I did love her bouquet.

Make up was too harsh. I give the dress 7/10 but she did look beautiful.

Pippa's dress was AMAZING. What was it made of? THe most expensive and beautiful silk ever made, spun by silkworms only fed on pure water and mountain air?? Very upstagy though and too slinky, I thought. Too much fake tan.

I thought the dress was beautiful but her makeup was terrible.

breathing · 29/04/2011 13:42

I hated the bouquet

breathing · 29/04/2011 13:43

is it usual for a bridesmaid to wear white?

sakura · 29/04/2011 13:45

I'm guessing Kate chose the bridesmaid dresses?

Agree with the poster who said that Lady Sara Chatto 's wedding dress was beautiful

Al0uiseG · 29/04/2011 13:48

Lots of footage of Pippas bottom, this years "rear of the year"?

Bucharest · 29/04/2011 13:49

I agree too about Lady Sarah's dress....and thingy, Edward's wife....her wedding dress was lovely too.

Bloody hell, Andrew's daughters!

The one in blue - whichever it was. Bulldog wrapped in a shower curtain! Positively GURNING out of the carriage on the way back to Nan's for the spread Grin

Al0uiseG · 29/04/2011 13:51

Unfair to Bulldogs ShoutyHamster

KateMiddletonsMum · 29/04/2011 13:52

The dress was lovely, though I was expecting a tad more slink but didn't wor Pippa carry off the swishy frock well!
(think I will put a word in with Harry as to what a catch Pippa would be)

breathing · 29/04/2011 13:52

absolutely hated Pippa's dress

splash anyone

catchmeifucan · 29/04/2011 13:54

I thought she looked gorgeous, the dress is simply stunning.A lovely moment when William looks at her and says "you look beautiful". Harry looked dashing an handsome in his uniform.

ShoutyHamster · 29/04/2011 13:54

And the sister...FAR too much bum on show. Neither the Time nor the Place

Agree with comment that her dress looked as if it was part of a completely different wedding party. Ok dress but just didn't fit in and looked a bit cheap as a result. Poor Cox's Orange Pippin!

ShoutyHamster · 29/04/2011 13:54

Fair cop. No self respecting bulldog would be seen dead in such a thing Grin

sweetkitty · 29/04/2011 13:55

8/10 wasn't blown away by the dress TBH funny nipple thing going on

Pippa's dress I loved but totally out of style with Kate's and not appropriate for the Abbey, thought there would have been more bridesmaids.

Flowergirls looked cute but their dresses were a bit dated.

QE looked fab in yellow

Beatrice and Eugenie - OMG

GitAwfMayLend · 29/04/2011 13:55

I think the veil was perfect - reminiscent of the Queen mother's in the 20s.

I like the whole 50s vibe. Mind you she could have worn berketex bride and looked wonderful.

Think Miriam Gonzalez was so stylish. And Theresa May funnily enough, she looked great.

Phillip seemed very friendly with Camilla, less so the queen.

Zara P the best of the royals I think, by a long shot. The york princesses look ghastly. Too broad in the beam for the clothes they chose.

Did you see Earl Spencer's daughters (three beautiful albeit brash blondes). Chelsea version of towie Grin

Laquitar · 29/04/2011 13:56

6/10 for bride's dress. She looked dull and tired and older. (sorry)

10/10 for her sister. Fab dress and beautiful face and body. Ok she could do with less tan but still fab, fresh and sexy.

10/10 for Carol's dress. Simple and nice.

Below 0/10 for Beatrice and Eugenie (WTF)

A big fat 0/10 for Sam (she always looks like a frighten little girl)

ShoutyHamster · 29/04/2011 13:56

Broad in the beam!!! LOVE IT Grin

My grandmother's comment would have been 'You'd get some soup out of those hams'

!!!!!!

hf128219 · 29/04/2011 13:57

Sarah Chatto here

The Duchess of Cambridge looked very lovely. Just perfect I thought.

How nervous her mother looked - and her father! Bless them.

Good reading from brother James.

breathing · 29/04/2011 13:57

who is sam?

GitAwfMayLend · 29/04/2011 13:57

I could clout Victoria B. I am usually a huge fan but she missed a trick - looked OK neckline up (like the hat) but the hemline and GOD those hideous Colleen Rooney shoes.

GitAwfMayLend · 29/04/2011 13:59

Well I typed fat but thought broad in beam was kinder.

Grin

Carole Middleton looked brilliant, so elegant. Silly to say Kate looks too thin, evidently follows after her mother.
