She was smitten with Philip the first time she met him as a teenager and waited a long time to finally marry him.

Yes, she was a beautiful happy bride. I think that they are still a beautiful couple. I enjoyed the Royal Wedding yesterday too.

Have you seen pics of young Prince Phillip? I'd be smiling from ear to ear also!

He is still nice looking and looks great for 96, I think that is his age.

She surely looked like a grumpy old biddy during yesterday's wedding. You'd think she would have been happy for Harry since he's supposed to be a favorite. Maybe she's mad about all the pre-wedding drama, which wasn't Harry or Meghan's fault. Youd think she could have put on a happy face for their sakes.

I loved some of the trivia about Queen Elizabeth's wedding. In her wedding dress a 4 leaf clover 'for luck' was embroidered in for her Her dress was made during some hard times in Britain and she had to use 'clothing ration couples' that all in britain had to use to pay for the dress. The goverment gave her an extra 200 coupons and people from all over britain even sent her coupons.

So did Victoria Beckham.

Maybe they both needed a cookie.

Victoria(Posh) Beckham also. All black and never a smile. She looked like she lwas at a funeral. Wonder if David and she had a fight before they left.

Certain pics of a young Phillip look like Prince Harry.

Maybe she doesn’t like Meg and sees the train wreck coming.

We were typing at the same time. The Queen at least has can use her age as an excuse. But Victoria just looked silly. Her husband makes them a "royal couple" she needs to be more pleasant.

I think she's got RBF. Also, she seems reserved by nature. She is not a natural "smiler" in public. I've also heard she takes her religion very seriously and may have been contemplative in church. Her grandsons adore her, so that's enough for me.

Queen Elizabeth has seen many changes throughout her lifetime.

Imagine it's disheartening watching certain traditions go by the wayside.

HRH Lifetime of service, respect her very much. Experiencing so many difficulties with her family not much different from families everywhere.

God Save The Queen-

I know! I was like, "Girl, you are at the Royal Wedding and on the arm of a very hot man. There are millions of women who would kill to be you right now."

This is a nice post. I just looked inside of my late mom's wedding dress to see if it had a 4 leaf clover in it. No, it doesn't, but my parents were married 10/06/45 in London when my dad was stationed there in the AF. My grandma made my mom's beautiful wedding dress out of a silk parachute. It has leg of mutton sleeves & 20 tiny covered silk buttons down the back. Just beautiful!
