Why can't love work? They looked so very happy and much in love... it is such a shame. I mean she really loved him and he seemed to love her!!!

@tigertbalm I don't think that's true. Diana wore a tiara...(from her own family but still...), Sophie wore a tiara, I believe the Queen Mother also wore a tiara at some point on her wedding day. The tradition is that the Queen either buys or loans a tiara to the bride, Sarah just chose to wear flowers up the ailse as a symbolism of her becoming a "country girl" and a tiara back to show she was now HRH The Duchess of York and a princess.

@LyricalXilence She wasn't supposed to wear a tiara because she was not born of royal blood until aftyer the ceremony. Kate broke with tradition by wearing a tiara for the ceremony.

@LyricalXilence It probably was boring as hell. I don't exactly see a beaming smile on the Queen either btw.

@4sm2use Nope! They were not invited To Princes Will's wedding. Can't help but get a little giggle & grin about that one.

@bfuente1 No she didn't keep the title! People are so deluded that Diana, Princess of Wales means she keeps the title. Let me make it more clear if the Duke of York remarries, that woman becomes HRH The Duchess of York but Sarah remains Sarah, Duchess of York. Sarah is not THE Duchess of York, just like the former Duchess of Marlborough is not THE Duchess of Marlborough. The Duke of Marlborough's current wife is the Duchess of Marlborough but his former wife has the STYLE Duchess of Marlborough.

Good Lord... that curtsy - like a peasant. What a strange addition to the Royal Family she was - like a caricature

[carpentersfan2010]

@BlushResponse1 Actually Sarah was a Princess.. when she was married her list of titles would have started with HRH the Princess Andrew...Duchess of York.. and so on... just as Diana was HRH the Princess Charles... Sophie HRH the Princess Edward and finally Catherine.. HRH the Princess William...

I don't like this dress.

[TheNuharoo]

That song is so CHEERFUL and perfect really for the wedding, any wedding really.

BTW, Diana looks very common and like a petulant teenager sitting their hunched over like she is in a boring math class.
