I just read on Eurohistory ADss Marie Gabriela and Prince of Bourbon Parma married today. There is only one pic their little daughter Victoria is by their side. There seem to be lots of guest's at the wedding, hope we'll see more then 1 pic. Best wishes to them and happiness for their future together.

Congratulations
I am surprised. That looks like a lot of guests allowed even for an outdoor wedding. Not vast social distancing between the chairs to even explain in.
I hope we at least get one proper photo of the couple (and their daughter) where we can see the three of them facing the camera. See her gown.

According to what Google told me Austria permits indoor events with 500 participants and outdoor events with 750 participants with a 1 meter distance to strangers.

Congratulations to the happy couple!
Though I must admit that the lack of good photos is disappointing. Let's hope that they will release some good portraits later on. But it seems that the couple is rather fond of privacy.

Finally decent pictures of the lovely couple! I like the gown, and their little girl looks adorable. So AD Gabrielle wears GD Adelaide's sapphire tiara, the same as her cousin Princess Marie-Gabrielle de Nassau did! Both her sister Marie Christine and her sister-in-law Adelaide wore the small floral tiara, so this comes as a little surprise. But she wears it beautifully, imo.

Is Gabriella still Archduchess AND Princess or either one?
And what is" HIGHER"?
And is her sister Marie Christine now less royal by having married a Limburg-Stirum?

Only not actually in Austria.
Congrats to the couple, I hope it works out for them and their baby and doing this after a few years means they actually want to and it's not because they feel obligated.

Honestly if it was out of pressure/obligation they would have married before their daughter was born. Or shortly after. Coming from heavily catholic families they would have felt pressure to make it legal as soon as possible. The fact that they chose to wait so long seems to point that this was a choice of their own and not simply to appease their family.
The bride looks stunning. I love the tiara and the gown
I love their little girl in her traditional costume. So adorable.

HI&RH Archduchess Gabrielle of Austria, Princess of Bourbon-Parma.
Her sister is referred to as Archduchess Marie Christine, Countess of Limburg-Stirum. And no she is not 'less royal'. A woman takes her husband's rank unless they hold a higher rank from birth. She maintains her HI&RH status even as a married woman. Its like Princess Margaretha of Liechtenstein. Her husband is a HSH but because she was born a HRH of Luxembourg, she retains her HRH status.

The titles of Archduchess of Austria and Princess of Parma have no legality in the current republics of Austria or Italy. Neither was higher, since both were titles of then-reigning monarchies.
There is a longstanding tradition in Europe that a married woman is styled with the title of her husband but retains her own title even though she no longer needs to use it. She continues to use her own predicate (HIH or HRH for example) if it is higher than the predicate of her husband.
The traditional style in this case, for individuals who use the titles of pretense, would be: HI&RH Princess Henri/Gabriella of Bourbon of Parma. (I am not sure whether the Bourbon-Parma wives use their husband's forename following the French custom or their own forename following the Italian custom.)
But nowadays it is not uncommon for European women to continue using their own titles after marriage.

I am curious about where you observed the use of this style. The European tradition would be to use one title or the other.
