Castell-Rüdenhausen is a German noble family. Roderik Frederik Graf zu Castell-Rüdenhausen (19 June 1980) is the son of Christian Friedrich Casimir Graf zu Castell-Rüdenhausen and Carolina Hintzen. In 2014 he married Liesbeth Lotgering at Twickle Castle in Delden, the Netherlands. Twickel is a protected historic country estate with 81 complex parts near Delden in the hamlet of Deldeneresch , in the municipality of Hof van Twente in the province of Overijssel in The Netherlands. The moated castle forms the center. The Twickel Foundation was established in 1953 with the aim of preserving Twickel as a nature reserve and cultural monument for hikers, nature lovers and art lovers and thus perpetuating its historical significance. Baroness Van Heeckeren van Wassenaer contributed the core assets of her properties to the foundation. This included the Twickel castle with accompanying forests and farms and the inventory. The house archives also became the property of the foundation. The remaining lands remained the private property of the baroness. After her death in 1975, all her private estates were transferred by bequest to the Twickel Foundation. Since 2013, part of the house has been occupied by Roderik zu Castell-Rüdenhausen and his family. After their civil wedding on 17 May 2014, the religious wedding of Count Roderik zu Castell-Rüdenhausen and Liesbeth Lotgering took place in the Oude Blasius Church in Delden, The Netherlands on 7 June 2014. After the wedding the bridal couple toured the small city of Delden by carriage. It left more than enough time for guests, public and press to walk to the nearby Twickel Castle, where the couple lives since a few months. Loudly cheered they arrived at the front square of the castle. They shortly posed for the photographers present before going into the castle, followed by their guests. A reception took place in the castle grounds, and of course a big party was being held in the evening. The tiara comes with the castle, Twickel. It's not a Castell-tiara. Designer of the wedding dress is unknown to me Sources Wikipedia https://www.nettyroyal.nl...rries-liesbeth-lotgering/

Princess Ingrid of Sweden (Ingrid Victoria Sofia Louise Margareta)(28 March 1910 – 7 November 2000), the daughter of King Gustaf VI Adolf of Sweden and his first wife, Princess Margaret of Connaught. n 1935 she married Crown Prince Frederick of Denmark and they had three daughters, Margrethe, the present Queen of Denmark, Benedikte, now a Princess of Sayn-Wittgenstein-Berleburg, and Anne-Marie, the former Queen of the Hellenes.In 1947, her husband became king on his father's death. As queen, Ingrid reformed the traditions of Danish court life, abolished many old-fashioned customs at court and created a more relaxed atmosphere at official receptions. King Frederick IX died in 1972, and Ingrid's daughter Margrethe became queen. Frederick IX (Danish: Christian Frederik Franz Michael Carl Valdemar Georg)( 11 March 1899 – 14 January 1972) was King of Denmark from 1947 to 1972. Born into the House of Glücksburg, Frederick was the elder son of King Christian X (26 September 1870 – 20 April 1947) and Queen Alexandrine of Denmark (née Duchess Alexandrine of Mecklenburg-Schwerin) (24 December 1879 – 28 December 1952). Frederick was educated at the Royal Danish Naval Academy (breaking with Danish royal tradition by choosing a naval instead of an army career) and the University of Copenhagen. Before he became king, he had acquired the rank of rear admiral and he had had several senior commands on active service. He acquired several tattoos during his naval service.In addition, with his great love of music, the king was an able piano player and conductor. In the 1910s, Alexandrine considered the two youngest daughters of her cousin Tsar Nicholas II, Grand Duchess Maria Nikolaevna of Russia and Grand Duchess Anastasia Nikolaevna of Russia, as possible wives for Frederick, until the execution of the Romanov family in 1918. In 1922, Frederick was engaged to Princess Olga of Greece and Denmark, his second cousin. They never wed. Instead, on 15 March 1935, a few days after his 36th birthday, he was engaged to Princess Ingrid of Sweden (1910–2000), a daughter of Crown Prince Gustaf Adolf (later King Gustaf VI Adolf of Sweden) and his first wife, Princess Margaret of Connaught. They were related in several ways. They married in Stockholm Cathedral on 24 May 1935. Their wedding was one of the greatest media events of the day in Sweden in 1935. They had 3 daughters. Ingrid's wedding dress was a "simply cut" white gown, described alternately as silk or crepe satin. The gown featured a high neck, a draped bodice, and long sleeves with a 20 foot train, trimmed with point de venice lace worn by Ingrid's mother Margaret of Connaught on her own wedding day in 1906. The veil was made of the same lace and has since been worn by many descendants of Ingrid or their brides on their wedding day. Atop the veil Ingrid wore the crown of myrtle, common for Swedish brides. She wore the Khedive of Egypt Catier Tiara she had inherited from her mother and a strand of simple pearls. Ingrid also wore a special gift commissioned by her new husband for their wedding day. Frederik ordered a brooch from Carlman of Sweden, made of Queen Margaret's diamonds into a namesake daisy shape. The brooch is now a much-loved piece of the Danish Royal Family. Ingrid's daughter Queen Margrethe II wore the daisy brooch on her own wedding day. Ingrid carried a bouquet of long stemmed lilies, plum roses, and myrtle tied with trailling ribbons. She also carried a fan and a handkerchief that was part of her mother's wedding ensemble.

