And I think we all can agree that it's much more fun if we stick to critiquing the clothes rather than the women!

Mia Tindall is hilarious. Her expression in Eugenie's wedding photos were priceless.

I've got my Philip Treacy hat on and a glass of champagne poured, so all ready here!

GlamGiraffe · 06/07/2019 14:24

If wills and Kate are driving in alone and no apps of the nanny and kids are we sure mini cambridge are even attending?
I know they travel separately but it raises an eyebrow.
25 guests
H&M
W&k
Pc&c
Doria
4godparents + spouses
A couple of Mm's friends ( perhaps from Wimbledon if they're not from wimbledon)
Cousins like the tindalls
How many children then?
None of Harry's friends or other family like B and E?
Very intimate!

I just checked the list of people that were at DS's baptism and it looks just like the one you listed.

yellowalstroemeria · 06/07/2019 14:45

The Metro (yes, high quality journalism) says mini Cambridges are not attending.

Gooseysgirl · 06/07/2019 14:51

I think it's very odd that the Cambridge kids are not attending.

hopeishere · 06/07/2019 14:58

Lots of people don't want mods at things. Is there a lunch or is it just the service / photos and home?

hopeishere · 06/07/2019 14:59

MODs = kids

yellowalstroemeria · 06/07/2019 15:13

I find it quite strange as well. I don't even think the 'kids at things' argument really holds up... these kids are going to have to sit through service after service due to their positions.

Haggisfish · 06/07/2019 15:17

Checking in also!

hopeishere · 06/07/2019 15:17

Yeah. When they're older.

UrsulaPandress · 06/07/2019 15:22

It all seems a bit joyless.

Notmyrealname855 · 06/07/2019 15:45

Ok so I did check the Fail (breaching my DM ban...). Are there no pics of them arriving at the church as was the case at G, C and L’s christenings? None of the families arriving? I thought that would still be the case here. So no pics other than the official group portraits?

I think it’s Harry pushing this. I can see why he hates the press, but him imposing these restrictions isn’t him having control on the press at all. It controls his literal image (no photos) - but not the commentary. If anything the commentary is 10x more out of his control. It allows others to fill Harry’s silence with any interpretation they want.

If we get a jigsaw pic I’m going to be so sad!

Also, family events tbh make MM’s lack of family more pronounced. Must be sad for her that for whatever reason she hasn’t got a big new family at all, H and her look so nuclear :( Now would be a great opportunity to show they’ve made their own family (with friends) so hope we get to see what. Otherwise all a bit puney and sad :(

Myimaginarycathasfleas · 06/07/2019 15:58

Those fans saying how hurt and let down they feel are the creepy die hard ones. Most of us probably don't care one way or another except for the frocks and baby pics.

Pretty soon there'll be nobody left to piss off.

ElspethFlashman · 06/07/2019 16:02

Tiggy Legge Bourke was at it (looking well, I have to say, but she always did imo).

So speculation she's a godmother.

JudgeRindersMinder · 06/07/2019 16:07

Just looking at these pictures of Bea and Eug at Celina Dion-picture 13, how much does Eugenie look like her mum! I’ve only ever seen her as looking like her dad, but I think she’s pure Fergie in that photo

hopeishere · 06/07/2019 16:18

Photos are on Instagram!

Kate in pink!
Meghan in white.
Doria in pink.
Camilla in white.

Nogravyforyou · 06/07/2019 16:18

Photos on Instagram, MM in white, KM in pink.

hopeishere · 06/07/2019 16:20

Kate's in a hatband.
Harry's suit is ghastly.

Notmyrealname855 · 06/07/2019 16:21

Ugly suit, cute baby!

hopeishere · 06/07/2019 16:22

Kate's in a hatband.
Harry's suit is ghastly.
Meghan's is Dior apparently.

AppleKatie · 06/07/2019 16:24

I quite like Harry’s suit. He looks so happy!

Kate’s dress a little shorter than usual?

Lovely to see the baby at last 🤣

AppleKatie · 06/07/2019 16:25

Who are the two ladies I don’t recognise? (I realise that’s a stupid question!)

peridito · 06/07/2019 16:26

Could somebody post a link ???

hopeishere · 06/07/2019 16:27

Diana's sisters. Can't remember their names Sarah and Jane I think.
