Excited for their wedding tomorrow! I'm excited to see Sofia's gown - I hope its cost won't be shocking yet astoundingly beautiful ; that they found a local designer who makes awesom gowns.
I also have one wish - for Carl Philip to appear fully, cleanly shaven tomorrow! And have a shorter hairstyle like the previous years', the "clean princely cut" which suited him well. I just hate that beard and greasy-looking hair he has. Not photogenic for wedding photos and video coverage as it spoils the happiness of looking at them, in my opinion ^^

I am of the exact opposite opinion. Having a beard makes him look like the adult man he is with 36 years old. Clean shaven sends him back in time like 15 years and he is not an early twentysomething who's marrying.
I think tomorrow we'll see him like we've seen him for the past two years - with beard, which makes him quite handsome.
Sorry for you, though, since that's not your preference

This is exactly what I was thinking today - you wait thirty years and then three come along (almost) all at once! So I'm going to enjoy the wedding all the more!

Not only in Sweden we have to wait quite some time for a Royal Wedding..... there are not sooo many European Royals left, which are un-married. So this may be one of the last ones

There's still 3 in England....and 2 or 3 yet from Monaco....then one here and there from other parts of Europe...although perhaps you don't count those who no longer rule (like the Germans etc).

I would be (positively) surprised if they wore the collars for the wedding. They are usually just worn for state visits and grander celebrations, besides that aren't many of the guests holders of the collar.

Is Sofia likely to wear a Swedish designer tomorrow or is it not a big deal. Kate almost had to wear British for her wedding. Is it the same tradition in Sweden?

Queen Silvia wore Dior in 1976, Victoria wore Pär Engheden and Madeleine wore Valentino so it's quite open actually but I'm certain Sofia will wear a Swedish designer.

Svensk Damtidning writes that they have got tips that unlike previously told, Sofia will have bridesmaids: her sisters Sara and Lina and Frida Vesterberg.

Do we know if they are marrying Swedish Style, UK/US Father gives the Bride away like Madeleine or a Half-way hand-off like Victoria?

She is a very pretty girl with a dazzling smile, but her teeth do kind of ruin things I agree.
But maybe she wants to buck the trend among celebrities and even Royals to "fix" imperfections...capping their teeth and noses, Botox etc?

This fixation people have with teeth is ridiculous. Are imperfections not allowed? 
Regardless, Sofia is damned if she does and damned if she doesn't. If she had had "her smile corrected" her critics would have questioned why she needed to change things about herself. Now she hasn't changed enough, apparently. Good grief.
