Wedding, wows!

Meghan wears dress by Clare

Meghan Markle’s wedding gown desgined by an acclaimed British designer Clare Waight Keller had a selection of flora, including an Indian Lotus, in her veil as she walked down flower-bedecked nave of the iconic St George’s Chapel. The veil of Meghan’s  boat-necked, sculpted white dressgown represented the distinctive flora of each Commonwealth country united in one spectacular floral composition, Kensington Palace said in a statement.

India’s Lotus, Pakistan’s Jasmine and Bangladesh’s White Water Lily were part of Meghan’s five-metres long silk tulle veil. — PTI

A vow, a statement 

Meghan chose to omit the word ‘obey’ from her vows, following in the footsteps of Princess Diana and Kate Middleton. Her omitted wedding vow read, “ I Meghan, take you, Harry, to be my husband, to have and to hold from this day forward; for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death us do part; according to God’s holy law. In the presence of God I make this vow.” With the intentional removal of the word ‘obey’ from her wedding vows, Meghan has once again shown support to feminism, a cause she has been a crusader of for a long time.

No such change was observed in Prince Harry’s vows, which read, “ I Harry, take you, Meghan, to be my wife, to have and to hold from this day forward; for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death us do part; according to God’s holy law. In the presence of God I make this vow.”  — ANI
