The weekend was festive and I loved every minute of Friday as I sat down and watched Princess Eugenie marry Jack Brooksbank . It was a fairy-tale wedding with definitely 21st century bits . A true blood Princess marry in so many years well ,since Princess Anne tied the knot. It was a very well planned and beautiful day if the wind got rough ,the sun shone and no rain fell so it blessings from the weather Gods as well .
Eugenie's gown was stunning the rich fabric with embossed detailed was so regal looking , it made Meghan's tacky white shiny dress look cheap when she tied the knot with Prince Harry . Meghan's dress reminds me of the wedding dresses available from China at cut price on the web . Eugenie's very modern touch was when she decided to abandon the veil and show off her scars from her childhood surgery . She didn't need the veil the beautiful tiara with the green stones needed nothing else . She was radiant and Jack while looking nervous was clearly head over heels in love with his bride . I loved the touch when he put on his glasses to see his gorgeous bride glide down the aisle on her father's arm .
The guests were all very classy and no David & Victoria made it even better . I loved the thought when Eugenie selected all her young royal relations to be a part of her wedding troop . Harry leaving out the youngsters was in poor taste . Having Andrea Bocelli sing at the church was inspired . He is a gifted singer and often gives me goosebumps it was a very nice touch . Fergie was with the Royals again and it could not have been happier for the bride to have her Mum & Dad there for her . If none of the royals spoke to Fergie , who cares with pride of place in the front it's all that matters .
What did bother me was Beatrice shirking all her Maid of Honour duties . From not dressing up as her role bespoke to not being there giving her sister a hand was a puzzle . Eugenie might as well have named her Dad Man of Honour in place of Maid of Honour as I saw he did all the jobs expected . If people thought Bea was Fergie's escort that day and support I don't think that was necessarily her role . Fergie never needed to find support for big days she has the balls and attitude to carry herself . Princess Beatrice strikes me as shy and looked a little lost that day . Bea though has gone through some heartbreak and I'm sure she is missing not having a loving partner while her younger sass is already ahead in the romantic game .
The trooper that is Lady Louise in getting all the children up those stairs and down the aisle is a job massively well done . At 14 years old she pulled it off even though the wind caught her skirt at the top , it did not faze her . But I was dissapointed to see she nor her brother were put in the official wedding pictures . Why was that ??? They were attendants and had a role . I was pleased though to see Fergie standing so close to Prince Philip in the portraits , both looking relaxed and at ease . If Judi James some body language expert states otherwise in some huge lengthy article she is very wrong . Judi James is getting very old and needs to retire . Old people should give way for the younger generation . Jobs are valuable and young people need them . Nobody should work over the age of 65 . I firmly believe it .
Eugenie's wedding far out-did Harry & Meghan's nuptials in my humble opinion . Harry's was a show wedding with stage pomp and tackiness while Eugenie's was Royal & Regal and classic .
Why though were the guests of Princess Eugenie putting up their goody bags for sale on E-Bay ??? I would never sell such a thing if I were a guest . China make some copies of those goody bags I would love to have one knock off copy .
Wherever you were in the world I hope you got to watch Eugenie's wedding . It was magical . I wish them both many many wonderful years together with a strong bond like their parents . God bless Eugenie & Jack and Congratulations .
Have a wonderful day and keep smiling .
Love & Peace
What a lovely snap Sabrina.
