Thanks for the photos!
The place, especially the lawn and garden, is magnificent. I am looking forward to seeing more photos.
 
The location is so beautiful. I can only imagine how lovely it would be for a wedding by candlelight!

I don't suppose that we'll have photos from inside the chapel, right? I don't think we've gotten them from the Gloucester weddings.
 
at gettyimages are some photos

Gabriella looks lovely as usual.

Very interesting floral headpiece choice for Princess Michael -- the hot pink is certainly eye-catching!

BTW, I'm blogging about the wedding as we speak over at Royal Romance and Mad Hattery -- thank God Princess Michael at least has worn a headpiece, because I'm fearing that the hats may be few and far between for an evening wedding...

I like the top of Lady Gabriella's dress, too, Al_bina. It's a nice way to keep her shoulders covered in the church while still having a fashionable late-summer look to the dress.

Lady Gabriella looks very elegant. The location of the wedding is very beautiful. I can't wait to see photos of the bride and groom.
 
As expected, Lady Gabriella and Princess Michael look regally sophisticated. I loved an asymmetric style of Lady Gabriella's lavender dress and a sheer cover on her shoulders. Princess Michael does an nice job pulling off deep blue colour and huge pieces of jewellery. I agree with Ella Kay noting that the hot pink fascinator adds a vibrancy to a somewhat classical look Lord Frederic's mother opted for. Lady Gabriella's soft curls and Princess Michael's updo organically complete their ensembles.
 
Hmm... on first reflection, the dress is a bit Dynasty isn't it?
 
It's definitely not as modern as I expected it might be -- lots of lace and satin.
 
So it sounds like the royals who attended were Prince and Princess Michael, Lady Gabriella, Princess Eugenie, The Duke and Duchess of Kent, and Tim and Lady Helen Taylor and Eloise Taylor? I'm so disappointed that we're apparently not going to see pictures of them.
 
It is sad for me to say, but I am absolutely disappointed by Lady Frederic Windsor's choice of dress. An extremely low neckline, hooped skirt and shiny fabric made the dress look awkward for me. The situation was somewhat saved by a simple tiara paired with an appropriate hairstyle and make-up a la naturel. I just expected something more sleek and simple ... By the way, could anyone identify the tiara?
Lack of royals is not surprising at all. I expected the Kent family and their children to be in attendance. It is nice to learn that Princess Eugenie attended the ceremony. I hope we shall be able to see photos of Lady Helen Taylor, who usually is a smart dresser.
 
She is a goodlooking lady. But sorry to say, I don't like her wedding dress. To much satin and lace. But the worst thing is the fact the dress is so "low" I don't know how to put it in English. This is not a nice decollete. I am sorry but how can you marry in church and bend down in such a dress.... everyone can look as far as your belly button. No this is not graceful. And she does not need this, she is nice enough. Why oh why do women think they need a "sexy" dress. I think its vulgair
 
The dress is lovely, but the lace arms were a bit much. Her bust is much too small for such a gown, too. Plus, I think she should've worn her hair up. For some reason, brides who wear their hair down just don't look right to me.

Anyway, that said, I do like her makeup, her veil, and the dress' skirt really was stunning. What's all this I hear about Princess Eugenie arriving in an insanely bright outfit though? I have not yet seen photos of her, but the way she's been described it sounded as though she was trying to steal the limelight. For shame! Not on someone's wedding day!
 
I don't care for the bridal gown at all. The neckline is too low-cut, and not at all flattering for her bustline. The skirt is too big. I am also surprised by her choice of gown. It wasn't a style that I expected to see her wear. The tiara is very nice, and I am also incredibly curious about Princess Eugenie's outfit.
 
Are the jacket and the gown one piece or is it a loose jacket just like Autumn Kelly wore for her wedding to Peter Phillips?
 
It looks like it is all one piece it is o.k just too low cut. I think it matched the setting of the wedding.
 
It looks to me like it's a separate lace shrug like Autumn's, probably so she could be covered in the chapel but have bare shoulders at the reception.

There are parts of her dress I am not too keen on but overall she looks beautiful. The main thing I noticed about the pictures is how over the moon they look with each other. Despite the best efforts of one particular newspaper to try an spoil it they seem to have pulled off a lovely, private, and dignified wedding day.

P.S. Much as I enjoyed looking at pictures of the Phillips' wedding at the time the Hello deal in retrospect does look a bit tacky when you compare it to how this one has been done. Just my opinion.

I'm totally shocked by the low neckline of the wedding dress,too.And I totally dislike the way the couple posed :ermm: Personally,I can't find anything regal about them.Fortunately,Princess Michael and Gabriella saved the day,they were both stunning :)
