I didn’t see but I think one of the mothers of the page boys/bridesmaids was in that colour - perhaps that was Jessica Mulroney? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah I think that's her. Wondering who got such a prime spot up front so makes sense. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

princess 1,711 Report post Posted May 19, 2018 Yeah, bad call on Kate's part to pick such a pale dress. Too close to white. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dixiedoodah 1,003 Report post Posted May 19, 2018 (edited) Some good shots of the guest outfits: https://www.vanityfair.com/style/photos/2018/05/royal-wedding-arrivals I just got home from kids tournament. Havent watched the wedding yet so just commenting on whats here. Lady Kitty Spencer Is my favorite. Dress fits perfectly and she looks great. Cressida.... was the other one there too (oh, I se her) ? Carey Mulligan not wearing a hat. I thought that was specified on the invite? Zara looks adorable, Pippa has an awful face (nothing new there) and poor Oprah. That dress was not flattering, ETA: Im starting to watch the tape. I apologize to Oprah. She looks lovely. Just a bad still photo. ETA (again) Finished. My absolute favorite was Zara Tindalls expression during the sermon by the presiding bishop. https://www.google.com/amp/s/heavy.com/news/2018/05/michael-curry-sermon-memes-gifs-tweets/amp/ My husband and I were laughing so hard Edited May 20, 2018 by dixiedoodah 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hoyaheel 1,874 Report post Posted May 20, 2018 Bishop Curry - North Carolinian, y'all! I loved the sermon and it didn't faze me at all, though in retrospect, I guess it wasn't at all what was expected, was it? Also, having attended a Jesuit university, loved the Teilhard de Chardin reference!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also, having attended a Jesuit university, loved the Teilhard de Chardin reference!! I thought great, and really didn’t find anything unusual about it, but all of my British friends were posting on FB about how he was too American and over the top. That’s why the looks on the faces of the royal family were making me laugh so hard. I’d like to invite them to a Pentecostal Church and let them see what over the top American preaching looks like. If they think the Episcopalians are too much (and I spent 5 years of my life working full time in an Episcopal Church) they ain’t seen nothing yet. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hoyaheel 1,874 Report post Posted May 20, 2018 I saw one comment that it was too repetitious. Duh. Preaching is an oral tradition and repetition is how you remember stuff and get your audience to remember the lessons you teach. Wow. Go back and listen (not read - listen!) to some of Dr. King's speeches and sermons. He uses repetition so powerfully!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
