Welcome to the forum JALyles. You're right about Alfons, he is a great product of his parents.

Someone posted on there saying they are comparing Liechtenstein to Europe's answer to Botswana!! Liechtenstein like Botswana? What the!! Liechtenstein is the richest country in Europe, isn't it?! It is the financial capital of the world, in a category with a very small handful of other countries: Hong Kong, Switzerland, maybe Brunei and Monaco are in there too, and definitely Malaysia because of Kuala Lumpur. These countries are small, yes, but geez, they are extremely important to the world economy. I get dizzying trying to imagine the IRAQ funds that must be filtering through Liechtenstein accounts right now!!!!
Dam, that site is seriously ignorant!
Onto the topic of Angela and Max
But the photos are awesome.
I didn't know Angela was(is?) a fashion designer. Maybe she designed her wedding gown, anyone know? I was not impressed with her tiara too much, but the dress was nice, what could be seen of it. I have no idea either that Prince Max was so handsome in those days.

I read somewhere that Princess Angela did design her wedding gown.

I wouldn't be surprised at all if she was directly involved somehow in the design. She may have had a tiny bit of help or done it herself, but still, I imagine a fashion designer would want to use such a chance to show off her skills. I looked at all of those pics again and I will say that I am not so crazy about the wedding gown. It is a little plain, maybe too boring, but she pulls it off.
In all fairness, it can be difficult to judge just how much skin showing is appropriate at a royal + Catholic wedding, lol. Although I guess the Liechtensteins aren't technically royal, are they?
She is very pretty and, overall, I am impressed with her general fashion sense in all of the pictures. She is a very classy woman. I never paid much notice to this couple before but I like what I am seeing. I will say again, Prince Max is very handsome, especially on his wedding day!

I think they have to live somewhere close to Liechtenstein, since Prince Maximilian is head of the LGT Bank, which the princely family owns, and the bank is headquartered in Liechtenstein.

Aren't they living in Liechtenstein now? Max used to work for German company before joining family business so it would be logical that they moved to Liechtenstein. They are so private family, we even don't know in what country they live.

That is a rather nice pic. I believe it was used to announce their engagement in 1999.

Yes, it's an old pic. I wanted to do a you tube vid on the couple with the pics I have, but I don't know how to do it.

Prince Alfons is tall I guess he is about six years of age now. It's good that the photographers took the pictures of him and his mother. Does anyone know why the photographers don't get to take pictures of them when their out and about like the they do to the other royals. :)

That's a good question. I think they live really normal lives and have a select group of friends who they associate with. I think they just blend in with regular people and dont call attention to themselves. Also Liechtenstein Princes/Princesses do not get much media coverage.

I found this link to Angela's profile on Wikipedia:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Princes..._Liechtenstein

Maybe some of you guys have seen it but I never did. This repeats just about all that I've ever known about her. Hey, but its something.

I actually created that page on wiki and added the pics.
However, someone modified the format (as anyone can write on wiki).

Good for you BurberryBrit! I often wondered why nothing was there other a redirection to the family. Good job!

Did you check out the latest in the Prince Hans-Adams & Princess Marie thread? Click on the link and you'll see Max in the pic. He's looking pretty dreamy!
