LOVE that necklace.
It's huge and slightly ridiculous looking, and I wouldn't wear it myself - but it's so Gloria!

She didn't attend, because one of her friends married this weekend and she joined that ceremony.

Don't know the name of this tiara but it's awful! The design is horrible in my opinion. Though, I do love this stunning pearl tiara! It's absolutely exquisite!

The first one is a Baden tiara.. the second with the pearls is a tiara formally of the French Royal Family.

They are both Bavarian tiaras. The first one was waorn by Pricness Felipa at her Wedding to Christian Dienst in May 2012. The second in on display at the Treasor of the residence in Munich. Eiter this one or a Copy of it was often worn by Fürstin Marie Gabriele of Waldburg zu Zeil and Traichburg, née Princess of Bavaria.

Yes indeed. The second tiara is one of about half a dozen very-similar-in-design Lover's Knot tiaras that once existed (not sure how many remain intact today).
Lady Marmalade understandably confused the Bavarian Lover's Knot with the sort-of-similar-but-not-the-same Empress Eugénie Pearl and Diamond tiara (see this post) [sold by Princess Gloria of Thurn und Taxis in the great TnT rationalisation and now residing in the Louvre].
v The Wittelsbach Lover's Knot tiara
> Princess Marie Gabrielle wearing it

I really love Princess Sophie of Prussia's wedding tiara. A very elegant and timeless piece.

For her wedding, Sophie actually wore two tiaras - one for the religious ceremony in the morning, and one for the evening reception. The first tiara is from her family and is known as the Isenburg Floral Tiara, while the second one is from Georg Friedrich's family and is known as Crown Princess Cecilie’s Meander Tiara.

Right, I forgot about that. The Meander tiara is definitely stunning as well! She is so lucky to wear two tiaras on her wedding day!

I have seen the pictures too, I think in Bunte. If I still have my copy, I'll scan the pictures and share them here.

Sophie is a girl right after my own heart: if you have access to more than one tiara - you have to wear them for the most important day of your life.

I agree with you, Artemisia, why make a choice when you can wear them both!

Imo, it makes perfectly sense that Sophie wanted to wear her own family tiara for her wedding, like her sisters did. Afaik the Isenburgs only have this one tiara. And since they had planned a white tie and tiara reception, the best option was to leave the Isenburg tiara for the mother of the bride, how would it have looked it the Princess of Isenburg had appeared without tiara? So changing the tiara was the best option. And my, Sophie looked glorious with the meander tiara!
Sophie's sister Isabell wore the wonderful Wied tiara.
Stefan, did you happen to see her other sister Katharina? Did she also wear a tiara?

Yes Archduchess Katharina wore the smaller tiara from the posession of her mother-in-law Archduchess Margherita who also attended but wore no tiara.

Thank you, I guess that was the small tiara AD Margherita and her two daughters wore for their wedding?
How I envy you for having seen them in person  . How I would like to get my hands on their private wedding album  .
