It’s official – Prince William and Kate Middleton are now Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. A true fairy tale romance, the royal couple said their “I ‘dos” this morning as the world looked on.

William dressed in his military garb and Kate shined in a show-stopping Alexander McQueen gown designed by Sarah Burton. The classic long-sleeve gown featured an elegant lace appliqué bodice and a regal 9ft train. The dress was made with individual flowers hand-cut from lace and hand-engineered onto ivory silk tulle.

The bride was heavily involved in designing the dress – working closely with the designer to ensure it would be a combination of both the traditional and the modern, yet in keeping with the Alexander McQueen vision and attention to detail.

Her elbow-length veil was made of layers of soft, ivory silk tulle with a trim of hand-embroidered flowers. Her something borrowed was a diamond ‘Halo’ tiara by Cartier – lent to her by the Queen. The couple couldn’t look more royal if they tried!

The bridal party included Prince Harry as his brother’s best man and Pippa Middleton as one of Kate’s bridesmaids.

They exchanged vows at Westminster Abby in London, the same place William’s grandmother Queen Elizabeth wed in 1947.
