I just hope she has someone giving her honest opinions so the dress will look nice. She should make an account here. We'll tell her. I like that idea.

I'm really curious what her dress will look like. I think a mermaid would be stunning on her, but that is pretty far from the usual royal wedding garb. I can't see her wearing anything similar to what Kate wore. The dress she wore for Suits was not super flattering to her figure. I wonder if a slimmer A line would look good? It’s still modest but would kind of go with an understated style. I also checked- Zara’s gown had sort of cap sleeves? So maybe something like that rather than long sleeves like Kate. Or else long sheer sleeves like her dress in their engagement photos? I feel that Meghan has not been really following Royal rules so far so why start with her wedding dress

She hasn't broken any rules or done anything she shouldn't.

I didn't say she broke them I said she hasn't followed them to everyone stating that if she chose a mermaid style dress the Royals wouldn't like it

We pretty much need a whole thread of important people doing ridiculous dances. This was a great way to start my Monday. Motion seconded.

I didn't say she broke them I said she hasn't followed them to everyone stating that if she chose a mermaid style dress the Royals wouldn't like it The dress should fit the venue and occasion which I'm sure it will. That's the protocol. I guess it might be possible to make a mermaid style fit but you're right it would probably be difficult. I'm excited to see what she picks.

Not ridiculous but adorable for sure. I didn't even notice she was in the background of that video of Will! That's what's truly saving her. He took one for the team.

I was on a work trip during William and Kate's wedding. I had to work really late the night before, but I had the next day off (and late check out), so I got to watch in bed early that morning with champagne that I had bought the night before. All alone. It was glorious. This has nothing to do with anything, except I was reminiscing and wondering if anyone will notice if I break away to watch this wedding in a hotel room by myself. I'm also still in my Camilla phase with Meghan, though. I shipped W&K a bit, just because he was an old crush, and I had admired the way he handled himself when his mom died. I always considered Harry a baby. (But I guess not... I'm younger than Meghan.) /dear diary My friend from London, who was about to get married and quite obsessed with all things Royal (we wore white bridesmaids dresses), was in town (the US) visiting during the Royal wedding. We bought tickets to a quirky hotel that was having a viewing party that started at like 4 am and they were serving high tea. It was a lot of fun. No plans to repeat that this time, though.

I get she doesn't have to follow the rules yet but you would think she would start so she can get on the queens good side. Just saying

I don't think she'll wear a mermaid gown for the wedding. She eschews anything that shows off her figure or fits properly, and that would be way more scandalous than the persona she's trying to create.
ETA: I just realized I pulled out an SAT word without thinking about it... I'm not sure if I'm proud or embarrassed.

My nearest big city is doing a viewing party with brunch. I’d love to go but my kid will be less than a month old and I’m sure I will not want to get up early enough to drive the hour + to get there.

I follow this IG account. She looks so young in the left pic. I also love how she didn't hide her left-over bump...and didn't she walk out the same day after birth? 😫

I do not have confidence in Meghan's wedding day look. I hope I'm wrong. Either way I'm excited to see the dress

I believe Kate left the hospital the same day as delivery with both kids. I'm sure she has nurses at her house to check on her health as well. I think Diana was the first to have a hospital vs home birth.

I would not risk a white dress so soon after giving birth. She’s very brave.
