ROYAL WEDDING 1999 - Edward & Sophie (7 of 8)

[maligurl7]

Do I think Diana would've loved a small wedding as this? HELL YES, do I think the Queen would let it happen? HELL NOOOOOOOOOOO..... Do you really think a shy person like Princess Di would've wanted all those people around? Also, she would've probably opted for a much smaller cathedral, who knows....however, she isn't a mistake, she turned that Palace around and really drilled what's right in their heads, that this country can definitely be thankful for....

sophie has turned out to be one of the familys best assets

The Queen mum looks like she has a good sense of humor. Don't know why but I see that in her lol

Seriously, Diana and Charles married in 1981 (18 years earlier) and Sarah and Andrew married in 1986 (13 years earlier). Obviously fashioned evolved a lot over those years. Sophie's dress would have been considered a major disappointment in 1981 or 1986 but it was elegant and classic for the time when she married. Likewise, Diana and Sarah's gowns were appropriate for the time but would have seemed ridiculous in 1999.

does the queen ever smile

Henry the VIII is buried in this chapel. There is a simple memorial plaque to note this. When I visited I expected he would have something larger than life, just as he was, but it's just a floor plaque (they walk over it when they go past the choir).

@BlushResponse1 i heard she wanted a lower key wedding,

[helenaareal10]

the queen mother was very beutiful, she was the grandmother of the bridgroom and mother of her Majesty the Queen Elizabeth the second.

[catlover5575]

this wedding for this couple they were way more mature than Diana and Sarah those two were spoiled, she did not come in a glass coach nor did she have a cinderella dress with a twenty foot train, you can tell as well as i Sophie was way more mature to be married into royalty than Diana and Sarah those two had issues i could tell Sophie is just decent and one of the more respectable ladies just like Autumn Kelly a non royal relation marrying into the family will always do better

[BlushResponse1]

@catlover5575 Excuse me, but i hope you are not calling dear Diana and Sarah primadonnas?! just cause they arrived in carriages and had elaborate gowns!...the reason why Sophie arrived in a sheet and a car was cause she was marrying someone lower on the ladder to the throne, as apposed to charles and andrew who are further up.

[MDkid1]

she kinda looks like Diana....lets hope these two stay married! :P

They both look so happy, and Sophie looks beautiful. Wonderful music, too. Widor's Toccata was played at my wedding - brings back very happy memories whenever I hear it.

Now she's a lady !!! Better than Sarah Ferguson....

Organist made a mistake on the first few measures. He played the wrong bar

[edwardgbell]

What time does he do that? I don't hear it.

I like that smile Her Majesty gave the Earl and Countess after they bowed --- it was special.

[thondefaix]

Sophie had a simple and elegant dress : excellent choice.

I have never seen wearing the Queen this dress, It's beautiful...

GOD SAVE THE QUEEN!!!

@324wilson These low IQ idiots have the country thinking for yrs they have Royal Blood, what the heck is that? Unless I missed something in school, its called Red Blood ! Least they got the R, correct. Sitting on your Royal wrinkled rump living off tax $, Called Welfare where I'm from fool. You've sold the whole nation a bunch of buffoonery , while you ride around in some prehistoric buggy, with a stupid teaira on your head. Take that stupid thing off... that belongs to Cinderella

[adam4757]

@324wilson The Queen always looks beautiful. I actually think she's got more stylish as she's got older.

[324wilson]

@adam4757 True. Same can be said about last week's wedding of Prince William.

[missshygirl101]

@324wilson It's the last wedding she really got dressed up for. She should've wore something similar @ Kate and Williams wedding.

hands down 1981 was awesome... 1986 was bad and 99 is worse

[charmed4sure16]

i will agree about 86', but this was not that bad!!! what is so wrong with this wedding?? first of all they are still together so they must have done something right:) secondly it was simple and elagant, a tad medieval, which i find very romantic. And nothing i think can ever top 81', that was magic!

[charmed4sure16]

i will agree with 86', but this is not that bad! It is simple and elagant, with a touch of a medieval feel, which i find very romantic. Plus they are still together so they must have done something right:) And as far as 81', nothing i think can ever top that, it was magic!
