The Royal Wedding of William and Kate - And What Came After

--- Quote from: Tony-Ranger on April 17, 2011, 04:54:39 pm ---My daughter's wedding dress had to be custom made because she is a modest young lady and couldn't find any dresses that weren't strapless or sleeveless. Her dress was long sleeved silk and we also had to modify the pattern so the neckline wouldn't be so deeply plunging.

I'm sure the dress was very pretty. I hope to see a picture of it some day.
Meanwhile, I'd like to know what idiot designer came up with the notion of a strapless and sleeveless wedding gown. Especially in virginal white? ::)

Time has marched on, Jeff. White means your first wedding...not that you're a virgin. ;D

See? She was ample competition for the cathedral.

I might joke about Diana's gown, but I did think it was quaintly old-fashioned and I rather liked it. The sleeves were too voluminous, though.
--- Quote ---I was thinking since Kate is so modern, she would wear something like Carolyn Bessette did in her marriage to JFK, Jr and then the surroundings, pomp and circumstance would completely overwhelm her.

It's a daytime Church of England wedding, so I think it's a pretty good bet that Kate's shoulders will be covered for the ceremony. Not only is she marrying an heir to the throne, she's also marrying a presumed future Supreme Governor of the Church of England, so she can't look too "tarty."

I didn't say it meant the bride was a virgin.
Good luck finding one of those, these days.

That picture published here of Diana in her wedding dress seems to have been bleached.
Her wedding gown was no where near that white, in fact it was not white at all, it was an IVORY colour.
