Thanks a lot for the additional information, melina premiere! And yours as well, Elly C,
I'm sure your photos will be appreciated!

What I also missed - as we aren't able to see all agencies' pics - were more pics from
the reception after the civil wedding. Just like these I've found:


Stephanie, Louis, Pauline, Elisabeth-Anne and Mélanie sitting together/ Stephanie
with Caroline in the background.

I love these informal photos - thank you for posting Iceflower. I agree about the limited number of photos of the reception. There are none in the exhibition that I can recall, but in the Grimaldi centre there is a slide show with some pics which I hadn't seen published anywhere & I seem to remember there were a couple of the reception.

I found a video of Princess Caroline after the wedding of Albert and Charlene but I'm not fluent at french so can someone understand what she says?

Thank you for these wonderful pics. I like the last one (Nr. 7)

[melina premiere]

I prefer the number one with the photo of Princess Grace above them, I like also the n 7

[Elly C]

Thank you Iceflower - the outfit Charlene wore at the Civic Ceremony has grown on me - I too love the one with the Grace portrait- you don't often see photos of this picture

Thanks for these wonderful pictures. I love the ones that feature that very rarely (if at all) photographed room of the palace -- and it was my first time to see that beautiful portrait of Princess Grace (I wish it was mounted on a better frame though). There will always be a dominating reminder of Princess Grace in Princess Charlene's new environment, and I hope she gets all the support she requires.

I read french much better than I hear/understand it, and I'm not sure about the first part. I think the woman Caro is talking to finishes with something lik "comme meme"? Maybe? Native French speakers may be able to help with that. But then the lady says "Thanks very much, princess" and Caro replies "Thank you and have a good day. Good night."

[melina premiere]

I can only hear the end of the talk, it is exactkly what you understood, I hear also meme but meme means ' grandmother, We used to call our grandmother in the years 50 or 60 meme, a not very beautiful name now my grandchildren called me mamy but I hoped there was not the case during this very special event.

Thank you for the translation.

I found a new video from some italian family who obviously was invited or near the couple after the civil wedding.

I don't think they are Italian but Brazilian. Aren't they speaking portuguese?
Nice find, funny how the man is enjoying the fruit

Ok, thanks for the info. Can you explain what they are talking about?

[antonieta]

This is a video made from a brazilian about the brasilian people (3 only) who lives and got the Monegasc nationality at the Royal Wedding. And they are talking about their personal feelings, observations, etc of the wedding and Monaco.

[Smush]

Were they invited? We can see them just infront of Charlene and Albert sitting with guests and talking to them.
I don't suppose everybody had the right to be there

[angela]

Do we know if an official wedding DVD is going to be released? I would love to buy it.

[melina premiere]

only the native people of monaco or the persons who had the monegash nationality , had the right to attend to the civil wedding on the place and was invited at the cocktail after the wedding.
There was after at an hotel in Monaco, a cocktail for the residents of monaco( the inhabitants of Monaco but who are not monegash.
The native people of Monaco could attend the religious wedding on the place of palace.

Thanks melina premiere for the info.
I guess we both would have loved to be monegas for this event
