I have to say, following a few others that have posted, I was not a big fan of Chris. In fact, I struggled to find anything in their pairing that inspired me to believe that they were in love and he was a good match for her. I don't find him attractive in any sense of the word, but that is my personal taste and has nothing to do with what others may see. To be honest....I kind of found him to be rather cold and arrogant. I struggled to find anything good to say so I thought best not to say anything.
That being said.....after seeing the emotion, happiness and joy on his face throughout the ceremony and how proud he was to show off his new bride....I am sold. He struggled to hold back his tears when he first saw her walking towards him and when hearing "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face" sung. He again broke down when the Minister spoke to them about the importance of the little things in a relationship that make a marriage. He couldn't contain himself or hold back his affection each time he looked at her. I had tears in my eyes throughout the ceremony, not because it was a wedding....but because the beauty of the feelings displayed. THAT was pure naked emotion and showed me all that I missed from pictures and brief videos of this couple.
I am happy for Madeleine. I am happy for the Swedish Royal Family. I am happy to see that two daughters married men who on the outside may not be what we might view as the "right" kind of men to marry important royal Princesses, but on the inside are everything these Princesses need.
