Wedding of Harry and Meghan: Guest Arrivals & Fashions

[ladongas]

That's not on the chapel step. It's at the door where all the royals entered.

Thanks, I hadn’t seen this picture before and couldn’t identify it. Guess I should have noticed the lack of greenery and flower!

The Royal Order of Sartorial Splendor: The Duke & Duchess of Sussex’s Wedding: Royal Guest Fashion

I'm not impressed by some of these but my overall best dressed royal is Kate. She looked very beautiful and elegant.

As expected, Serena's, The Countess of Snowdon, ensemble was effortlessly chic. If I am not mistaken, the hat was worn in 2012 for the Diamond Jubilee https://www.gettyimages.com/license/145767566

We've added a poll to the thread so you can vote on your favorite outfits (you can choose up to 3). Later today we'll put up the poll for the best dressed Royal guest.

I didn't noticed it until someone mention it, but Pippa's dress looks like Arizona Green Tea can design.

I liked Carole Middleton's blue dress.

(1) Doria Ragland
(2) Lady Kitty Spencer
(3) Cressida Bonas.

 

[Purrs]

Mine were:
1. Lady Kitty Spencer
2. Doria (gorgeous and elegant)

For my 3rd choice, I had trouble deciding. I finally picked Carole Middleton but she was a close tie with Autumn Phillips (who wasn't mentioned in the poll) and Pippa Middleton. Yes, Pippa's floral did look like the Arizona tea can but I liked it.

I also liked Gina Torres' and Serena William's outfits. I liked Camilla's outfit although not her hat which I thought was too much.

I personally do not care for Amal Clooney's mustard yellow because I dislike that shade of yellow but I thought she pulled it off well.

Meghan's mom had relatives there, they just weren't highlighted and seated in the Quire. I think one royal correspondent pointed out Doria's half brother and his mom. Also, we don't know what her niece and nephew look like. They were likely there, but because of the behaviour of their mother and grandfather, they didn't want the spotlight. Can't blame them.

I read in one of the magazines, that she did not invite her uncle from her mother side who is younger than her from the second marriage of her grandfather . They talked to the press about it but with some class not the scandal of the rest of the family

I know Camilla's son Tom attended the wedding, what about her daughter Laura?

 

[Pranter]

Yes Laura was there too.

I saw Laura, with her husband, walking in very animatedly chatting and walking backwards. She wore a big colourful dress. It was a happy group.

 

[O-H Anglophile]

My picks are Doria, Carole Middleton and the Duchess of Cambridge, runners up are Jessica Mulroney and the Duchess of Cornwall with a shout out to Sarah, Duchess of York. (best look for Sarah in a long time.)

Totally agree with your picks. Doria looked absolutely perfect - she shone, but did not outshine, the bride. For a guest, Carole Middleton looked totally appropriate, and The Duchess of Cambridge never gets it wrong - always elegant.

Jessica Mulroney and The Duchess of Cornwall also looked excellent.

But most of all...YES to a shout out for Sarah, Duchess of York. That's the best she's looked in decades.

Couldn’t agree more!

Thanks, I was sure she must have been but hadn't found her in any of the photos yet.

Upthread it was reported that Doria's younger brother and his mother were spotted at the wedding.

 

[Dman]

Gotta go with Oprah.

 

[RJC]

I voted for Doria, Kitty, Pippa and would have loved to also vote for Carole and Jacinta (she's wearing my favouite colour) but couldn't fit them in. Hard choice.

 

[Gem7]

Top three favorite outfits
Kitty Spencer
Doria Ragland
Duchess of Cambridge

Amal Clooney's dress was just OK, IMO

Some pictures I hadn’t seen before

Still no ID on the designer of the Princess Royal’s dress.
Lots of beautiful pictures of fashionable ladies.

[Mirabel]

I voted for Countess Spencer, Carole Middleton, and the Duchess of Cambridge.

I like everything about Kitty's Spencer's except the length. Felt the same about Chelsy's.
I liked Pippa's until I saw the comparison to Arizona Green Tea.

Didn't like Doria's, I thought it very dull.

 

[Tilia C.]

I voted for Doria, who looked perfectly lovely and elegant, Lady Kitty's wonderful green floral number, and Coutess Spencer for sheer elegance. Admittedly, several other guests looked spectacular as well, so it wasn't an easy choice.

 

[Cocoasneeze]

I voted for Doria, Amal and Oprah. There were many ladies dressed so amazingly, though.

A list of royal wedding guests has been posted by another royal watcher. It includes a German great-niece of Prince Philip, Princess Xenia zu Hohenlohe-Langenburg, who apparently was identified by German tv-watchers.

Not sure where this should go...

There was some discussion about the Clooneys’ invitation, prime seats, invite to evening party. In addition to Amal’s connection to Harry’s work, Jack Brooksbank works for Casamigos as UK Brand Ambassador.

But didn't Clooney sell that some time ago?

Doubt their invitation or seating has anything to do with Jack. Do we even know if jack has ever met the Clooneys before George sold Casamigos? It was reported in the days leading up to the wedding that the Duchess and Mrs. Clooney has struck up a personal friendship. Not sure about Mrs. Clooney doing any work with Prince Harry though?
