On July 8, 2017, King Carl Gustaf, Queen Silvia and Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden attended the wedding ceremony of Astrid Bernadotte and Filippo Bruti Liberati in Florence, Italy. Astrid Bernadotte is the daughter of count Bertil and countess Jill Bernadotte. Also, King Carl Gustaf is the godfather of Astrid Bernadotte. It was an exclusive wedding for 200 guests. The wedding took place at Ognissanti church in Florence. King Carl Gustaf, Queen Silvia and Crown Princess Victoria went out on the city tour on Florence after the wedding ceremony. |
Very strange looking head piece on the bride.
ReplyDeleteIt's a traditional Swedish crown that most parishes had for the brides that married in their particular church. Look at the crown worn by King Carl Gustaf's sister, Margaretha, at her wedding. Same design.
DeleteThanks for the information, I think we were many, who found this crown on the bride's head strange!
DeleteYes. I thought it was immature and disrespectful until I found this out. Thank you for sharing.
DeleteThe Crown was made for Estelle Bernadotte.
DeleteThat bridal headpiece....omg
ReplyDeleteHello Diane, how are you!
DeleteHi Diane! Great that you are back.
Delete🤗🤗🤗!!!
DeleteGood grief, the bride seems to wear a dime store coronet!
ReplyDeleteIt would be nice to see Victoria's gown
ReplyDeleteShe has worn this gown before because I have a pic of her wearing it in my files, but don't know how to post it on here.
DeleteTo further clarify she wore this gown to the pre-wedding party of Carl Philip and Sofia.
DeleteIt looked familiar so I googled it. I think it's the one she wore to the pre wedding party for her brother.
DeleteThat's true. Her summerdress looks lovely. Silvias dress is great!
DeleteNow we see it. Thanks for the update!
DeleteI also would like to see Victoria's gown. What we can see looks lovely. Her hair looks great.
ReplyDeleteThe bride's headpiece may be traditional but it looks like something I've picked up at the dollar store for my granddaughters for dress-up!
Oh dear... But Queen Silvia looks good in her festive colour. That's all.
ReplyDeleteThe gown Victoria is wearing is one she has worn before. She wore it to the pre-wedding dinner of Carl Philip and Sofia. It is a Jenny Packham dress.
ReplyDeleteThe coronet is a traditional Swedish bridal crown.
ReplyDeleteQueen Silvia looks wonderful! Beautiful hair, town and jewellery. I don't like this tiara Victoria is wearing and her hair isnt her best. The dress is nice though.
ReplyDeleteVictoria looks lovely from what we can see, her hair and makeup, the tiara an interesting and nice match to her beautiful gown.
ReplyDeleteCan't say the brides ensemble does much for me. I don't particularly like her gown, the object on her head and her hair doesn't look as though it has even been brushed.
Beautiful wedding. Queen Silvia looks amazing. What an incredible dress. And she wears it so well!
ReplyDeleteThe bride seems 'meh' to me. From other comments I understand that the headpiece is traditional. That's the only thing that makes it acceptable. Still underwhelmed by the outfit anyway.
