KJB Review: The Royal Wedding

Saturday, May 19th, 2018 Prince Harry married Meghan Markle. 

The attendees were ranged from in my opinion, random Brits, aristocrats, the royal family and celebrities. Prince Harry's wedding was certainly more star-studded than Prince William's in 2011. 

I woke up at 4am on Saturday to watch E's The Real Princess Diaries: From Diana to Meghan, definitely not necessarily worth it, but I was preparing for the 5am wedding. 

The guests began arriving at 10am at least televised and had to be in their seats by 11am, when the Royal Family would begin arriving. 

The guest list DID NOT DISAPPOINT!

There was Oprah... most people had a ticker tape banner explaining how the guest knows the couple. Oprah was just recognized as Oprah, so I guess that's that. 


Idris Elba and fiancé.


Amal & George Clooney, and honestly the Internet is undefeated!



Amal began the mustard yellow trend of the day and truly looked amazing!


Serena Williams and husband

The cast of Suits!

Sarah Rafferty, aka the FABULOUS Donna!



Gina Torres, aka Jessica Pearson



Patrick J. Adams aka Mike



Rick Hoffman aka Louis Litt... and let me tell you- the "Litt up" memes were KILLING ME!


Gabriel Macht


The Beckhams, friends of the Royal Family




James Corden and Wife



Sofia Wellesley's dress and fascinator may just be my favorite ensemble!


Joss Stone, friends with Prince Harry... honestly shocking!


Pippa Middleton Matthews and husband




Victoria Aitken was giving me Formation Tour Beyoncé vibes!








2011
To say I was disappointed by Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice's fascinators is beyond words!




Meghan's momma, Doria with her locs and nose ring was nothing short of fantastic!


When we first began watching the televised event, we had two hours until we got to see Meghan Markle. There was two hours, there was tons of speculations on what she would wear.



The Princes arrived on the scene!

Prince Harry and Prince William

Kate Middleton was an outfit repeater but looked fantastic even if it was cream!


Kate arrived to the wedding with the flower girls and page boys, right before we saw Meghan Markle. 

Finally the reveal...





While the veil was INCREDIBLE! As was the borrowed tiara... the dress left A LOT to be desired.



Did she look great? Of course! She's beautiful and she looked happier beyond words.




But we've seen this dress... on Jennifer Lopez in The Wedding Planner and Anne Hathaway in The Princess Diaries 2 {except even Mia's had lace that gave it some depth}... this dress is boring and basic af.


Holly Nichols of HNicholsIllustration is incredible!

The Happy Couple!










Loved the choirs ensembles, they sang Stand By Me!




Now this Reception dress was MORE LIKE IT!!!!


What were your thoughts on the fascinators? The dresses? The invitees? Meghan's dress?! Comment below.

Moral of the story, the bad boy of our dreams has a official grown up and is off the market!

Congratulations to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex

Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex

Do yourself a favor and look up the wedding portraits of the Royal Family, the happy couple and the flower and page boys and be prepared to cry forever... I suppose we all have a chance again in 30 years when Prince George gets married.
