Sure Westminister and St.Paul's is incredibly grand, but I like the intimacy as well as the history of Windsor and specifically St. George's chapel.

Hopefully, more future royal weddings will take place there in the future (i.e. Zara, Bea, Eugenie, and dare I say Harry.)
Completely agree about your take on St George and Windsor in general, as a venue it's intimate and just absolutely gorgeous and preferable for 'minor' royals for sure.
I guess I'm not having the most articulate of weekends so I can't really explain why the weddings that took place there haven't really grabbed my fancy for some reason..something about the vibe of these weddings somehow. Might not have anything to do with the venue. I mean, that small wedding of Davina and Gary was so fairy tale like, I was blown away by the pictures, even though strictly speaking, there wasn't much to that wedding, it was small. Not sure where that was held and don't want to go off topic. So again, on topic, loved the facial expressions on the pictures of Peter and his new wife, they were luminous on their big day. Beyond that, and Beatrice's hat and Kate's sad face, everything else kindof bored me, sorry.
