they wanted to have a summer wedding.
But on 8 June there is still a calendary spring.
As far as I know the only godchild Madeleine has is one of her cousin Patrik Sommerlath's children.I do hope she'll have royal godchildren, but I doubt it as I can't recall her having any royal godchildren like her sister.
So glad it's on my weekend off. Now I can watch it all via the web.
After 12 months of royal revelry that was the Queen's Jubilee year and the excitement of Wills and Kate's wedding, the people of Britain - and the world - have been rather overcome with a new fondness for all things royal. So we can expect more than the usual eager anticipation at the news that Princess Madeleine of Sweden will this summer marry the man she calls her soulmate, British-born banker Christopher O'Neill. The 30-year-old princess and her 38-year-old fiance will wed on 8 June in the church inside Stockholm's gilded royal palace, its opulent interior cast in Carrara marble with sweeping staircases, and ornate columns.
Perfect! It's one day after my birthday. So I can't forget the date.
Archduchess Zelia said:I must admit, I'm not a fan of The Cameo Tiara either. It's not so much that it is a big gun (I adore The Poltimore Tiara and like The Luxembourg Empire Tiara when it's worn right) as it is that there's too much to focus and look at. It's just too much. I hope Madeleine will opt for another tiara.
Not just the royal family, June is the third most popular month for weddings in Sweden, July and August are more popular, but many Swedes have their summer holidays in July and early August, and it would cost extra and maybe be difficult to have the security and other necessary arrangements when it comes to a royal wedding then. Late May and June are also often perfect when it comes to the weather here and during that period the nature is usually at its best with lots of plants in bloom, hopefully the lilacs will be at their best when Madeleine is getting married.Wow the Swedish Royal Family seems to LOVE June weddings! lol
They're pretty popular in the US too - June to August is considered "wedding season". I didn't realize it was the same in Europe.
And in Poland there is a proverb: "Wedding in May, a grave is prepared"In Germany the big wedding month is May.

In Armenia (as well as Russia and probably most post-Soviet countries), they say brides who marry in May will be unhappy for the rest of your life. There is even a proverb "в мае жениться – всю жизнь маяться" (roughly translated, "marry in may, suffer for the rest of your life"). Mind you, my parents married in may and they'll soon be celebrating their 35th anniversary, so...And in Poland there is a proverb: "Wedding in May, a grave is prepared"
