A winter wedding with snow and frost can look magical. A November one where's there's more chance of rain and leaves everywhere, maybe not so much!

Looks a bit chilly on the balcony! At least they have a fur rug to stand on. Most of the lights in the palace weren't on because of the situation, but the throne room was lit for photos.

She does indeed, @paradyning !
Quite a diversity of style on show there.
Thanks for the details of Anne's dress. It was quite striking and stylish, beautiful fabric.

Is Stephanie's daughter-in-law (Marie?) pregnant?

RomainingCalm · 20/11/2022 16:19

If I've read this right Anne got married on 14th November, the same day as Charles' birthday. Can you imagine the AIBU? 😂

Maireas · 20/11/2022 16:24

She did! His 25th. I don't think he minded.

Someone I know saw Anne's wedding dress up close and said it was really lovely and very skilfully constructed. The style certainly has lasted very well.

DisforDarkChocolate · 20/11/2022 17:47

I saw a programme on Anne's dress many years ago and the said to make sure the sleeves hung as they wanted the based the design on a football.

I got married in a November, I just thought I couldn’t be doing with worrying about if it would be sunny, and it was a nice time to have a celebration between august and Christmas. It was also cheaper, not that that would be a consideration for the royals at all! 😂

Somebody upthread mentioned Geri Horner née Halliwell . well she’s made it to the Palace.

Copied and pasted from NMR…

‘On November 17, 2022, the Queen Consort hosted a reception for winners of The Queen's Commonwealth Essay Competition 2022 at Buckingham Palace in London. The Queen’s Commonwealth Essay Competition (QCEC) is the world’s oldest international writing competition for schools’

winning entries were read by ambassadors including Geri H.

Geri appears to have reinvented herself and only wears white these days!

Eaumyword · 21/11/2022 07:09

I am in awe of how white Geri's clothes are, especially as she has (gorgeous) horses and dogs.
I suspect she's not the one keeping the clothes clean though 😂
She has glorious hair - would look fab branching out into an Autumnal colour palette.

Spudlet · 21/11/2022 08:00

I don’t think Geri keeps anything clean herself 😆 She does look nice in white but it gets a bit strange scrolling through her instagram feed after a while!

Maireas · 21/11/2022 08:02

I think we're about ready for a new thread.....

I think Geri buys into the "you gotta have a gimmick" and going full "county" to re-style herself as Lady of the Manor would be too much but she needs to distance herself from crotch-grabbing ladette Ginger Spice.
Not sure what my gimmick would be -tiaras?

Maireas · 21/11/2022 09:01

That could be the gimmick for all of us, @chesterelly1 !
