Victoria looks great, the red color and her hair style!

I´ve asked myself that too. And there seems to be no proper answer. Yesterday I came across old pictures from the wedding of Christina (the sister of baron Carl) and for it Victoria and Silvia wore tiaras. Actually the wedding of Christina was a minor ranked wedding (well the groom was a baron as well...but he had no connection to the Royal house), but they wore tiaras and this time not
So my guess is, that they make it as they want it...or as the bridal couple has chosen it.
Carl is baron, because his father Niklas is one as well. Baron Nilkas Silfverschiöld is married to princess Désirée, who got through the marriage the additional title "baroness"...and all three children of them are baron and baroness (Carl will keep it, Christina is married to a baron, so she´s again/still baroness and Helene is unmarried)

I'm not so into the royal stuff so I have a little question to do: the children Carl Philip and Madeleine will have will get the title of prince or princess too? Or just Victoria's children will get?

11. The church and the car in which they drove off

12. Bridal Couple arriving at car. Note suspicious-looking man looking through the fence.

13. Bridal couple stopping for more photos at car

14-15 Apparently, the car wouldn´t start so the driver had to look under the hood(bonnet) to see what was wrong. But it finally started and they were off

16. Father of the Groom talking to some children. Perhaps his grandchildren.

17. Birgitta, aunt of groom

18. The groom´s sister Christina and her husband with Sibylla, daughter of Margaretha making her the groom´s cousin. Pay attention. There will be a quiz later. :)

19. Sister of the Groom, Helene Ingeborg

Finally and certainly not least, we have some people who everybody knows!

[Lena]

Thank you so much, Dennis...for asking Marina for her permission and for posting these pics. They show a greater variation and more family members (of the whole clan) than the pics in the agencies.
I don´t know, if she reads it: Thank you very much, Marina for making and sharing these pictures :)

[Dennism]

Thank you, Lena:) for your compliments. Yes, I wanted to make sure we´d get them on here for posterity.

Thanks everyone for all the pictures posted, it looks like a wonderful summer wedding! Congratulations to the couple!

I don't know what Queen Silvia think she was wearing though, it looks really strange to me, and she looks so "covered up"... I love Princess Madeleine's hair, it looks so wonderful! Dream hair to me! All the siblings looked really good.

I read Expressen this weekend where they had some pics and info from the wedding. According to them, 600 guests were invited to the wedding. The church ceremony was conducted by 79 year old priest Ove Theander and 3 classic Swedish psalms were sung during the ceremony: nr 200 “I denna ljuva sommartid” (in this delightful summertime), nr 289 “Guds kärlek är som stranden” (God’s love is like the shore) and nr 201 “En vänlig grönskas rika dräkt” (hard to translate). The reception was held at Falsterbo Golf Club were white tents had been raised.

The menu of the wedding reception:

Entrée: Salmon Tartar with Whitefish Roe
Beverage: Gavi di Gavi, dry white Italian vine

Main Course: Stuffed quail with Morel Sauce and Swedish Early Potatoes
Beverage: Gran Lurton, Argentinian Cabernet Sauvignon

Dessert: Vanilla Pannacotta with Swedish Strawberries
Beverage: Oremus Tokaji, Hungarian dessert vine

Thank you Dennism! The photographs are absolutely fabulous! They are some of the best I have seen of the wedding. Well done and congratulations for posting them. :)

[Dennism]

Quail in a morel sauce and potatoes! How very Swedish. Thanks for the extra information, GrandDuchess. Marina also notes that they sang "Love is all Around" and and "Come Away with Me" which is a song of Norah Jones. They also played the Allegro from Drottningholmsmusiken by Johan Helmich Roman. The priest confirmed the bride when she was a girl of course. :) Thank you, Gita!

[Gita]

You are welcme Dennism! The one taken inside of the church is ver touching. They are truly lovely photographs. :)

[Dennism]

Aww. Thank you. By the way, Norah Jones has a connection to the Bernadottes. Her father, Ravi Shankar is a former recipient of the Polar Music Prize!

[rosalyn]

Any pictures from the wedding reception? thanks

Everyone looked very lovely and I even have no real complaints about Victoria's attire. :)

Thanks to Dennism photos we can now see that it must have been a flower petal or something :o . In Dennism photos there is no trace of yellow in her dress .

Great Wedding, I must say. Everybody seem to enjoy it a lot.

Regards.
