her very simple hair do, her self done make up, petite tiara, small bouquet and very tasteful, classic dress. The dress was beautifully made and that lace work was amazing. Her sisters dress was equally amazing, how they got the fabric to drape like that is anybodies guess. Catherine looked completely in control (a vast difference from Dianna who looked like she was a rabbit caught in the headlights) and I loved how she didn't change into a going away dress when she left for Clarence House after the Queen's reception, but chose to remain in her wedding dress (so not a royal thing to do). Her evening reception dress was also simply beautiful and classic. So the commoner got to marry her prince and she did it in style. Now here's to the happy ever after.
Till next time
xoxo
