Princess Margaret is in the big group picture she is beside Sophie's father.

to me was stange see to anthony and don't to sarah because both are divorced, but anthony was in contact with the royal family for many many partys in all this time since his divorce.

margaret was in the photo with all the guest, she was with a green dress but in the photo with the ''close'' family she wans't and anthony yes is, you remenber that photo?

It is with Edward and I would assume Sophie godparents, that is why the Duchess of Kent and Duke of Gloucester are in that one without there spouses. (The other two godparents for Edward are Prince Louis of Hesse who is dead and Princess George of Hanover (Philip sister, aka Princess Sophie of Greece and Denmark.

omg i remember watching the wedding on TLC and I actually taped it. The wedding was simple but elegant. And sophie looked wonderful. I remember at that time alot people were saying that there was a resemblance between Sophie and Diana.

how long was her train?

Ok so I have read that her gown was a sleek white gown and that the coat covering it was a cover and train. Has anyone ever seen the gown underneath the coat? Does anyone have rarely seen images of this gown? Seems they didn't release many photos of this wedding behind closed doors as other weddings.
Thanks in advance!

MichelleVA, to my knowledge no photos exist of the dress underneath the coat. The coat was worn during the ceremony, and she is wearing the coat on all official photos that were released.

For all know they might actually have been sewn together. A good place to ask would be Madame Tosaud's. They were given an exact copy.

Sophie (as well as Diana and Sarah) had a great veil. I loved the way Diana's had mother of pearl embellishments on it. Sophie's hung perfectly. I think that one of the reasons all the BRF brides had very long front/fingertip veils was so that they hung nicely, in a single thickness which both slightly obscured the face for tradition and also allowed the 'crowd' to see.
