Royal Bride: Meghan Markle She is now referred to as Her Royal Highness, Princess Harry of Wales. They will officially be known as the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. Megan Markle wore an off white wedding gown with exquisitely embroidered flower finish around the cathedral veil (5m plus 1m), attached by an exquisite tiara. This was borrowed from The Queen's collection, dating1932 and used to belang to Queen Mary. The very elegant wedding gown is a simple long-sleeved dress with a boat neck by Clare Waight Keller for Givenchy. It was decided that the bride will walk into the chapel and down the aisle by herself, into the qoir, where she was joined by Prince Charles shortly before "given away" to her Prince - breaking with yet another British tradition. For the evening: The Duchess of Sussex wore a very classy white crepe satin open shoulder, halter/turtle neck, flowy mermaid with train - by Stella Mc Cartney.
It is important to note that, while there were 6 bridesmaids and 4 altar boys - if below a certain age - the girls are called flower girls. If above that age, and unmarried, they are fondly referred to as "strooimeisies" in the South of Africa. There can only be one official bridesmaid (called "Bruidsmeisie" or Maid of honour). In South Africa the word "Maid" is still being frowned upon as raci.st, especially in Me Markle's situation, therefore the use of certain language referrals remain prohibited if translated directly. With the increase of guests at a wedding, say above 200, the number of bridesmaids may double and the number of "strooimeisies" may also increase significantly. |
