Welcome to the Princess Eugenie of York and Jack Brooskbank Wedding Suggestions and Musings thread.

You may use this thread to discuss a variety of things that relate to the wedding: possible location of the wedding, the music, attendants, guests, etc.

There are separate threads to discuss the wedding dress and the wedding jewelry and tiaras.

A separate 'Official Wedding Information' thread will be opened when a date is set and the Palace starts releasing official news.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact any of the British Forum moderators and/or TRF administrators.

Thanks for the thread.

I know she has a lot of celebrity friends. I get the feeling here will be a lot more of those types at this wedding. Kind of loving having two wedding back to back. Shades of 2011.

Which of her cousins is Eugenie close to, other than Harry?

I expect Beatrice will be her Maid of Honor, and Jack's brother will be best man.
Little Maud Windsor is her godchild, so I imagine she will be a bridesmaid.

I’ll bet Charlotte and George get to be in yet another wedding :)

Maybe also Peter Phillips’ girls and Zara’s daughter.

That’s for sure ACO. I’d love to see Eugenie wear the Strathmore Rose tiara. It’s all very exciting.

**Zonk** · #7 01-22-2018, 07:07 PM

I think Eugenie is close to Peter Phillips.

If I recall, I believe she gave a reading at his wedding.

I always thought she would be a godmother to one of his children, but since we don't know the names....perhaps she is.

I think the Strathmore Tiara would look lovely but I can see her using something from the Queen rather than the Queen Mother.

I believe the York girls are friends with the Branson family. Sam and Holly have children who could be the right age for the bridal party.

Are you going to have a pick the tiara thread Zonk?

Yes, we are. Just waiting for a Jewel Mod to get online. Don't want to step on any toes. Maybe a poll too!

Thank you Zonk

I wouldn't be surprised if she has a very small wedding party - Beatrice of course ... and possibly a cousin from Sarah's family.

I don't think she will have George or Charlotte - more likely one or both of Peter's children or none at all.

Missjersey · #13 01-22-2018, 07:27 PM

Mia Tindall would be my favorite pick

Biri · #14 01-22-2018, 07:39 PM

Or maybe some grandchildren of her maternal aunt Jane?

Peter and Eugenie being close seems pretty strange considering there is a 13 year age gap between them. Harry and William did a reading of Velveteen Rabbit at Zara’s wedding could you be mixing that up.

She could go the Sarah Chatto route and have teenage attendants. Basically she has the pick of Louise and James, plus Snowdon’s kids, all the kids of her Windsor first cousins and extended family.

Wonderful news for Eugenie and Jack.
They look happy.

I hope we see cute Maud Windsor, Eugenie's goddaughter; the Phillips girls, Mia Tindall and James amongst the attentants.

I think people may be confusing Peter's daughters with Freddie Windsor's. And by that I mean the comment about godchildren. Eugenie is Maud's godmother.

Beatrice and likely Thomas Brooksbank will likely be the MOH/best man.

There are a number of kids to choose. I doubt we will see the Cambridge kids. Perhaps some of the ones we don't see for Meghan, we will see here. Though Beatrice seems closer, Eugenie is also close to the Branson family.

kid options:
-Maude Windsor- Eugenie's goddaughter, seems highly likely
-Savannah and Isla Philips
-Mia Tindall
-Eva Branson-will be 3 this year, Sam and Isabella's eldest child
-Etta or Artie Andrews- Holly's twins, maybe Artie for a little pageboy, 3.
-her cousin Seamus (Jane's son) seems to have a few kids

I wouldn't be surprised if we see some royals and aristos from the continent. Maybe not as many as Beatrice, as she moves more in those circles, but they both have attended weddings and events. Like with Amedeo of Belgium, the Casiraghi, some German families. The wedding list definitely should be heavy in some celebrities, and gentry at the least.

From the Hello! magazine coverage on Peter and Autumn's wedding--
"During the ceremony Princess Eugenie read Shakespeare’s sonnet 116, conveying that love "looks on tempests and is never shaken"."

I think she has a lot of options for attendants. Other than her sister being involved, I have no clue who she'll choose.

Skippyboo · #19 01-22-2018, 10:38 PM

That’s pretty cool. Thanks.

Thank you! I knew I read it in the Peter/Autumn exclusive...but my royal stuff is in storage in Maryland while I am in Alaska!

Eugenie being Maud's godmother is so out there...who even knew she was still close to Fred Windsor. I knew they kind of grew up together in Kensington Palace but that was a long time ago.
