I agree. That is one of my favourite wedding dresses. I love everything about it.
 
I like the wedding dress worn by Barbara Cano when she married Bruno Gomez Acebo.

Simple and elegant!!!

I agree. It became one of my favorites when I first saw it. I've always been a fan of her mother's wedding gown as well. Princess Margaret's wedding was the very first royal wedding I ever saw. I've been a royal fan ever since:D
 
Wedding dress worn by Patricia Meredith Eastwood upon her marriage to Norton Knatchbull, Lord Romsey. He is the grandson of Lord Louis Mountbatten.

Oh i like that you posted pdas1201!!! it´s a beautiful dress

About the poll, i like tht of Lady Chatto, simple, but elegant
 
While working on the Princess Brides newsletter, I came across one more dress that I really like that isn't usually discussed, particularly for its simplicity: the one worn by Angela Brown when she married Prince Maximilian in January 2000 in New York City.

Favorites:

1. Lady Sarah Chatto-Not only my favorite out of this list, but one of my favorites of all time. So simple and elegant.

2. Princess Alexandra of Berleburg-I like the layered effect on the sleeves and the hem.

3. Princess Marilene-I like the two-piece style and think it suits her.

Least favorite:

Princess Annette-I think her dress is so frumpy! Both the dress and the veil just look too big, and the length is weird to me, like the hem should come down a few more inches. She seems to be a rather petite woman ,and this just overpowers her.
 
My favorite of those listed would by Lady Sarah's too. But what I really liked were her bridesmaids dresses, so simple and elegant, and same w/ their hair. I love how in photos (scanned from I Do...100 Years of Wedding Fashion), you can see the lovely white color of the dress contrasts and stands out against the grayness of the pavement and London weather. I guess you wouldn't expect less from someone who had served as chief bridesmaid/attendent at two previous important royal weddings.

This isn't one of the choices, but I recently came across the dress worn by Princess Rahma of Jordan (the duaghter of Prince Hassan, King Hussein's brother) and I loved it. This is the only picture I've found so far.

I Have to agree with you here. Lady sarah's dress and the bridesmaids dresses were beautiful- simple yet classic and the wreaths in their hair looked gorgeous. The whole Wedding was beautiful and she is one of my favourites.
I also thought Princess Mary looked beautiful but I was dissapointed by her flowers.
 
My favourites are the dress of Alexandra of Berleburg (just love the sleeves) and the one of Lady Sarah Chatto (such simple elegance...beautiful!).
I would like to add two dresses to the collection shown at this thread, btw. These two princesses weren't married at the time the thread was openened, but they defintely deserve to be in it (since they both have a lovely dress, imo): the two Van Vollhoven princesses Anita and Aimee!

Fabiola 's dress is the most elegant and beautifull for me even after 45 years
 
I love Lady Sarah's and Lady Helen Windsor. They are two of my all time faves.
 
I like Princess Noor of Jordan's gown the most! Besides, I like Infanta Cristina of Spain's gown, White, simple and elegant, and they are just my dreamlike wedding dress!
 
I still have the article from People magazine about Lady Sarah's wedding. Such a simple but elegant Summer wedding, even the young bridesmaids were lovely. I think her "tiara" was actually a pair of earrings from her mother.

Chotilde looks nice except for those hideous shoes!!
 
Lady Sarah Chatto, hands down

Alexandra von Furstenberg, nee Miller. It just stunned me the first time I saw it. I gasped, and even now it makes me want to rush out and get married. It just screamed BRIDE. I wish I could post a photo.

I have never seen such a tiny waist!
 
I absolutely loved Sarah Chatto's wedding dress. I loved the simplicity of the dress and really liked the neckline and sleeves.

CaliforniaDreamin, here is a link where you can see some pictures of Alexandra in her dress The Newlyweds
 
Lady Helen Taylor's wedding dress was a lovely one, as was Lady Linley's. As for Lady Davina Lewis, she looked more like a bridesmaid than a bride. Her sister's wedding dress was lovely but I feel that her veil was way too low down and too far back on her head. It would have looked miles better coming from the tiara as has been the case with previous royal weddings.
