Thanks for all of the photos everybody. Thanks for the caps, ~*~Humera~*~. There was a good crowd in Windsor itself. That was a slight surprise according to some people. They kept on comparing it to 1981 but that´s stupid. And not least of all because of the difference in size between Windsor and London. Anyway, a good crowd. There was a bit of sun in an early part of the day but that didn´t last too long. It is England after all. William and Harry received a strong reaction from the crowd especially those in the crowd, young and female. We saw Zara Phillips after the brothers. Someone suggest somewhere that her dress might have been her mother´s at one point in the past. Perhaps. I don´t know. Maybe it should have stayed there in the past or preferably in the trash bin. Wholly inappropriate and not least of all, those boots did not match with her dress. An error for Zara. Her mother did not do too much better herself. It was suggested that perhaps this outfit of Anne´s might be a favorite of Charles. It may be. Maybe it makes him nostalgic since it´s probably close to 20 years old. But besides that, she looks good for her age. The Parker-Bowles' and Shands are all rather striking in their looks. Camilla´s sister looks very much like her. I liked what Laura wore. Classy yet youngish. It´s harder for a person of her age than say for a child to look classy yet youngish.(Well, a child will always look young...) Even harder for teenagers and I must say that Eugenie and Beatrice pulled off their look well. The bride´s father looks like he´d be a fun person to talk with. I didn´t like what Tom´s fiancee wore. I never thought I´d be able to say "She is dressed more inappropriately than Zara Phillips at a British royal event" but it´s true. Amazing. Just amazingly bad. The Countess of Wessex, underrated I would say, looked lovely as always. I liked the polka dot skirt. A light touch as it were.
There were so many famous non-royal guests at the ceremony. Rowan Atkinson, Kenneth Branagh, Sir David Frost, Stephen Fry, Edward Fox,(also a half-brother of Daniel Chatto), Joanna David, Joanna Lumley, Joan Rivers, Susan Hampshire, Richard E. Grant, Trudie Styler, Phil Collins and many more. So many great hats too on display as well. Also a lot of marvelous dresses too. The Queen didn´t smile much during the ceremony or before it. Rather stoic. But after the ceremony, she smiled warmly. That same smile we´ve seen from her all of these years. Didn´t see much of Philip. I didn´t see him smile. William and Harry. They looked a little, well, not anxious, but they seemed to be rather jumpy or bouncy. They must have been so happy for their father. Charles looked dapper in his suit. And he looked generally happy although at times, I could tell he was nervous just a tad. The bride. Well, what can I say? She just looked great. The outfits were beautiful. Of course, they were well made. They fit her perfectly in style, fit, and in being right for her age. She gives hope to all mature brides. The green jacket was better than the cream-colored one. I liked the bottom of the cream-colored skirt though. But the outfit for the ceremony was quite regal and lovely. I liked the smiles that the bride and groom gave each other during the ceremony. The way Charles helped out his bride at various parts in the ceremony was touching. They are comfortable with each other and that is excellent. Just what you expect to see in newlyweds but alas, the course of true love never did run smooth.
