I thought Madeleine looked beautiful but that shade of blue can give off a "cheap" effect. She looked nice but I was expecting more.

Those are the sash and star of the Order of the Seraphim, Sweden's highest order. Daniel put them on just before he and Victoria left the church (it happened between the time they left the main part of the church and appeared in the exit doorway)

CPs Letizia and Mary looked stunning from head to toe. The dress, the color and cut, and their hair stunning!
CP Mette Marit had a beautiful hairstyle and the blue color of her dress were breathtaking, but wasn't crazy about the style of dress.
Charlene, for once, looked so elegant and right at home in her place as hopefully the future Princess of Monaco.
Queen Rania was a vision. Her dress set off her features and I was afraid her beauty and elegance were going to steal the show!!
Princess Madeleine was very pretty and she looked very happy for her sister!
But CP Victoria, oh my goodness. I dont think I have ever seen a bride glow like that! She is so beautiful and so regal! Her happiness was written all over here. And when she wiped a tear from Daniel's eye, I started to cry. Very loving couple! I am so happy for them!

Quick thoughts.
The Dutch Princess (particularly Laurentien and Mabel) have a quirky fashion sense. Sometimes I just dont' get Laurentien's (today it wasn't too bad). When Mabel gets it (very rarely its great) today was not one of those days. As previously mentioned, a wedding is not a time to stand out with something different. Its the brides day
We need to get over the Charlene thing. So she is not Albert's fiancee. And I agree that she should have not sat with the Kings and Queen as well as Princesses. But hey...she didn't pick her seat...thats the one that was given to her.
Madeline....I agree with the posters that said Madeline would behave and she did. It wasn't about her and she knew it. I am actually thinking her being away and coming when the festivities were hitting their stride so she could be here and it not be about her was a good thing. If she had been here in teh weeks up to the wedding, it would be those Madeline cries at night stories as Victoria prepares to wed..
I also knew that when it was time for the wedding, she would fade to the background because guess what...it was Victoria's day!
How proud did Queen and the King look today? Not losing a daughter but gaining a son. And it was nice of CP to support Daniel.
Victoria and Daniel...what can I say...they looked fabulous and very loving. The dress was simple elegance and that suits Victoria. 20, 40, 60 years from now people will look at her dress and you wont' know when she got married. Its timeless. And they appear to be a very loving couple, I am extremely happy for them.

Amazing day. The couple are so beautiful, so much love there between them.
Crown Princess Victoria is splendid.
Everyone looked wonderful, except Mabel, imo, I didn't get what that outfit was.
 Princess Madeleine so pretty in the blue. I liked Queen Rania's blue-color dress, but cut was just okay. I kind of liked Rania's loose-up-do hair.
Must say Charlene looked wonderful. (Could be next?)

I agree. She's wearing a beauty pageant dress, why?

The blonde in the orange-y gown on Prince Albert's right was Anna Westling-Blom, Daniel's sister

Mabel's outfit explained. She ripped her the rest of her skirt as she was changing. With no seamstress around she had to put on the pair of pants she wore on the plane to Sweden. LOL Johan Friso, does not look amused.

I'm curious about what are the guests doing now  Sorry for this stupid comment, but I always think while the happy couple is "sight-seeing", what do the other guests do?!

Looks like the sun has come out.
Speaking of Mabel, it's one thing to wear "funky" outfits. It's quite another to always show up at weddings trying to distract from the festivities and make a statement. She wore Queen Beatrix's engagement announcement dress to another wedding to, rumor has it, protest the smaller clothing allowance she is allowed compared CP Maxima. It's like she's always intentionally trying to attract attention away from the couple. Did she really think the pants/tutu was going to go unnoticed?

I love the way the dress fits her curves perfectly.

My God - Victoria's dress is stunning! The more I look at it the more I love it. Often, brides wear such elaborate gowns that it can look like the dresses are wearing them, but in this case, it's a perfect marriage (pun intended).
