Princess Eugenie's Happy Ever After

Its a magical day as the blissful bride ties the knot with her longtime love

- Sophie Neville

Ever since she was a little girl, Princess Eugenie often found herself in the shadows of her more senior royal relatives.

But all eyes were firmly on the stunning princess bride as she married her prince charming, Jack Brooksbank, in a moving ceremony on a decidedly blustery and chilly day at Windsor Castle.

While their magical October 12 wedding had all the pomp and pageantry expected from a royal ceremony, it was also brimming with emotion and intimacy – and not even the gale-force winds that threatened guests’ hats and hemlines could derail the joy of this momentous historic occasion.

“You look perfect,” the groom uttered as he laid eyes on his bride for the first time at the altar. They could barely contain their feelings as they pledged their love to one another eight years after falling head over heels on a Swiss ski slope.

Held at St George’s Chapel, the same beautiful location where Prince Harry and the Duchess of Sussex wed just five months earlier, Eugenie, 28, and Jack’s special day began soon after 9am.

As faithful well-wishers braved the weather to line the streets with their Union Jack flags, the first of the 850 invited guests began filtering into the venue, its entrance adorned with a stunning autumnal floral arch.
