I really, really like Sarah Chatto. Whenever I've seen an interview of her talking about the Queen, she always speaks of her so fondly and so kindly. I feel like they must have a good relationship, especially since her own mother passed.
It is pretty clear that QEII is quite fond of Lady Sarah. HERE is a DM article with some nice pictures. It always seems such a close 'normal' relationship. I'm sure I've seen photos of the Queen going to church with Sarah by her side in the car. It's lovely that they are so close.

Diana was the very essence of compassion, of duty, of style, of beauty. All over the world she was a symbol of selfless humanity. All over the world, a standard bearer for the rights of the truly downtrodden, a very British girl who transcended nationality.

I wonder why Princess Astrid did not wear a bridal tiara on her wedding day. AFAIK she had a title even before her father became the King of Belgium? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qohbog1T9Hk

I am certainly not a fan of Charlene fashion choices, but I like her bridal look. She was put together well for the Day.
It appears I'm the only one here who's not that impressed with Mette Marit bridal gown. I'm not saying it's bad or anything, it's just that I don't see the wow factor here. The veil I do dislike. To me it looks like a piece of cloth. But then I am from different generation etc.

I didn't think MM's dress was all that either. Maybe it just didn't photograph well, cuz I thought the material looked musty. The design also emphasised her poor posture.

You are right. She was born HRH Princess Astrid, Princess of Belgium. IDK why she didn't wear a tiara for her wedding, especially when her two sisters-in-law ( a nobility member and a commoner) wore one. The flowers in her hair were quite impressive

Now well the dress was typical 80ies. We all know what people used to wear back then.
About the non tiara: Just because she's a princess doesn't mean she has to wear one. She most likely just loved the flowers more.

I actually think there was something strangely Edwardian about that dress.

I didn't like her flowers either. I've read some people say they looked beautiful, but all I see are dropping flowers as though they've been out of water too long. And the bouquet looked so thin too.
