PRINCE NIKOLAOS OF GREECE WEDS
SPETSES, Greece, August 25, 2010 ... Prince Nikolaos of Greece and Tatiana Blatnik were married in a Greek Orthodox service at the Cathedral of Ayios Nikolaos (St. Nicholas) on the island. Guests included Europe’s royal families from Spain, Norway, Sweden, Denmark and the Netherlands.

The groom arrived on the island by luxury boat, the bride made her entrance in a Angel Sanchez gown on a horse-drawn carriage. Following the ceremony the couple left the cathedral in the horse drawn carriage for their reception above Garifalo beach at the back of the old harbour where scaffolding was put into place and heavily armed police and divers monitoring the above areas.

Many guests stayed at the Poseidonion Hotel on the island where a party was held the night before the wedding.

Prince Nikolaos is the second son of King Constantine of Greece and Queen Anne-Marie of Greece. Tatiana Blatnik, 29, is an events planner for Diane Von Furstenburg in London. She was born in Venezuela and educated in Switzerland. Her mother is German and her father Slovenian. She is also the granddaughter of Ellinka Countess von Einsiedel. The couple have been dating for six and a half years and reside in London, England.

Spetses Island Greece is the most remote of the Greek Argo Saronic islands. It is a pine-clad island that has secluded, hidden coves with clear seas or beaches close to waterfront hotels. Cars are banned and those on the island are limited to residents only who can only use them out of town and with a permit. Visitors take a ferry to Spetses.

MONACO, July 20, 2010 ... The Palace in Monaco issued an announcement that Prince Albert II, 52, will marry Charlene Wittstock, 32, in a civil ceremony to take place in the Throne Room of Monaco's Pink Palace next July 8th. On July 9th a religious ceremony will be held for Albert, and the South African former swimmer and schoolteacher, Wittstock, in a site to be confirmed later. This ceremony will be televised and probably

Albert, the son of Prince Rainier and actress Grace Kelly,  succeeded his father in a formal ceremony on July 12, 2005, shortly after Rainer's death. Kelly died in a car accident in 1982. The religious wedding ceremony of Grace and Rainier, pictured right, in April 1956 was televised live which was a pioneering event in its day.
$2-M ROYAL WEDDING

STOCKHOLM, Sweden, June 19, 2010 ... Crown Princess Victoria married her long-time boyfriend and former personal trainer, Daniel Westling, in the Stockholm Cathedral. King Carl XVI Gustaf proudly gave away his oldest daughter, 32, also first in line to succeed him, exactly 34 years to the day after his own wedding to Queen Silvia.

After exchanging vows in an elaborate ceremony, the couple – who met eight years ago at the high-end gym Westling, 36, owns – rode through the capital city in a horse-drawn carriage to the cheers of tens of thousands of people who watched the couple's cortege with royal guards riding on horses.

After the trip both by the cart on land and the royal barge at the sea, the newly-weds went up to the castle together with the King and the Queen, Prime Minister Fredrik Reinfeldt and his wife and other leaders and waved hands to tens of thousands of the crowds gathering around the palace.

"I like to thank you, the Swedish People, it is you who gave me my prince, (who now has the official title of the Duke of Vastergotland), I and my husband are unbelievably happy and grateful," Princess Victoria said to the public.

The first royal wedding since 1976, the 1,500 guests included family members and international royals, including Prince Albert of Monaco and Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands.

ROYAL WEDDING FOR CANADIAN
The newlyweds paid for their own wedding like thousands of couples are doing. Word is that the Royals were not happy with the 55-pages of photographs of the wedding in Hello! magazine. Looks like William and Harry are going to have to elope ...

LONDON, England, May 17, 2008 ... Canadian Autumn Kelly, 30, daughter of Mr. Brian and Mrs. Kitty Kelly of Montreal, and Peter Phillips, 30, son of Princess Anne and Captain Mark Phillips, were married at St. George's Chapel, Windsor Castle.

The bride wore a reported $4,000 cream Sassi Holford wedding gown with buttons and long bows down the back, a tiara "something borrowed" from her new mother-in-law, the Princess Royal, and earrings and a necklace "something new" from the groom. She arrived at the chapel in a maroon State Bentley, was given away by her father, Brian. The bride walked down the aisle to the Prince of Denmark's March by Jeremiah Clarke. The couple vowed to "love, honour, comfort and keep" each other but Miss Kelly did not pledge to obey her husband.

She was attended by six bridesmaids: Zara Phillips, her new sister-in-law, pictured right with Prince Harry, Jacqueline Aubie, a friend from Canada, and Susannah Toynbee, a friend from England, each wearing strapless mint green dresses by Vera Wang, right; and children Stephanie Phillips, Peter's half-sister, Jessica Kelly, Autumn's half-sister, and Rosie Bush, Peter's god-daughter.

As she and the groom emerged hand-in-hand after the ceremony to pose for photographs with senior members of the Royal Family, including the Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip. Absent from the Royal family picture, however, were two potential brides to be: Prince Harry's girlfriend Chelsy Davy and Prince William's girlfriend Kate Middleton, who stayed out of the limelight to ensure that their presence would not overshadow the bride and groom on their special day.

Following their ceremony the couple then hosted a reception and dance for their 300 guests, of which 70 friends and family of the bride travelled from Canada, at Frogmore House, Windsor, which has been lent to them by the Queen and Duke of Edinburgh. Mr Phillips is the first of the Queen's eight grandchildren to get married.

Mr. Phillips's mother, the Princess Royal and his father, Mark Phillips attended the wedding along with many senior members of the Royal family including the Prince of Wales, the Duchess of Cornwall, the Duke of York with his daughters Princess Beatrice and Eugenie, the Earl and Countess of Wessex and their daughter Lady Louise, The Duke and Duchess of Gloucester and the Duke of Kent.

Hello! magazine is reported to have paid $1 million, cover left, to get exclusive access to the couple, according to Royal-watcher Joe Little, managing editor of Majesty Magazine. The Hello! deal signed by the couple continued to receive attention on the Sunday following the wedding. The Mail on Sunday, in its four pages of coverage, reported that the couple signed the deal because Autumn's "Mum couldn't pay" the estimated $100,000 wedding bill, while Peter's mother, Princess Anne, "wouldn't."

From now on, the bride, who converted from Catholicism to marry into the Royal family, will be known as "Mrs Autumn Phillips." Kelly grew up in Pointe-Claire, Que., in the largely English-speaking West Island region of Montreal. After attending McGill University, she worked as a management consultant. She is now employed as a personal assistant to British broadcaster and television personality Michael Parkinson.

She and Phillips met at the Canadian Grand Prix in Montreal five years ago. They have been living in an apartment they own in west London for the past two years.

Kelly's twin brother Chris is a bricklayer. An older brother Kevin works as a chef. Her parents Kathleen, a hairdresser, and Brian, a retired electricity marketing executive, divorced when Kelly was eight. Both have since remarried.
LONDON, England, November 20, 1947 ... On her wedding day the 21-year-old PrincessElizabeth, as she was then known, wore a silk gown designed by Norman Hartnell embroidered with crystals and 10,000 seed pearls including a 13-feet train, when she exchanged vows with 26-year-old Lt. Philip Mountbatten at Westminster Abbey. The royal couple honeymooned in Malta where they were based on the Mediterranean island from 1949-1951, while Philip was stationed there as a Royal Naval officer.

The wedding was seen as a great morale booster for the British people, still recovering from the privations of World War II. In 1952, Elizabeth became queen on the death of her father, King George VI. The couple are currently celebrating their 60th wedding anniversary and enjoying a trip back to Malta.
