I've seen Grand Duchess Marie of Russia and her son, as well as Lord Nicholas Windsor and his wife. I wouldn't know most of the Gerrman royals on sight.
Sophie's wedding gown and tiara are........interesting.

The dress is rather unusual, but I love it! The Isenburg tiara is really beautiful, and I'm glad that it doesn't get lost in the old veil.

I think three of them are Sophie's nieces and nephews. They walked to the church with her family. I don't know who the other three are.

Prince Jaime de Bourbon de Parme and his sister Princess Carolina de Bourbon de Parme are also guests at this wedding. Maybe they are also representing their aunt Queen Beatrix.

I think in the front row on the groom's side is a royal couple from Jordan(?). I've seen them before - I just don't know their names.

You are right, they are from Jordan. According to the sermon of the protestant priest, the bridal couple has connections to Jordan and Israel, and they are trying to promote the peace process in that region.

Two questions:
1. this may be totally off base but were the man and woman singing earlier on the upper level singing in Hebrew? I thought I recognised a few words. Perhaps part of the peace process and involvement of the couple?
EDIT: The man who sung is wearing a yarmulke now that I can see him, so i'm assuming they were singing in Hebrew. I think it's great they had things from different religions in their wedding.
2. what were the items the Protestant priest gave to the couple a few minutes ago? One was a book, another looked like an olive leaf...
Thanks!

He's Protestant, she's Catholic, and the wedding is ecumenical (sp?) - a blend of both.
I think the book they received was a Bible but I'm not sure.

Now maybe the question will be answered whether Friedrich Wilhelm (son of GF´s uncle Friedrich Wilhelm and Ehrengard v. Rheden) indeed married Anna von Salza and Lichtenau. Anybody know whether they attended?

It's amazing how the tourists are walking nearby the church, not mentioning the historical ceremony!
