Prince Harry and Meghan Markle: Church Service, Carriage Procession - May 19, 2018


If you have answers, please help by responding to the unanswered posts.
You're confusing journalism with sensationalism. Were the interviews and documentaries that Charles did for his mother's Diamond Jubilee in 2012 and the ones the rest of the family did at that time a mistake too?

You see the British tabloids as the media. I see the differences in interviewing and reporting. ;)

I don't think I'm the one who's confused, how can you compare Charles giving an interview about his mother's jubilee with Doria telling her and Meaghan's hard luck story on TV? Apples and oranges.

That's just it. We don't know for sure there's an interview even and any "topic" an interview would be on with Doria is just speculation at this point. We *don't know* anything really. :D
 
I think everyone needs to A) wait to see if it's true and B) if true, see the content before having the vapors.

Oprah (while not my favorite person) is not your average journalist or sensation seeker. She has a lot of depth and has experienced a lot of things Meghan has probably gone thru by now. She will at least know that Sarah McCorkendale is NOT married to Charles Spencer.

Let's stop the speculating about a potential interview and get back on topic.

The actual church service, carriage procession and reception.

Everything else is OFF TOPIC.

What a beautiful, elegant gesture from Meghan..I LOVE it!?

Not only the bracelets but Harry and Meghan were very thoughtful of their guests at the evening party enough to provide comfortable slippers for everyone. Incredibly sweet, I think, and conscientious of them.
 
made for her six best friends and her new sister in law

And [obv] the PAYING Public- @ $450 a pop... UGH...
 
I would imagine that Meghan paid for the bracelets herself, so the paying public needn't get itself into a fit of outrage.
 
I read wyevale's comment as expressing disappointment that the jeweller is cashing in on Meghan's choice to commission the bespoke pieces by subsequently hawking them to the public.

Indeed that was my point.. Special presents become rather LESS special if everyone can buy one..
 
I appreciated Prince Charles, to accompany Meghan. I wonder why he did not walk from the beginning? Does it have a special meaning?
 
I think the significance of Meghan entering and walking up the aisle alone to the Quire was symbolic that she was coming into this marriage of her own volition and free will and not being "given" to anyone or previously "belonging" to anyone.

When Charles met her and escorted her, it was like she came to the door of Harry's family domain and the groom's father welcomed her warmly and escorted her then to her bridegroom.

Since the printed order of service still had Meghan's father's name on it, it is apparently clear now that Meghan always intended to walk down the aisle by herself and that her father would only meet her exactly at the some point where she was met by Prince Charles. In other words, Charles simply replaced Tom Sr., but her walking down the aisle by herself was not a reaction to her father's absence, but rather what was originally planned to happen anyway.

I noticed that too and it emphasizes even more that Meghan was coming into the marriage on her own and just had a man to escort her in the final lap of the walk up the aisle. I like that she did that. :D
 
So, a lot of the American shows are still in the afterglow of the wedding.

 
I'm watching the wedding on BBC America and noticed that Sarah, Duchess of York was indeed sitting in the Quire -- just not w/the family. Apologies if I'm late to the party on this!
 
I didn’t really like the fashions of the bridal children. The girls dresses looked to be ill-fitting and the boys uniforms were too dark and somber for such a spring/summer wedding. Don’t get me wrong, they were all super cute and so well behaved I just didn’t particularly like the outfits chosen for them.

Do you think that the flower girls could have had pastel colored bows on their dresses?
 
The girls were to match Meghan and the boys to match Harry.

One more complaint of the wedding, we still haven’t seen a closeup of Harry’s wedding ring yet. This is unfair! Doesn’t anyone care about the groom’s ring? :lol:

I wanted to see a close up of his ring too. What's wrong with these photographers, that was one of their jobs!! ;)
 
I loved the wedding and everything in it.

I'm European (Swiss) and I did not found the sermon unusal or embrassing. My own pastor (being italian), preaches in a very similar way. In my eyes if you don't have passion for your faith, why be a pastor? I also thought that the message of the sermon (yes, there was a message), was very intune with Harry and Meghan. It fit them.

I'm quite sad that so many people go about everything they didn't like. There are so many negative things already in this world, I just don't understand why it's necessary to be so negative about a wedding. Besides, it was Harry's and Meghan's wedding, not ours.
 
There were so many beautiful things that came out of this wedding. While members of the royal family were waiting for the bridal party to arrive, many of the family still found themselves amazed by the beauty of St. George’s Chapel. They’ve in that place more than hundreds of times, but they still found time to take in the architecture and majesty of the place. Of course the guest did the same.
 
I'm not sure where the appropriate place is to post about wedding rings.

I think the difference between Charles wearing one and Harry wearing one was the exchange during the ceremony. I'm not sure how to check if there was a ring presented to Charles by Camilla or not. I think that is what makes a ring a wedding ring.

There was only one exchange with Charles and Diana.
