Beautiful red suit.
The dress is okay...it doesn't really jump out at me as being that great. Wish she would wear her hair down though.

To me it's an evening dress..not a daytime wedding dress. Something more summery ..less formal? I think it would work better.

Swedish weddings in general are afternoon to evening affairs who often end very late. Often the dress code ranges from suits, black tie (or a mix thereoff) to white tie. Regardless of dress code the ladies are most often in evening gowns all day.Yes the dress seems very formal for a day, but that is pretty customary. Not just royal weddings in Sweden. Whenever we see the Swedish royals at a wedding, they seem to be in full gowns. Makes even more sense if there is no time to change before an evening reception. I would have been shocked if we saw her in something like what the guests at the British wedding wore. British weddings call for day dress and hats. Like Edward's wedding, Swedish weddings seem to call for more evening looks.
I love the dress. The color is very subtle, as not to draw attention. But there is beautiful detailing to it. Her hair looks lovely
Missed a few looks it seems:
I really love the color and pattern of the dress she wore to the WWF event.
But the red suit was fantastic. Great color. Love the softer blouse with it
The wedding ceremony started around 16.00.Do we know what time the wedding actually was? This time of year the sun doesn’t set until quite late, so it’s hard to tell if it’s afternoon or evening.

My guess is that the ceremony took about an hour followed by a drink, transportation (by boat) to the place of the dinner, more drinks to give the newlyweds time to get photographed... I doubt if dinner was earlier than 20.00.Late afternoon. So by the time the wedding was over, it was definitely headed into evening for the reception.
