Love the dress and she looks stunning.

Kate's outfit is drab beyond belief, with the colour doing nothing for her. Also, her make up (blusher) is too heavy.

PeanutButterBunny · 20/05/2017 13:31

Elegant and classy. Makes a change from all those boring strapless dresses.

Whisky2014 · 20/05/2017 13:32

I love pippas dress.
I hate Kate's looks really fuddy fuddy.
Will and Harry look ramshackled and will just needs to embrace the balding. The side hair is too long so make it ball but look worse!
Spenders trousers are too long.

The children are absolutely adorable and the married couple look very happy. Looks like it's gona be an awesome day!

High neck is stunning...love the lace on the top part but it reminds me of my old Nan's curtains all over the bottom bit too! Grin (presume was done to avoid any bum pictures?! )

She looks incredibly elegant though.

TheBenignSorceress · 20/05/2017 13:33

I think she looks lovely with the caveat that the skirt looks like it has too much fabric in it and her tiny waist could have been better accentuated. I preferred her sister's dress by this one is very pretty.

TheBenignSorceress · 20/05/2017 13:33

I bought she would go for something columny.

McTufty · 20/05/2017 13:36

I wouldn't look twice at Pippa's dress if I saw it in a bridal shop but she makes it work and the overall look is stunning. It is very classy. Usually I like something a bit more interesting on a bride but this is gorgeous on her, and doesn't look drab at all.

I actually think Kate looks nice too - I imagine she went for something understated to avoid allegations of upstaging.

I agree with PP about the men - I really prefer there to be a theme to the members of the wedding party l. I think they all look a bit messy.

And those flowers - wow!

Looks like a beautiful happy family wedding, I think they've knocked it out of the park and I am thrilled for Pippa!

I like Eugine's dress. I like the shape and fit. The colour is a little dark, but its a colour I would choose to wear myself anyway.

Pippa looks very elegant and classy.

Love the little flower girls and page boys - I would never get away with putting little ones in such traditional outfits but do think secretly they look very cute; oh - and those little boys can be taunted at their 18th birthday parties by the pictures of them in the little pants so much!

diddl · 20/05/2017 13:40

I don't like the bare back,(which doesn't matter as it's not my dress) but other than I think that it's lovely & really suits her.

Love her hair & the veil.

Think she looks really lovely.

Hulababy · 20/05/2017 13:42

Re the nanny - she is also there representing the company she works with. The uniform is key for that, and I think most Norland Nannies wear uniform for formal events. Like the little prince and princess is their traditional outfits for official engagements, it makes them all less obviously recognisable when out and about day to day.

Love that picture of Kate shushing the children. I wonder if it's going to be The photo of the wedding.

Love the roses around the church entrance also.

Pippa looks lovely.

NotYoda · 20/05/2017 13:47

Absolutely lovely dress

Terrible pantaloons

Kate looks nice

Mustang27 · 20/05/2017 13:49

She is so teeny I'm very jealous and I just love the picture of Kate fixing her dress. She looks beautiful.

SomuchSlow · 20/05/2017 13:50

@Madbengalmum I did wonder if Kate was pregnant when I saw the photographs of her. Also wondered if that was why they spent last night in London rather than Berkshire.

WipsGlitter · 20/05/2017 13:51

She looks gorgeous! Lovely dress. Kate looks fab. Love the picture of her fixing the train, sisters!

Beatrice looks lovely. She's really pretty.

Donna Air looks lovely.

Can't wait for this weeks hello!

GrouchyKiwi · 20/05/2017 13:51

It is a lovely dress, but I do agree with PPs that the lace is a little heavy. She looks so happy.

Love Kate's dress, actually. And the photos of her rearranging Pippa's skirts and shushing the children are great.

kel1493 · 20/05/2017 13:52

Personally I don't really like all lace dresses and high necks, so I'm not too keen. But I'm sure it's lovely if you like that kind of thing.
Am I the only one who noticed how similar her bouquet was to Kate's though?

RoseandVioletcreams · 20/05/2017 13:54

I like P dress, its elegant - lovely and I think she looks gorgeous but in future pics it doesnt stand out to me as unusual or characterful. Ie some old wedding pics of various aristos....have caught my breath they look elegant but unusual and exotic. Maybe dress 2 will be more fun.

InvisibleKittenAttack · 20/05/2017 13:55

lovely dress.

I really like Eugenine's dress, agree it's a shape that really flatters her. (and I do believe she is one of the only young Royals to have a 'proper' 9-5 job, something at an art gallery/auction house - which I only know from reading a really bitchy story slating her 'boring' workwear wardrobe about a year ago - lots of photos of her wearing sensible shift dresses and jackets in navy/grey/black and walking to work in flats carrying an "ugly" bag, which to my eye looked like "Can't be arsed carrying two bags, so my work one has to fit a laptop in" - she looked like every other youngish commuter going to a normal office job).

AuntPol · 20/05/2017 13:56

Eugenie is vey pretty, isn't she.

thatone · 20/05/2017 13:57

Like (not love) the design but there is something odd about the proportions - waist seems too low.

BertrandRussell · 20/05/2017 13:59

I thought the armholes didn't look quite right in the picture I saw........

Edsheeranalbumparty · 20/05/2017 13:59

Wow, there's not many people that could carry of the sleeve and high neck of Pippa's dress!

She looks lovely, they all look very happy actually Smile

InvisibleKittenAttack · 20/05/2017 14:01

Bertrand - actually yes, I thought the arms didn't sit right - I thought it looked like she'd done that standard bridal thing of losing weight/toning up just before the wedding so the dress has to be altered, which often leaves things like arm holes sitting a bit wrong, but then I remembered she's always been tiny and toned, so probably was designed that way!

dementedma · 20/05/2017 14:02

Who is the super twatty guest in the garish tartan trousers? Hideous. If you are wearing trews, wear a decent tartan ffs!
