George & Charlotte Feature in Princess Eugenie's Wedding Portraits!
As newlyweds Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank enjoy the second day of their wedding celebrations at the Yorks' home, the Royal Lodge in Windsor, the couple selected four official photos from the day taken by British fashion and portrait photographer Alex Bramall in the White Drawing Room at Windsor Castle. Prince George and Princess Charlotte joined their fellow page boys and bridesmaids for images taken after the ceremony.
The wedding marked one of only a few public occasions we've seen Prince Philip attend recently. There was much speculation as to whether or not he would attend. Not only was he by the Queen's side to support his granddaughter, he buried the hatchet and posed beside Sarah, Duchess of York for the official photos. Since Andrew and Sarah's divorce, it is well known Philip has been at pains to avoid his former daughter-in-law. Weddings bring people together, and yesterday the family was firmly focused on making the day special for Eugenie and Jack.
Below a closer look at the Cambirdge children. In the first photo, the children are all looking a bit tired (Mia Tindall's expression is priceless). The second photo features smiles all round; George is in excellent spirits and Charlotte looks cute as a button with her feet crossed.
In the third photo, the couple are pictured in the Scottish State Coach upon its return to Windsor Castle following the Carriage Procession.
And last but not least, a photo of the newlyweds taken at the Royal Lodge ahead of the evening reception offers a look at the bride in her second wedding dress. The blush silk gown was created by American designer Zac Posen, who was a guest at the wedding. Mr Posen was inspired by the beauty of Windsor and the surrounding countryside. The choice of colour reflects the blush of an English rose. Mr Posen also took inspiration from the White Rose of York. The pin-tucked pliss� is cut on the bias and mixed with signature drapes. The White Rose of York is subtlety embroidered on both the shoulder and back which hold together the cape. The silk for the gown comes from Biddle Sawyer Silk. The timeless gown has a very 'Old Hollywood' feel to it.

Eugenie wore the emerald and diamond earrings from the ceremony; they were a gift from the groom and perfectly complemented the Greville Kokoshnik Tiara.
The sparkling tiara wasn't the only loan from Her Majesty. For her evening look, the Queen provided Eugenie with a hair slide belonging to Her Majesty. Queen Victoria�s Wheat-Ear Brooches were originally commissioned by William IV in 1830 for Queen Adelaide. They were passed down to Queen Victoria in 1837, and eventually to the Queen in 1952. Her Majesty has worn them as both hair slides and brooches.
Alex Bramall previously photographed Princess Eugenie for Harper�s Bazaar US in 2016. Eugenie chose the Erdem floral dress from the shoot for the engagement announcement. In 2014, he set up his own studio. Since that time his work has been published internationally in titles such as Vogue, Vogue Russia, Vanity Fair, Vanity Fair Spain and Mexico, Harper�s Bazaar US, Harper�s Bazaar UK and Porter Magazine. Mr Bramall said: "It is an honour and a privilege to be invited to photograph Princess Eugenie and Jack on this most special of days. I look forward with great excitement to capturing this significant occasion and wish them both a happy future together."
As mentioned earlier in the post, the second day of celebrations are continuing today. The Telegraph reports:
In keeping with royal tradition, Eugenie's bouquet was placed on the Grave of the Unknown Warrior in Westminster Abbey. This is a tradition which was begun by HM Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother at her marriage to King George VI in memory of her brother Fergus who was killed in 1915 at the Battle of Loos during the First World War. The bouquet was designed by Patrice van Helden Oakes and comprises Lily of the Valley, Stephanotis pips, hints of baby blue thistles, white spray roses, trailing ivy and myrtle.

As mentioned earlier in the post, the second day of celebrations are continuing today. The Telegraph reports:
'The Princess, who is named after Victoria�s granddaughter, Victoria Eugenie of Battenberg, insisted on a Victoriana theme for Saturday's festival-inspired second afternoon of celebrations, complete with Ferris wheel and coconut shy. Food trucks served everything from pulled pork sliders to Cornish fish and chips, rounded off with cup cakes, ice cream and candyfloss as guests partied from 2pm to 2am.
The family�s gardener described it as �one hell of a party�. Bloody Marys were served to help guests recover from the night before, where Robbie Williams gave an impromptu performance.'
In keeping with royal tradition, Eugenie's bouquet was placed on the Grave of the Unknown Warrior in Westminster Abbey. This is a tradition which was begun by HM Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother at her marriage to King George VI in memory of her brother Fergus who was killed in 1915 at the Battle of Loos during the First World War.
