I liked the wedding dress of Kate Middleton a lot,so I think Charlene was not so much flattering with the Armani simple wedding dress,she chosed,so in my opinion, Charlene would have been better with a more sophisticated wedding dress,and with tiara and earrings of course.

I just had to laugh at anyone who thinks WnK didn't look happy at their wedding. The only wedding I have seen with more smiling was Victoria and Daniel.
As for the recent wedding, I tend to think that weddings in Monaco, perhaps because they are Catholic, are more serious and the bride and groom are told not to grin too much.

i think it's not fair to make comparison between weddings, just because every person has their own reaction and personality. In addition i don't know well C&A as i know W&K, but it must be said, when I looked at C&A videos of the engagement and then the wedding, i had the souspect there was something odd...during the engagement video they were set apart from each other and barely look at each other...and then the balcony kiss...it was like they didn't practise that too much...i don't know.

I just hope things will work for them as well, Charlene is such a beautiful woman...

I wonder if she wanted to postpone the wedding because of the rumours that Albert had another love child, but she was told they couldn't because of the cost? 

I'm sorry, I know I'm in the small minority, but I don't find Charlotte all that attractive.  In the video I thought she looked very old and harsh.  I thought Caroline looked beautiful, and Charlene looked absolutely angelic

Oh no I am with you on that one, even with the new set of teeth, lip injections, botox and nose and breast plastic surgery. 

Apparently many people disagree.  I was shocked by the number of comments on the Daily Mail  pointing to Charlene as far prettier that Catherine. 

It is not a competition, however, I preferred Kate's classic gown and she really looked so happy during the ceremony, after the ceremony and ever since.

Charlene struck me as very, very sad.  I hope the rumors are false.


Sorry Missing Diana, there's a lot of "C" names on that list, but I was talking about Charlotte and not Charlene

Well I have to say I like this wedding very much, more than Kate's and Will's wedding in any case. Charlene was beautiful, her dress was simply amazing and her hairpiece made of diamonts ... WOW! I don't know whether the rumours about Charlene running away are true or not but I really love this picture of Albert and Charlene at the balcony:  http://img.ibtimes.com/www/data/images/full/2011/07/01/122598-balcony.jpg

And then there are several pictures taken in private moments where you can clearly see they are in love with each other. I think Albert chose well and I really do believe this marriage will work.
  As for the other guests at the wedding: CP Mary was stunning at the ceremony and especially afterwards at the dinner, Madeleine and Mette-Marit pretty as always, Charlotte .....well, well, well call it Chanel but her outfit was terrible and her headpiece especially, Caroline's facial expression was priceless - she really looked pissed off by this wedding. But the star was apart from Charlene Princess Stephanie's older daughter Pauline. Now that's a pretty and lovely girl and far from being haughty and cold as her so-called "stunning" cousin Charlotte.

  Isn't Pauline pretty ?  :nod:



Lothwen

Thanks Princess Grace :thanks:

Who is Daniel of Sweden with?  That doesn't look like Victoria


Just saw a full length picture of Charlotte, and that dress is ugly IMO.  It looks like something my sister would have worn to a semi formal dance, back in the 80s

Princess Marie of Denmark was accompanied by Prince Daniel to the festivities !


Lothwen

^Great pics.  I love those little moments when they look at each other.

I love the beading on Charlene's dress.  I like that the dress was very simple otherwise, and I really liked the neckline

I htink William looked happy.  Kate looked tense and as if her face was too tight to smile.  Don't know about Albert and Charlene.. though probably all these stories about paternity tests etc are just tabloid fodder

Princesse Grace

I think Albert and Charlene were not expressive at all at the wedding and after it,besides, I saw Charlene sad. :cry10:

a beautiful princess:

love her diamond hairpiece! apparently made of a set of antique brooches, loaned by Princess Caroline (!)

Caroline's opinion to this wedding:

The floral diamond hairpiece of Charlene was lovely, but to wear as tiara ,not at back of head imo.

I suppose we'll soon find out if they're true or not.  I'm more interested in whether or not Charlene really tried to leave before the civil ceremony.  There were just too many reports of the incident, along with no real explanation from the palace, for it to be discounted.  If she really tried to leave and was stopped (and, according to a couple of reports, her passport taken from her), that's scary. 

Charlene didn't look at all happy to me at either the civil or the religious ceremony.  I felt like her face was set in stone.  Albert winked at her a few times during the religious ceremony, but he was winking at the wedding guests as he walked down the carpet, too.  Well, I hope both reports are wrong and that they have a happy marriage.

I hope the reports are wrong too Cindy, but even if the rumours about Albert having another child out of wedlock are just that-rumours, it's not a nice start to a marriage.

Yes,I agree-I see sadness in her eyes and she cried later after the ceremony....no idea why? Maybe of shyness or happiness...

XeniaCasaraghi

Again, Grace looked somber at her wedding so I won't judge Charlene. I only hope for whatever reason she is doing this that she has some happiness.
As for the paternity rumors, knowing Albert, they are probably true.

The reason Grace looked sombre at her wedding was because there had been so much hype about it and the American press invaded Monaco she was worn out. 

Am curious though, does anyone know why Albert and Charlene chose to have a civil ceremony followed by the blessing in church?  Why not marry in church?

Also, do you think it true that she tried to leave the Principality before the wedding?

Well,they followed the tradition of Rainier and Grace,first civil wedding at Salon du throne,and second religious wedding in a Cathedral as  Rainier and Grace,or in the courtyard of Palace ,as Albert and Charlene,but always 2 ceremonies.
According to the last question,is hard to know truth of what happened....there are many rumours,who knows if they are  true or false?
