Princess Sophie wore the Bavarian Sapphire Floral Tiara with a Reem Acra Gown with a veil designed by Ukrainian label WONÁ Concept, with integrated Bavarian, Canadian, and Dutch elements.
This was a lovely wedding. The gown was simple, but beautiful. It was very close fitting across the neckline, which didn’t show to advantage from some angles, unfortunately. She was also obviously of the Princess of Wales school of “I never wear my hair up, so I won’t today” but the tiara looked lovely. I like the fashion for using a long veil as a train.
I wouldn’t want to trail a dozen small children behind me (or herd them in front, I don’t know what the European practice is!) but they all looked very cute.
Lots of familiar faces turned out to support them.
