Looks great, especially the details at the waist that go down the dresshttps://whatkatewore.com/2020/07/18...wedding-sir-toms-special-ceremony/#more-66990 This has a few pictures of the Queen in the dress from the State Opening of Parliament in '66. Originally no puff sleeves
They have already added a band to the bottom for the length so could have added a bit more, I agree. Also I think she chose the puff sleeves as she couldn't go bare shouldered in church. I quite like the puff sleeves but dont like the band. I noticed the skirt wasnt as puffed as when HM wore it and didnt notice why until it was pointed out. However I still think it was beautiful and vintage.Going to get so much hate for this but while I love the sentiment behind the day to me the queen looked breath taking in the dress while Bea just somehow doesn't and I think it's the addition of the puff sleeves and the length being neither hear or there (shes obviously taller than her gran so can't be helped) but to my eye I think it was a perfect dress before and the tiara needed to be sat on an elegant hair style ....don't lynch me guys.
I certainly won’t lynch you because I agree with everything you’ve posted.Going to get so much hate for this but while I love the sentiment behind the day to me the queen looked breath taking in the dress while Bea just somehow doesn't and I think it's the addition of the puff sleeves and the length being neither hear or there (shes obviously taller than her gran so can't be helped) but to my eye I think it was a perfect dress before and the tiara needed to be sat on an elegant hair style ....don't lynch me guys.
I’ve seen this said several times on this forum, but can’t find any reliable sources that confirm it. Is this purely speculation or is there a source?I hope Bea didn’t compromise. I hope she decided she wanted to be married more than just have a “royal wedding”. She gets the short straw all the time, unkind comments on her looks etc. I loved the details of the wedding, love the joy on the Queens face. Maybe part of the swift date was to ensure her grandparents would both be there. Prince Philip is suffering with pancreatic cancer.
Really pretty wedding. The photos are all gorgeous.
I am so glad for Bea's sake that both her grandparents were able to attend, Philip is 99 after all,so he has seen all but two grandchildren marry.I’ve seen this said several times on this forum, but can’t find any reliable sources that confirm it. Is this purely speculation or is there a source?
I agree that Beatrice’s wedding looks lovely - beautiful church, gorgeous flowers, happy bride and groom.
Is it supposed to be prostate cancer rather than pancreatic cancer? I doubt a 99 year old could survive pancreatic cancer, whereas people often die of old age still suffering from prostate cancer.I hope Bea didn’t compromise.

I don’t like it either!

I don’t think there is any reliable source to it. Lady C massively plays up her inside connections. It’s interesting gossip but I wouldn’t trust her further than I could throw her. The peerage doesn’t like gossips/braggarts and she is probably only present at very low key events and mingles with people far down the line and away from the RF if at all. There are enough Lord and Ladies (nevermind that you can just buy the title) that are completely insignificant, not seen as part of the real in-group. She was married to the Lord- the younger brother, not the heir to the Duke title- for a whole two months (good that she got out though. That guy sounds vile). Hard to believe she ever had much connections. I think she uses her title to make money. Without the big L nobody would give shit. Very much like our „favourite“ Duchess if you think of it.I’ve seen this said several times on this forum, but can’t find any reliable sources that confirm it.

On top of that pancreatic cancer is one of the most aggressive cancers, most people get the diagnosis and are gone soon after. You basically said that, but I just want to re-iterate.Is it supposed to be prostate cancer rather than pancreatic cancer?

That would make more sense. I lost my father to pancreatic cancer 16 years ago and each time it is mentioned I get pangs of grief. Fair enough if Philip actually is confirmed as having it, but if it is just unconfirmed conjecture I do wish people would stop repeating it.Is it supposed to be prostate cancer rather than pancreatic cancer?

Yes my very healthy 55 year old uncle was dead from it within 6 months. I thought it was bad but didnt want to mention it in case he was just unlucky.n top of that pancreatic cancer is one of the most aggressive cancers, most people get the diagnosis and are gone soon after.

Awkward gap between the Queen and Prince Philip - not technically from the same household...
The flowers were lovely! I agree a touch of colour was much more interesting than typical white royal bouquet.I loved Bea's flowers and I love that they were colourful and not typically white, white flowers on a white dress are too boring and samey, they blend in like camouflage...
Same! I really really want to see a pic of Bea & Eug from Bea's wedding, but maybe they'll release one such picture at a later date, like a "happy b'day" post or something like that. They often do that (all the Windsors, e.g. Eug also released some pics much later or K&W released some pics only recently..).I thought Bea looked beautiful. I’d really like to see photos of her with Eugenie on the day. They look like they have a very close relationship.
