Which fairy tale wedding would that be? Cinderella's?

First to say Pippa's bum :o

Not seen Zara's actually thought Katie and Wills was pretty classy given the occasion

Jelly15 · 04/08/2011 22:56

I loved both weddings. Both were stylish in there own, very different, ways.

YABU. Both weddings were lovely, and Wills and Kate's wedding day was fabulous!

BET Zara's was so much more fun.

YABU to say Kate and Will's was tacky though.

I didnt like either of the dresses, but I did like the trees in the abbey at Kates. And the not turfing out a prebooked couple and the not costing us half a million to police were bonuses I suppose.

Im just not a wedding person....

SecretNutellaFix · 04/08/2011 23:03

They were different to each other being that they were for 2 very different couples. One was for someone who is highly likely to become our monarch and the other a more minor royal.

I thought that neither were tacky, nor showy giving consideration to who was getting married in each instance.

hairfullofsnakes · 04/08/2011 23:15

how do you know? were you at either of them?

very nasty and unreasonable

GypsyMoth · 04/08/2011 23:18

yabu.....but guess you have realised that by now!

queenmaeve · 04/08/2011 23:19

There was not an ounce of tack at kates wedding. Even v beckham looked demure. Thought zaras was lovely too.

maras2 · 04/08/2011 23:24

I loved both of them , though secretely I'd rather have been invited to Kate and Will's wedding and T'other's reception.

and how about that other one in Monaco (if I am right) The bride didn't look happy and I heard she tried to scape before the day? And the couple spent the honey moon apart..
I like Kate and Wills, but I didn't like the wedding, I don't know why.. I liked the church's decoration, and The Queens outfit, but could'nt agree with anything else. Not criticising, just saying I would do very differently.

And I think Zara looked so natural and efortless, I loved her hair!

I wouldn/t say tacky but ridiculous, yes.

Apparently Zara's wedding was reported as being like a normal wedding but with better flowers.

SixtyFootDoll · 04/08/2011 23:59

Well apparently the church folk were a bit snuffy about large plastic urns of flowers in the church at Zara's wedding.
That sounds tacky to me.

I thought both weddings looked fab, vert different, but lovely.

and Zara looks a lot healthier too. I like the way she seems comfortable in her body and she can wear anything she will look gorgeous and bubbly.

While Z would do anything to just live a normal life, C would do anything to become a royal. Very different weddings for very different brides indeed
