Future King and Queen Prince William and Kate Middleton celebrate their 13th wedding anniversary. They were married on April 29th, 2011.
The Royal Wedding Was Lavish And Beautiful
The two were married at Westminster Abbey in London. Thousands of people flooded the streets and watched the ceremony.
The wedding was a beautiful display of pomp and circumstance. Every detail was perfect, and the bride looked radiant in an Alexander McQueen gown created by former designer Sarah Burton.
The Victorian-style dress had an ivory lace bodice, collar, sleeves, and a satin skirt with a nine-foot train. The dress paid homage to the United Kingdom with its elegant lace embroidery.
Kate’s wedding bouquet was lovely and understated. The flowers included myrtle, lily of the valley, sweet William, and hyacinth.
The Prince and Princess of Wales wanted a chocolate biscuit cake in addition to the gigantic eight-tier wedding cake that necessitated removing a door in Buckingham Palace to allow it through.
Kate wore Queen Elizabeth’s dazzling Cartier Halo Tiara for her wedding, which was from the Queen’s special selection she had since she was 18 years old.
The Cartier Halo Tiara comprises 739 brilliant-cut diamonds and 149 baguette diamonds. It’s difficult to imagine that a relationship worthy of such a lavish affair had such a sweet, humble beginning.
The couple connected at St. Andrews University in Scotland in September 2001, where they became good friends.
“I actually think I went bright red when I met you and sort of scuttled off, feeling very shy about meeting you,”
Kate Middleton told Prince William years later during their engagement interview.
Prince William explained,
“We just spent more time with each other and had a good giggle, had lots of fun, and realized we shared the same interests and had a really good time.”
Kate’s See-Through Dress at A Charity Fashion Show Changed Everything
William also felt that he could trust Kate right from the get-go, which was important to him, considering his royal status and public profile.
A famous charity fashion exhibit at their college is known to be the turning point in their relationship. Kate walked down the runway in a see-through black dress with black underwear underneath.
The moment is depicted in the final season of “The Crown,” when Kate Middleton’s look-alike, actress Meg Bellamy, strutted her stuff in the dress.
The risqué outfit and Kate’s natural beauty captured the Prince’s attention. From that point on, the two students became romantically involved.
The two of them became a couple, and William proposed to her in October 2010 during a romantic vacation in Kenya, Africa. He gave her Princess Diana’s sapphire engagement ring.
William said he proposed to Kate in Africa because.
“The African continent holds a very special place in my heart. It’s the place my father took my brother and me shortly after our mother died. And when deciding where best to propose to Catherine, I could think of no more fitting place than Kenya to get down on one knee.”
The Prince and Princess of Wales expanded their family following their unforgettable wedding. Kate gave birth to Prince George in 2013, Princess Charlotte in 2015, and Prince Louis in 2018. Here’s to their 13th wedding anniversary and many more to come.
