Amal Clooney : bright orange with assymetric hem.
Victoria Beckham : navy blue with expression to curdle milk
Kate : pastel Alexander McQueen dress coat and serene expression.
I would love another Windsors special!!

The vows:

To have and to hold, to love and tequila.

SHOT!!! GrinGrinGrinGrinGrin

Ha ha 😂 😂!!

I’m sure it will be televised. Eugenie is the instagram Princess.
How will they top the gospel choir and the American preacher?

I think the guest list will be pretty glitzy; beyond the ubiquitous Elton and the Beckhams.

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 20/08/2018 21:57

that looks like something Kate might wear today. Except the Queen is pushing 50 in that shot and Kate isn't even 40!

To be honest, I don’t think Kate’s style will change much between now and aged 70.
Bea & Euj on the other hand will be like the Royal version of Ab Fab!

Clionba · 20/08/2018 22:02

Those Clooneys are trying to rival the Beckhams for royal wedding appearances. Chelsy Davey, Cressida Bonas etc etc. Oprah?

Quantumblue · 20/08/2018 22:39

So envious of them seeing Hamilton ! I think Eugenie's wedding is somehow missing the mark and will really raise questions about what is the York girls' point. It should be lower key and private like Zara's.
I think eug's dress will have an obvious tribute to her mother - didn't Sarah have bees sewn on her veil?

QueenOfTheAndals · 20/08/2018 22:53

Ed Sheran is bound to be there. He's probably forgiven her (or was it Beatrice?) for slicing his face while attempting to knight him with James Blunt's sword. Now there's a sentence I never thought I'd write...

Eugenie is doing the whole open top carriage bit? I really, really think that's going too far.

Has no-one senior had a word?!

VanillaSugar · 21/08/2018 06:28

Ed Sheehan has since denied that incident and said he made the whole thing up Hmm

Clionba · 21/08/2018 06:37

Mmmm Hmm possibly Ed Sheeran is thinking about a possible genuine knighthood at some future date....

QueenOfTheAndals · 21/08/2018 07:25

Actually good point @ItsNiceItsDifferentItsUnusual. I heard that she's inviting the public into the grounds of the castle but not sure anything was said about an open-top carriage ride. It'll be a bit risky in October anyway.

Sarah had S’s and anchors on her veil and a whacking great A on the train.

QueenOfTheAndals · 21/08/2018 08:59

God love Fergie, she doesn't do subtle!

So Eugenie will have Tequila bottles sewn onto her train. GrinGrinGrinGrinGrin

VanillaSugar · 21/08/2018 09:05

And miniature bottles hanging from her veil 😂😆😁🤣

Sorry.

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 21/08/2018 09:12

Maybe she & bea will have "Blood Princess" embroidered on their backs with a coronet above.
Eugenie will have Mrs B embroidered on the train.

I suspect the thistles from her mother's cost of arms will feature some where.

QueenOfTheAndals · 21/08/2018 09:20

"Blood princess" embroidered IN BLOOD. Now that's one way to outdo Meghan...

QueenOfTheAndals · 21/08/2018 09:34

This, by Libby Purves, on the security cost of Eugenie's wedding is very good.

But embroidered in blue, obviously Grin

Clionba · 21/08/2018 10:11

There's also a good article in a similar vein by Yasmin Alibhai Brown in the Independent.
I'm loving the wedding dress suggestions!! GrinGrin

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 21/08/2018 12:58

Yasmin Alibai-Brown article.
She is spot on. It’s basically 2 million for a 30 minute carriage ride.
Hopefully this will be the last overblown wedding till Prince George.

Clionba · 21/08/2018 13:05

What about Beatrice? Andrew will want equivalency at least!

Quantumblue · 21/08/2018 13:05

Bra is going to want everything Eugenie has, when it is her turn.

TheCraicDealer · 21/08/2018 13:41

According to Elle magazine, Meghan has already spent three quarters of a million pounds on clothes since her wedding. The woman who stood up for race and gender equality now becomes a symbol of grotesque unfairness, unearned superiority and upper-class hubris.

Is Yasmin on MN? I We cited that Elle article a few weeks ago!
