The Royal Wedding: Celebrities, Royals and Hats!

The wedding that has been on everyone’s lips for the past month took place this afternoon at St George’s Castle in Windsor.

And there was ululating!

In true royal wedding style, the creme de la creme of celebville came to witness the historic ceremony and it is no surprise because the bride, Meghan Markle, now Duchess of Sussex, rose to popularity as a respected actress starring in the American series, Suits. 

Guests in attendance included Amal and George Clooney, Victoria and David Beckham, Idris Alba, Oprah, Serena Williams and Meghan’s long-time friend fellow actress Priyanka Chopra.

Meghan looked flawless in a long-sleeved Givenchy gown designed by British designer Waight Keller, whilst Harry stood tall in his military regalia. The VIP celebrity guests also stole the show with their elaborate hats and royal fashion.
