The wedding ceremony took place in St Moritz town hall, with the nearby Kulm St Moritz Hotel providing the backdrop for their reception. Dasha got married in a surprise wedding 24 hours earlier than had been expected, with the date being kept secret by guests and the couple. Celebrities from Hollywood and the world of fashion were present at the ceremony. |
| Princess Caroline of Hanover, Charlotte Casiraghi, Beatrice Borromeo, Princess Alexandra of Hanover, Princess Beatrice of York, Prince Pavlos, Princess Marie Chantal, Princess Olympia of Greece, Prince Ernst August of Hanover and his wife Princess Ekaterina attended the wedding ceremony held in St. Moritz, Switzerland. |
Russian oligarchs and aristocratic second-class riches show off their luxury. I'm sad this blog pays attention to these people. And as for fashion. Here we see that taste can not be bought for any money.
ReplyDeleteI'll use the words from Mitchell's novel "Gone with the Wind," when nanny said to Scarlett O'Hara: "They're mules in a horse harness."
You are absolutely right. I completely agree.
DeleteMoney, money, money, it's a rich mans' world....... as ABBA said.
DeleteLovely picture bella Bea with Alexandra!
ReplyDeleteJeez, they look so fake in picture 6
ReplyDeleteMy goodness. Dasha must be quite the VIP.
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed the brief glimpse of wedding reception finery; Beatrice Borromeo Casiraghi’s dress looks attractively festive. The bride’s winter white cloak lends a fairytale vibe to her look. Can’t say I like the silly faux-Russian party garb worn by some; it seems neither dignified nor respectful.
Including that worn by a Russian woman - just a guess but she might have said something to her husband if she found it disrespectful and "faux".

Dear G, people often disrespect or make light of their own heritage; this can be regarded in different ways depending on the circumstances. IMO the costumes worn by the group in the next-to-last photo look like “joke” caricatures of traditional Russian attire, and I stand by my opinion that it is a disrespectful look.
DeleteI like the wedding gown just beautiful. The Monaco Royals are looking good.I am a little off by the Greeks and Hanover Royals,oh well it is Russian night?. I wish we would seemore of the other guest's.
ReplyDeleteI cannot stand that pout displayed by Marie-Chantal and Olympia. Too posh to smile?
ReplyDeleteI agree that they look both fake and tasteless. Why go to all the high society events - only to pretend not to enjoy them?
Beatrice and Alexandra seem a lot more genuine.
The bride looks beautiful.
All in all, the useless rich
DeleteYes, freak show.
DeleteI agree: they both fancy themselves being very beautiful whereas especially MO looks rediculous most of the times and not too bright either......

Confusing dress code, what is Charlotte wearing?!
ReplyDeleteBeatrice always on fashion point.
Beatrice York was also there.
ReplyDeleteWho are these people? Clothes looks a bit op shopish;such fun.
ReplyDeleteI am asking the same: who are they, VIP persons ??
DeletePavlos,Marie-Chantal and Olympia are ex-royals, have no 'of Greece' titles, perhaps Pavlos has kept his Prince of Denmark ? Marie-Chantal has never been a princess. They were married decades after Greece became a republic!

I like Charlotte’s outfit for walking around the shops on a cold day. The shoes aren’t my favorite. Alexandra and Beatrice look great. I love the relationship Caroline’s kids and their spouses have with each other. The bride’s winter white coat is stunning.
ReplyDeleteWhat is going on with Christian’s hair? I dont know what to make of his wife’s or the Greek royals headpieces and hats. They remind me of the props one would find in a photo booth.

A step aside from fashion: The Niarchos family was one of the richest families of Greece already when Greece still was a monarchy (and near the royal family). Pavlos is related to the Windsors and the Danish royals. The Windsors of Britain are actually a side branch of the Hannovers - who in turn descend from the emperors of the medieval St. Empire. Even the princes of Monaco are related to the British royal family through QEQM. It seems that there was a great number of extended family.
ReplyDeleteMargot
Magnifique la robe de la mariée ; le marié est pas mal aussi !
ReplyDeleteMarie Chantal y familia parece estan en una fiesta de disfraces, horrible,
ReplyDeleteque mal gusto
Los disfrazados de rusos debe ser el cotillón!!también está Carolina de Monaco pero si hay 300 invitados ..solo vemos unos poquitos.
ReplyDeleteThe bride looks so elegant, the cape is divine. She is a beautiful lady.
ReplyDeleteGosh! No comments about folks not being Royal! The vacuous partying Casiraghi clan plus the Clown Prince, wife and bratty daughter! Exactly how can one be a Clown oops, Crown when there isn’t a kingdom or a thrown on which to ascend?
