Prince Philippe, Duke of Brabant and Mathilde d'Udekem d'Acoz: 4 December 1999

What a lovely ceremony. I remember I had it fully followed to the TV, Mathilde was so young, so touching so innocent, a lovely girl, a real lady, and now a great Queen.

What a difference between now and then... Even at their wedding they don't look as close and sweet as they do now
I really love those two, and their wedding was fabulous

Daniel Ost, the man who did the flower arrangements at the wedding, was interviewed in the TV program Royalty.
He told that Mathilde wanted red flowers and Paola wanted white. So he used red flowers for the altar and white for the rest of the cathedral.
The giant bride bouquet wasn't made by him but by the florist of the court. He didn't like it, it was too heavy it weighed 3kg and he didn't like that people thaught he made it.
The downside of doing the flower arrangements for the princely weddings (also Laurent and Claire) was that he got the name of being expensive.
He also did the flower arrangements for Fabiola's funeral.

Is there any link or video of the entire wedding?

She looks very nice, as a person and quite pretty but not a dazzler. But I LOVE the train.. its So big and so white

Was it a dinner or a lunch ?

I don't think so. At least, I've never been able to find one, only bits of it.

I like the procession of the bride walking down the aisle. The red dresses of the little girls was a beautiful choice of color for a December wedding.

King Philippe and Queen Mathilde remember their wedding day 20 years ago and talk about their married life over two decades.

Rare footage of the wedding can be seen in the link below:

Unfortunately the footage does not include the entire wedding mass. It ends abruptly shortly after the communion, so we can't see the final blessing or the couple leaving the cathedral.