Duchess Cecilie Auguste Marie of Mecklenburg-Schwerin (20 September 1886 – 6 May 1954) the youngest daughter of Frederick Francis III, Grand Duke of Mecklenburg-Schwerin and Grand Duchess Anastasia Mikhailovna of Russia.She spent most of her childhood in Schwerin, at the royal residences of Ludwigslust Palace and the Gelbensande hunting lodge, only a few kilometres from the Baltic Sea coast. Her father suffered badly from asthma and the wet damp cold climate of Mecklenburg was not good for his health. As a result, Cecilie spent a large amount of time with her family in Cannes in the south of France, favoured at the time by European royalty, including some whom Cecilie met such as Empress Eugénie and her future husband's great-uncle, Edward VII.During the winter visit of 1897, Cecilie's sister, Alexandrine, met her future husband, Crown Prince Christian, later Christian X of Denmark, shortly before the death of their father at the age of 46. After returning to Schwerin, Cecilie spent time with her widowed mother in Denmark. After the death of her father, she traveled every summer, from 1898 to 1904, visiting her relatives in Russia.During the wedding festivities of her brother Frederick Francis IV, Grand Duke of Mecklenburg-Schwerin in Schwerin in June 1904, the 17-year-old Duchess Cecilie got to know her future husband, Wilhelm, German Crown Prince. Kaiser Wilhelm II had sent his eldest son to the festivities as his personal representative. Taller than most women of her time at 182 centimetres (over 5'11"), Cecilie was as tall as the German Crown Prince. Wilhelm was struck by her great beauty, and her dark hair and eyes. On 4 September 1904, the young couple celebrated their engagement at the Mecklenburg-Schwerin hunting lodge, Gelbensande. Wilhelm, German Crown Prince, Crown Prince of Prussia (Friedrich Wilhelm Victor August Ernst)( 6 May 1882 – 20 July 1951) the eldest child and heir of the last German Emperor, Wilhelm II, and the last Crown Prince of the German Empire and the Kingdom of Prussia. After the death of his grandfather Emperor Frederick III, Wilhelm became crown prince at the age of six, retaining that title for 30 years until the fall of the empire on 9 November 1918. Wilhelm was born on 6 May 1882 in the Marmorpalais of Potsdam in the Province of Brandenburg. He was the eldest son of Wilhelm II, the last German Kaiser (Emperor) (1859–1941), and his first wife, Princess Augusta Victoria of Schleswig-Holstein (1858–1921). The wedding of Duchess Cecilie of Mecklenburg-Schwerin and the German Crown Prince Wilhelm took place on 6 June 1905 in Berlin. The wedding ceremony took place in the Royal Chapel and also the nearby Berlin Cathedral. The royal couple received as wedding presents jewellery, silverware and porcelain. At the wish of the bride, Richard Wagner's famous wedding march from Lohengrin was played along with music from The Meistersinger from Nuremberg conducted by Richard Strauss. On her wedding day, Duchess Cecilie of Mecklenburg-Schwerin became Her Imperial and Royal Highness The German Crown Princess and Crown Princess of Prussia. She was expected to one day become German Empress and Queen of Prussia. The couple were married in a civil ceremony earlier the same day. This was "one of the most distinguished assemblages that could be gathered in Europe," where several hundred guests witnesses the "simple wedding service of the Lutheran Church." Seventy of the guests represented German and foreign royal houses, including Archduke Franz Ferdinand, representing Emperor Franz Joseph, Grand Duke Michael of Russia, Prince Hendrik of the Netherlands, representing Queen Wilhelmina; the Duke and Duchess of Aosta, representing the King and Queen of Italy; Prince Arthur of Connaught, representing King Edward VII; Prince Albert of Belgium; the Duke of Oporto, representing the King; Prince Ferdinand of Roumania, and the Crown Princes of Denmark and Greece. Cecilie's wedding gown was "of Russian silver brocade, with a train four and a half yards in length." The train was attached to the shoulders. The bridal veil "was of old Brussels lace." Four maids of honor were dress in "pale blue silk," the Crown Prince's favorite color. The attendants carried the bride's train. She was also followed by two young pages. She will wear a white dress adorned with the costliest lace, for which her dressmaker will receive a check for $25,000; a long white veil and a small wreath of myrtle with the nuptial crown, „The Prinzessinnenkrone „on her head.

Love the dress (sort of reminds me of my own), but the tiara seems too big for her head.

Princess Alexandra of Hanover (1959), the 5th child and 3rd daughter of Ernst August, Hereditary Prince of Brunswick, Prince of Hanover (German: Ernst August Prinz von Hannover)(18 March 1914 – 9 December 1987) and his 1st wife Princess Ortrud of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Glücksburg (1925–1980). She is a younger sister of Ernst August, the current head of the House of Hanover. She is in the British line of succession. Andreas zu Leiningen (November 27, 1955) is a German entrepreneur, nobleman and since 1991 head of the former Princely House of Leiningen. As this he bears the in-house name of the "8th Prince of Leiningen". Andreas Fürst zu Leiningen was born as the second son of Emich Kyrill Fürst zu Leiningen (1926–1991) and his wife Eilika Duchess of Oldenburg (1928–2016) in Frankfurt (Main). He has been the current head of the Leiningen family since 1991. Due to the second marriage of his older brother Karl-Emich zu Leiningen to the bourgeois Gabriele Renate Homey, the latter lost his right to become head of the house, which is why Andreas succeeded his father post mortem as head of the house in Leiningen. As a descendant of Queen Victoria, Andreas zu Leiningen is also represented in the British line of succession. Andreas has been married to Alexandra since October 5th, 1981 The couple has three children I have been searching, but couldn't figure out who designed the wedding dress of Alexandra. Also there aren't many pictures available, at least to me.
