I don't agree with you at all. It's just a question of look IMO; I think she's a very pretty woman who dresses well (except that ugly hat for PC and Anita's wedding  ). She will be very nice during family events.

They are marrying this thurday and saturday, in Naarden! Is anybody here planning to visit this (small) city on these days?
I onder if the civil wedding is broadcasted on television, or that the scenario is the same as for Pieter-Christiaan, only the religious ceremony live on television and a photoshoot somewhere after the civil one...

How do they decide which city the wedding will be held in? Is Naarden the hometown of the bride or close to where her family is from?

This time they chose the hometown of the bride, Naarden (a posh small city south-east of Amsterdam).
PC and Anita chose for Apeldoorn as the groom came from that city and Noordwijk because the parents of Anita are living there. Bernhard and Annette chose Apeldoorn for there civil wedding and Utrecht for the religious one as Benrhard jr was baptised there. Maurits and Marilene chose Apeldoorn both times, as the groom was raised there.
It seems the two younger brothers chose smaller villages, the marriage seems 'smaller' then those of Maurits and Benrhard jr, who are still in line for the throne.
Untill the wedding of Queen Beatrix all royal marriages were traditionally in The Hague (or abroad, in the country of a foreign princess)

Oh yes it was very cold today in The Netherlands. Aimée and Floris were on Dutch tv tonight in the programm "shownews" on SBS6. We saw them shopping together and they asked the Prince "are you nervous for the wedding" ? He answered that they are not nervous and that the people will see that tomorrow.
I found baby pictures from Aimée from www.koninklijkhuis.nl

Thanks for the info Marengo. It makes sense that Floris would marry in a less well known city as you say, since this isn't a very high profile marriage.

Thanks for the pictures Miss Helen. :)
Did Floris & Aimee give an interview before this wedding (like Pieter-Christiaan & Anita did right before their wedding)?

Untill now I have no knowledge of an interview in a newspaper like PC and Anita, but I wouldn't be surprised if 'De Telegraaf' (biggest newspaper of The Netherlands) has it today/tomorrow/saturday.
A pity they shop at PC Hooftstraat, I thought only televisionstars and soccerplayers wives went there...

Prince Floris is the last member of the Royal house who will get married.
It began with Maurits ( his eldest brother) in 1998, so in 7 years 7 cousins got married:d
