Wearing a dress designed by Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen's fashion house, Kate Middleton arrives for her royal wedding to Prince William of Wales at Westminster Abbey on April 29, 2011 in London.

Kate Middleton, with her father, Michael Middleton, waves as she arrives for her royal wedding.
Miss Middleton wished for her dress to combine tradition and modernity with the artistic vision that characterizes Alexander McQueen's work. Miss Middleton worked closely with Sarah Burton in formulating the design of her dress," the palace said in a statement regarding Kate Middleton's wedding dress.
As she walks into Westminister Abbey with her father, she looks back to wave at her adoring fans and public.
Kate Middleton's dress is made from ivory and white satin gazar, and the bodice and skirt feature hand-cut English lace and French Chantilly lace. The train measures almost nine feet long. Here she arrives for her royal wedding to Prince William of Wales at Westminster Abbey on April 29, 2011 in London.

Kate Middleton's veil is made of layers of soft ivory silk tulle with a trim of hand-embroidered flowers. It is held in place by a Cartier "halo" tiara, lent to Middleton by Queen Elizabeth II. The tiara was presented to Princess Elizabeth (now the Queen) by her mother on her 18th birthday.
The lace applique for the bodice and skirt was hand-made by the Royal School of Needlework. Individual flowers were hand-cut from lace and hand-engineered onto ivory silk tulle to create the dress' unique design, which incorporates the rose, thistle, daffodil and shamrock.
The bride's earrings, diamond-set stylized oak leaves with a pear-shaped diamond set drop and a pave set diamond acorn suspended from the center, are by Robinson Pelham and were inspired by the Middleton family's new coat of arms. The earrings, which were made to match the tiara, were a personal gift to Middleton from her parents for her wedding day.
The embroidery is just stunning.

IT's My Thoughts 
Amazing pictures, – quite like the kid. Bless him. I’m just wondering when his wife gonna start having an affair and get killed by so called Royals. Anyway its a common practice in monarchy to divorce. Lolzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz 😀
You know i think she is the smartest royal bride to enter the palace. and do u know why? because there are no illusions. when diana got married it was all a fairytale but everyone knows the truth of the royals now. no illusions and no expectations. plus she has lived with this guy for a good sum of years. she has already lived part of the royal life. if you noticed she has slowly been introduced to everything. unlike diana who was just thrown in at the deep end and left to deal with it on her own. 😛
Yeh right, don’t trust em that’s y they settle the divoce contract before hand. Lolzzzzzz its just isn’t worth getting married for the sake of a symbol. Anyway time will tell couple of more years and then another one bite to dust. 😀
Royal Laden’s Lol
