Aimee does look more pretentious and haughty than her other sisters in laws. But that just might be her look and her personality is completely different.

Floris seems so humble and down to earth though it's hard to believe that he might choose a life partner who was snobby.

I don't agree with you at all. It's just a question of look IMO; I think she's a very pretty woman who dresses well (except that ugly hat for PC and Anita's wedding ). She will be very nice during family events.

i actually think there's nothing pretentious about aimee. she looks really down to earth and really simple and humble to me, and really in love with floris, as all her sisters in law and respective husbands. the van vollenhoven girls all look so sweet... :) can't wait to hear that anita and aimee are giving new grandchildren to magriet! do you think they will take a long time to have babies?

They are marrying this thurday and saturday, in Naarden! Is anybody here planning to visit this (small) city on these days?
I onder if the civil wedding is broadcasted on television, or that the scenario is the same as for Pieter-Christiaan, only the religious ceremony live on television and a photoshoot somewhere after the civil one...

How do they decide which city the wedding will be held in? Is Naarden the hometown of the bride or close to where her family is from?

I'm glad to hear you will be at this wedding too Ropura. I remember you took some nice photos at Pieter-Christiaan's wedding in August. Good luck.:)

Thanks for the lovely pictures of the couple, missHelen! I'm really looking forward to the ceremony tomorrow! I won't be able to see the church wedding, but I wouldn't miss this one for the world! :)

This time they chose the hometown of the bride, Naarden (a posh small city south-east of Amsterdam).
PC and Anita chose for Apeldoorn as the groom came from that city and Noordwijk because the parents of Anita are living there. Bernhard and Annette chose Apeldoorn for there civil wedding and Utrecht for the religious one as Benrhard jr was baptised there. Maurits and Marilene chose Apeldoorn both times, as the groom was raised there.

It seems the two younger brothers chose smaller villages, the marriage seems 'smaller' then those of Maurits and Benrhard jr, who are still in line for the throne.

Untill the wedding of Queen Beatrix all royal marriages were traditionally in The Hague (or abroad, in the country of a foreign princess)

Thanks for the info Marengo. It makes sense that Floris would marry in a less well known city as you say, since this isn't a very high profile marriage.

Oh yes it was very cold today in The Netherlands. Aimée and Floris were on Dutch tv tonight in the programm "shownews" on SBS6. We saw them shopping together and they asked the Prince "are you nervous for the wedding" ? He answered that they are not nervous and that the people will see that tomorrow.

I found baby pictures from Aimée from www.koninklijkhuis.nl

Untill now I have no knowledge of an interview in a newspaper like PC and Anita, but I wouldn't be surprised if 'De Telegraaf' (biggest newspaper of The Netherlands) has it today/tomorrow/saturday.

A pity they shop at PC Hooftstraat, I thought only televisionstars and soccerplayers wives went there...
