Crown Prince Haakon of Norway & Mette-Marit: 25 August 2001

That is a really good point! I agree that the fabric of the veil looks light but it can't have been too delicate as it would not have survived the pull from her head and the drag along the ground. I doubt it was too heavy as her neck would have hurt! I've not seen any footage of the wedding but none of the photos I have seen indicate it was heavy. Perhaps someone experienced with fabrics might know...

My best dressed were,Sophie,Victoria,Madeleine,and Silvia.

Sonja was interesting but not my favorite.And the worst was Martha Louise,what was she thinking!

Plus I thought Maxima looked boring.

The dress was beautiful,I didn't like the bouquet and haakon was beardless,he looks so much younger but they are the beautiful crown prince couple of Norway and I love their family

I actually like Prince Haakon without facial hair, and I've always loved Mette-Marit's veil, it looks so transparent, like a cloud!

In this video at 39:07 min. you can see them dancing. The music is not the original one, I don't know which waltz music they chose for their wedding.

Another question about MMs dress, is there a specific name for the kind of train she had? She is one of the few brides who had a fantastic though long train of her dress; it was different from other brides who have it like an attachment hanging off their waist. I believe Kate Middleton also had her train in a similar fashion, giving it that rounded feel.
