Some media is reporting William & Kate are also attending. Apparently it was posted on the Daily Mail, then quickly taken down. Another source speculates...

The dress would have been better without the bow.

I wonder where they will live. Philippos works at Pavlos's investment firm in NYC but Nina is based in London.

I don't recognize her - does anyone know who she is?

Also, as others have noted, I'm very surprised that no one from Daisy's branch of the DRF was there - after all, Philippos is her nephew just as much as he is Bene's. I find it very odd.

Isn't that Alexandra de Osma, who married a blond Hanover?  I thought she was one of the best dressed guests.

Edit:  Alessandra de Osma who married Christian Hannover.

I wonder if there were behind scene diplomatic issues with senior reigning royals- Daisy, Felipe, Letizia etc attending the very public wedding in Athens of the ex royal family? All those royals that did attend are “junior” enough for it not to be such a huge issue. Just a guess.

MC is wearing something a tad too close to white for a wedding guest IMO. Tatian looks gorgeous as always.

Jack B looked decidedly frosty in almost all pics I have seen.

I like the fact that the Antique Corsage Tiara was used. Have previous royal Greek brides worn a veil?

Nicholas had quite a few reigning royals at his own wedding --like WA and Max.  Frankly, I'm surprised the Michaels of Kent didn't show up, or a Mountbatten or two.

Anne Marie did, as well as Alexia, Tatiana and MC. I think most of them did.

The problem with the bride's ensemble is there is just too much fabric and it's heavy fabric.
I think you have to choose to go big on top or on the bottom - but not both.
If she wants the big ball skirt, the top should be fitted and have less fabric. With the wide shawl collar and the big bow, she looks gift-wrapped.  These should've been removed. The layer under the shawl collar has some pretty details that could've shined.

Then she has the big, heavy train that seems to start at the shoulder instead of the waist. That adds even more "weight" to the top of the ensemble. No need for the big train. The dress already has a modest train and the veil is very long.

I'm not a fan of  heavy fabrics for wedding gowns except for maybe winter weddings.
Much prefer the "lightness" of this gown from a recent wedding of a daughter of another billionaire, Jennifer Gates.

If the bride is pregnant, she's not showing much. Her figure looks full - but no bump and she's not fat. But if she wanted to hide her figure, she should've gone for a vintage style like these from Downton Abbey. They would've been more stylish that the one she's wearing.

I thought that too. I wondered of maybe it being in Athens had made it an issue or anything. Who knows- seems odd esp for the lack of DRF people there. Are we surprised Felipe and Letizia aren't there? Or is that the result of MCs shade at Letizia?

Well, if I were F&L, I would avoid the Greeks altogether. Why "legitimize" people who are privately condescending? F&L are reigning monarchs. Their presence would've added a lot of prestige to the Greek wedding. Anyway, they had better things to do. They are attending to the PoA awards. I hope they avoid Theodora's wedding as well. That will be a tacky affair.
