I think it was a nice "family" wedding, low key, down to earth.
I love the baby's outfit, and he was definitely the best looking and the best dressed man there
I know the couple is very young but sometimes it does happen that people find their life partner at a very young age. Perhaps this is the case here.
I wish them all the best.

Louis and Tessy look very happy so all the happiness to them both.

Gabriel is absolutely adorable. His face is so expressive! M-T sure is one proud Grandma.

As for outfits, I think Princess Alexandra looks great. She's elegant and stylish but doesn't look like she's 40.

Such a wonderful wedding! I am a little perplexed about her wearing a veil covering her face? Anyhow, GD Maria Theresa looked so happy with her grandchild. Such a wonderful event that took place.

Lovely, simple wedding. It was extra nice to see Grand-duke Jean; we hardly see him anymore.

I wish the happy couple all the best.

Don't disagree with you on this.
By the way, I really liked her civil ceremony outfit. Much classier than the church wedding outfit for some reason, can't put my finger on why.

Isn't it wonderful to see Henri and MT looking so happy! She seemed to just dote on the baby. Hopefully MT and Tessy have a better relationship than JC and MT had.

That's an excellent point. Not that I know MT personally or anything, but after the trauma she experienced (as she perceived it), I doubt she'd want to "pay it forward" in that way.

Congratulations! I think everyone looked wonderful and so happy. I agree with you, kimebear, MT does seem to dote on little Gabriel.

I hope this was right choice for them.. I really think they are too young, and marrying because you have a baby together, is not the best reason IMO.
And the discussion about her getting married in white is really silly, everyone get married in white and hardly anyone is virgin when they get married.. Like henry m. said..; do you really think, Mary, maxima, mathilde etc. were virgins when they got married?? They all had relationships before!!

IMO they didn't marry because of Gabriel. If they had done this, they would have wed before the birth, when Tessy was at the beginning of her pregnancy. The fact they married six months after Gabriel's birth means they took their time to decide they really wanted to marry.

Tessy's wedding gown was very beautifull. But I would've left the gloves at home.
