Picture details the only criticism i have of the bridesmaid is that they are quite low but look at Zara's tan in this picture its all different lines from the type of top she has been wearing looks quite funny

I like the top half of her dress; the short sleeve lace bolero was a smart move on Autumn and the designer's part. I'm not wild about the giant bouquet nor the poofy bottom half of the dress, but if the bride is thrilled with it, that's all that matters. The fact that it rained on their day is a good sign. Many believe it is a sign of luck and with that I hope the couple have a long and happy life together.

Bring on the cocktails...

It's a strange mix of people on the steps. Lady Ella and Lord Freddie are there along with the Gloucester girls but I don't see their parents, Sophie, Edward, Princess Alexandra, the Duke of Kent or Viscount Linley yet I am sure all of them must have attended. Chelsey isn't on the steps either yet we know she was there. I wonder how they decided who would stand with the bridal party.

Wow, I hadn't noticed that before!
On second thought, weren't the bridesmaid dresses a bit racy for a semi-royal wedding?
And Autumn's hair-do reminds me of the hair-do on Spain's Letizia on her wedding day. Both hair-dos just didn't accommodate a tiara very well at all!

That's waht Eugenie read at the service according to the Telegraph:

SONNET 116
Let me not to the marriage of true minds
Admit impediments. Love is not love
Which alters when it alteration finds,
Or bends with the remover to remove:

O no! it is an ever-fixed mark
That looks on tempests and is never shaken;
It is the star to every wandering bark,
Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken.

Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks
Within his bending sickle's compass come:
Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,

But bears it out even to the edge of doom.
If this be error and upon me proved,
I never writ, nor no man ever loved.

a sonnet by Shakespeare. Nice choice.

i dont understand!! my favourite thing about the dress is the back and the way it has so much going on!!! i love love love the dress and autumn and i think that since shes the sprty time anyway, it would have been really wierd if she did full make up, big hair and all that..i dont know

i just realised that everyon (apart from beatrice) is dressed so dull! theres nothing wrong with it considering the weather but maybe that was their decided theme!!

I'm just curious, why wasn't William at the wedding? Is he back on military duty or something?

Autumn looks radian, Peter happy, dress very nice and festoon tiara

Pity that there are only few photos.
What about Chelsy and Kate? Any photos of them?

Bea... poor butterflies

Your Majesty new hat or headdress... And your outfit looks familiar to one from the near past...about three years...

According to this article:

Kate Middleton to stand in for Prince William at royal wedding - Telegraph

Prince William is attending the wedding of Jecca Craig's brother in Kenya.

Has there been any sighting of Kate at the Phillips' wedding?

If you look at the group pictures closely you can identify some of the members of the extended Royal Family including Lady Davina Windsor and husband Gary Lewis, Lady Rose Windsor, the Earl and Countess of Ulster, Daniel Chatto, and Viscount Linley with Charles and Margarita. As more and better group pictures become available more family guests will be identified.
