Does anyone know if Louis and Tessy will go on a honeymoon? And where to?

Why is that actually? GD Henri married a commoner, yet she's been accorded a title. and so have his children.Marengo said:I believe it is Gabriel de Nassau. No title anyway, but maybe that will come later. The children of Prince Jean did not have a title when they were born. GD Jean made them Counts of Nassau later in life. I don't believe they ever elevated Helene in rank, so tessy will probably just stay mrs. de Nassau to.

A pity that Prince Jean or his children did not attend. But nice to see the Liechtenstein- and Habsburg cousins (the blonde Archduke reminds me of the character where Harry Potter is always fighting with in his movie )
She is Madame Tessy de Nassau since her marriage.
Other threads also so not start with Mary Donaldson, Letizia Ortiz or Máxima Zorreguieta?
All the daughters of Grand Duke Jean and the late Grand Duchess Josephine Charlotte wore a tiara to their wedding, as did Grand Duchess Maria Teresa. Actually, they all wore the same tiara, which, if I remember my royal jewels correctly, was given to Josephine Charlotte by the nation of Belgium on the occasion of her wedding. This tiara was also one of the ones that would have been included in that sale if the JC jewelry sale had happened.
From what I can remember, all the other Luxembourgish royal brides have worn tiaras. Sybilla just decided not to wear one, I don't remember why. Tessy did not wear one because she was not marrying into the royal family- Louis still carries the title as a mere formality.
That was so sweet of him, although what on earth is up with his hair? Why it it blonde on top? New Luxembourgish fashion statement?
Yes, she knows. On serving as a nurse in a UN military unit in a dangerous region where quite some UN-dsoldiers have already died for their duty towards freedom and peace - the Kosovo. In a place like that, in a situation like that many things can happen. Even a not so innocent love affair with a somewhat stupid and unnecessary outcome for both parties.
But normally it takes two to get pregnant - and she accepted that she would not be married before her baby was born, maybe not be married at all and did not make a fuss about it on talking to the press, painting her new in-laws in a negative way.
If there had been any kind of pressure on prince Louis from Tessy's side, I guess it would have happened before the baby was born. She certainly would have gotten her share of their money, but not a ring on her finger.
Yes, you can assume that she held out for the greater prize but so far nothing in either her past or her behaviour has hinted at a lack of integrity. So only time will tell what comes out of this marriage. IMHO.
I LOVE reading that, thanks for sharing....I thought the simplicity of the bridal attire was appropriate for a young girl, and she is a radiantly young bride compared to many these days. And other royals have lived together for lo-these-many-years before marrying...and possibly Louis is the only one she's loved, which makes her more virginal than many.
When I married my second husband (the Real Thing) I wore off white with blue accessories. Why? Obviously I was not a virgin as I had a seven year old child. I wore white, I think, because white is a great color with my coloring and because I was starting something NEW. My second hubby was the love of my life and boy was that new, to have so much love and caring in my life, and my husband adopted my son.
We had 40 years together, the best thing that every happened to me in a life of struggle and confusion. He rescued me, my prince charming. And he looked a lot like HGD Guillaume, only a little older.
Five years today ! And a wonderful family (when the little girl to complete their family ???)
