    Crown Prince Gustaf Adolf of Sweden and Lady Louise Mountbatten - 1923

    Lady Louise Mountbatten, the bride, is dwarfed by the imposing height and figure of the groom. Crown Prince Gustaf Adolf must have been a big man.

    The Duke of Windsor and Wallis Simpson - 3 June 1937

    Oh my, people do have strong opinions on the "ghastly" wedding dress. What can I say......a bad chose can last a lifetime......hahaha...and I doubt she chose the dress to make a statement...but who knows.. you may be...right.

    Prince George, Duke of Kent and Princess Marina of Greece & Denmark - 1934

    Princess Marina of Greece & Denmark, she's a classic beauty and so is her beautiful daughter, Princess Alexandra. A perfect bride for a prince, which makes me question, why the many extramarital affairs on Prince George's part? Was it a loveless marriage or was it in his nature to fool around...

    The Duke of Windsor and Wallis Simpson - 3 June 1937

    Wisteria, you referred to her wedding dress as "ghastly" dress and though it sounds a bit harsh the design really wasn't a recommendable one for such a happy occasion. The design was much too conservative and, as you described, too tight, emphasizing her shapeless lean figure. Let's blame it...

    CrownPrincess Juliana of The Netherlands & Prince Bernhard of Lippe-Biesterfeld -1937

    If I'm not mistaken Prince Bernhard was only two years younger than CP Juliana but the groom looks much younger or am I the only one thinking so...

    The Duke of Windsor and Wallis Simpson - 3 June 1937

    The Duchess had a fashion sense to outshine the stylish beauties of her time without possessing conventional beauty. I wonder if they had stylists/fashion advisors like they do now, or were her fashion entirely self-chosen. Now that I look at her wedding gown again it's a bit dull, but it's...

    Queen Victoria and Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg & Gotha - 1840

    Paintings and drawings of their wedding may not be accurate but it's not difficult to visualize their grand but elegant wedding ceremony.

    Count Luitpold of Castell-Castell and Princess Alexandrine Louise of Denmark - 1937

    Smile is absent from this wedding picture. Were they not happy or was it just a bad picture?

    Crown Prince Umberto of Italy and Princess Marie José of Belgium - 1930

    Princess Marie Jose of Belgium has such charismatic beauty, her mesmerizing eyes especially. Haven't seen many pictures of this beauty and would certainly like to see more. STEVEN, the pictures are no longer accessible.

    Criticisms of the Crown Princess and her family

    I'm horrified to think such hostile criticism and negativity exists towards Princess Masako and possibly even towards Princess Aiko. Am I correct to assume this coming from the Japanese public? I suspect there would be some among Japan's imperial family members since her role as Crown Princess...

    William and Kate: engagement and relationship rumours and musings 2009

    We are all entitled to an opinion regarding William and Kate's relationship but our opinions won't make any difference on the matter of much expected, awaited, belated official engagement announcement, because, in the end it would be up to William and Kate. The entire world may wish for their...

    Fur on Royals

    Princess Grace looks gorgeous and charming in fur. Oh, well...what wouldn't she look good in.... Anyone in their right mind won't condone animal cruelty and that's what the animal rights activists are trying to let the world know, but "Fur" business is a multi-million dollar business, so as...

    Princess Astrid Of Belgium & Archduke Lorenz of Austria-Este 1984

    Aside from the "fashion" everyone, including the bride and groom, looks lovely and wonderful. I wouldn't be impressed by Princess Astrid's wedding gown by any fashion standards. Her beauty and her handsome groom was the only saving grace from the fashion point of view..... You don't have to be...

    King Carl Gustaf of Sweden and Silvia Sommerlath: June 19, 1976

    All of the wedding pictures are excellent. Most of the pictures accessible on the internet were either too small in size or blurry to actually capture the moment and enjoy. Thank you for sharing these pictures "STEVEN."

    King Albert and Queen Paola: Picture Thread

    Looking thru these youthful pictures of Queen Paola I'm having second thoughts about the late Princess Grace of Monaco being the most beautiful royal of our time...but then...we may choose to differ...

    Crown Prince Naruhito & Crown Princess Masako current events 5: Dec. 2008- Dec. 2015

    I've watched this obedient dog "Hachiko" film on tv. Being a dog lover myself it was heart wrenching to see Hachi waiting at the station day after day for her master, who has died, to arrive..... I agree, Princess Masako looks brighter and happier in recent pics. I wish she would take on more...
