And say Eugenie won hands down re her style? I thought she was elegant and regal and beautiful.

I know! I'm shocked to be honest! I've been wondering if the offending word, ie. t*p, had another meaning of which I am unaware.

Why does everyone have to love Meghan? I really don't see what the problem is with someone saying they preferred Eugenie's dress, look etc.

To be fair dont they all wear the same outfit

Rufusthebewilderedreindeer · 12/10/2018 20:33

a silly or annoying person

Thats the dictionary definition, i dont think its so bad

Looked awful in mine! I am related to the Spanish royals Smile heavily pregnancy and couldn't do anything but waddle!

All the royals have looked stunning. Meghan would've looked far too stunning in a fitted and figure flattering dress. She has a very 'utterly stunning and sexy' look about her.

Kate is incredibly regale, she speaks for herself, even in jeans and a top.

Eugene very aristocratic looking. Looks perfect on the day.

Not everyone has to LOVE Meghan, but some people are just so fecking rude about her, and come out with some sly, underhand remarks.

Eugenie looked lovely...she is a perfectly attractive woman but she is no great beauty.

Starlings27 · 12/10/2018 20:42

Nearly all men at weddings wear very similar things, usually. There’s not much to say. FWIW, I didn’t really like the pageboy outfits at either wedding, nor did I like Harry’s dress uniform.

thisneverendingsummer · 12/10/2018 20:44

Also find it a bit weird that people NEVER comment on the men! And it's always WOMEN slagging off other women. Funny that! Wink

TakemedowntoPotatoCity · 12/10/2018 20:48

Looking forward to the Harry v Jack comparison thread. Hmm

Momasita · 12/10/2018 20:49

Groom looks like benedictine cumbersome baby brother.

Hated the dress. Awful.
Loved tiara. But nothing slightly romantic or wow or inspiring about it.
Awful lump of a dress.
Loads of dowdy guests too.

Loved peaches geldoff thought she stood head and shoulders above general crowd.

Sparklingbrook · 12/10/2018 21:00

Peaches Geldof? I don't think so.

PortiaCastis · 12/10/2018 21:01

Must've been her ghost traipsing around in a posh frock singing Immortal Invisible !

DSHathawayGivesMeFannyGallops · 12/10/2018 21:09

I think Meghan & Harry look lovely and very in love together! I personally don't get her "royal" style or find her as stunning as some on here do, but she was a radiant, stylish bride and is an attractive woman. I don't think she's have chosen that dress if she wasn't marrying a royal- probably would have picked something with more oomph, but she looked pretty. Eugenie's dress just ticked more boxes for me.

I stand corrected Grin

Cant say ive made a study of it A0001 and ive not seen the wedding details

Im probably just basing it on weddings ive been to where everyone was in a morning suit

Rufusthebewilderedreindeer · 12/10/2018 21:18

Is that idris elba?

Rufusthebewilderedreindeer · 12/10/2018 21:18

I haven't got my glasses on

Rufusthebewilderedreindeer · 12/10/2018 21:18

If it is mr elba then what he is wearing is obviously the best outfit

A0001 · 12/10/2018 21:24

Certainly is, Rufus... and yes, I think I agree 🤣🤣

Don’t get me wrong. I think there is certainly more variety in the clothes women wear to weddings ... but critiquing, criticising and comparing wedding clothes seems to be an entirety female sport.

Rufusthebewilderedreindeer · 12/10/2018 21:27

I think we are in accord A0001

If yiu cant say something nice dont say anything at all

I work in a dress shop...I practice what i preach Smile

thereallifesaffy · 12/10/2018 21:36

I can't believe me, the arch republican, is saying this but I though Eugenie looked lovely -
So smiley and happy.
And my DD has scoliosis, so seeing Eugenie bare her scar with pride brought a little tear to my eye

Deadbudgie · 12/10/2018 21:51

I thought Eugene looked absolutely amazing, I would have loved, loved a wedding dress like that to me it was an absolutely perfect dressshe looked so happy, so relaxed she’s clearly so confident. Her poor hubby looked like he was bearing the brunt of the nerves. Loved fergies dress too. The ceremony was lovely with the right mix of regal and informal. I think they got everything 100per cent spot on.

I was very disappointed with Meghans dress. I thought it was incredibly plain and I found elements of the wedding butt clenching. But it was her decision what she wore and Harry and Meghan decision on the ceremony,

But the advantage Eugenia had is that she has grown up in that environment so knowing what would look right and how far to push the envelope was prob second nature. Kate and Meghan didn’t have that although Kate would have had much more of an idea.

But if I were to say which wedding I would like for myself it would be eugenies hands down.
