I see why Princess Diana was easily the most popular Royal. She would have SMILED through this entire wedding. Fortunately, Prince Charles and Meghan’s Mom seemed genuinely happy for their children.

[@fernedewar9194]

When he lifted her veil it was magic

[@alexmcbean2225]

Yes. It was

[@stephaniegittinger7980]

The look on her face, and the way he said "hi." *Swoon*

Hearing the organ music, and voices as he lifted the veil... i was speechless.

[@ChandraYClady]

Yes it was everything. One of the wedding highlights in my book.

[@udasan]

So true! I could see and feel their love all the way here in my home. 😂😍😍

[@ania5038]

He abandoned everything for a Z-list actress who is only using him for his status and titles. I don't want a man who feels like he needs to isolate himself from everyone and everything he loves for me. I'm with a man I feel equal to and with whom we can both live together and apart.

The best looking woman in the royal....Meghan is fun, beautiful educated, strong, has her own money...beautiful on the inside as well as the outside. She's no dummy and know the royal score, because of her love for Harry she gave up plenty, they were meant to be together in spite of what others may say....And as usually unattractive women that wish it was them, are the worst and make nasty comments. I speak many blessings, they're going to need it in this world.

I'm not even British, but to all the people complaining about the wedding being expensive, there are celebrities and rich people who spend 5x, 10x or even 1000x more money on their weddings than the British royal family does.

So the haters can stop complaining.

It's incredible, in Germany, which is where I'm from, I was part of a rather big children's choir of the methodist church touring through the country twice a year and this is the very song we used to sing at the end of many concerts (in the German version _Was ich erträume_ ). The cover of course said it was originally an Irish folksong, but that royal wedding ten years later, was the first time I'd heard the music in years and the first time ever I heard it in English! And I'm not a cryer but that was such a melancholic moment! 😊 Beautiful piece in whatever language and very fitting to the both traditional and individual character of this wedding! 💛

Sadly Diana was the sacrifice she was only meant to give birth to an heir and a spare.
