Thanks for the photos!
Did anyone notice that Furstin Angela and Princess Ursula are wearing the same outfit?
The neckline and sleeves are like Mary's but somehow this dress is prettier.
It's also nice to see Princess Angela, I wished she'd wear a hat at least once and something that isn't black or grey.

Any further details on the couple? (e.g. how they met, what Princess Maria-Anna does for a living...)

A copy? Ypu think it was designed with a photo of Mary´s dress next to it  ? There are simularities indeed, the neckline for example, but the design is pretty basic.

So two have married royal ( or princely ?). Regardless, I'm certain they are happy with their choices.
Magnik, thanks for the info. I always thought that Sophie married first but I was wrong. :)

But is similiar in style to the gowns worn by all of her sisters. They all have worn this floral tiara and the same 200 years old veil.

Yes, and Marie-Anna's dress is much more refined.

The title of Fürst distinguishes the Head of a Princely House from the other princes of the family. The Fürstin is his wife.

Not always. For example in the german noble Family all members bear the Title Fürst/Fürstin. And in the Families Urach and Hohenberg the Head is Herzog (Duke) and the other members are Fürst/Fürstin.

When I was in Germany, I saw a report of the wedding on the news. The location looked very regal and beautiful.
They showed an interview with Duke Franz, the bride's uncle, and he seemed very pleased and charming.
I wouldn't necessarily call the Bavarian Royal House a minor royal, but non-reigning. They have a history that goes back as far as the Hapsburgs and in the Middle Ages they were considered more powerful than the Hapsburgs. For awhile Bavarian duchesses were very prized brides of the largest houses in Europe.

You are right. There are at least two Bavarian princesses marrying kings (or future kings) of France for example: Isabella of Bavaria married Charles VI in 1385, and Maria Christina of Bavaria married the heir of Louis XIV in 1680.
Back to Princess Maria-Anna: very nice dress and tiara!!
