PRINCE HARRY AND MEGHAN MARKLE - THE DUKE AND DUCHESS OF SUSSEX LEAVING THE WEDDING CHAPEL FOR THE FIRST TIME AS HUSBAND AND WIFE
Many thought her second dress of the day, designed by STELLA McCARTNEY stole the show. As the happy couple left for the after party, the strap-less crepe gown seemed to have been fitted to flatter Markle more than the actual ceremony gown. *The couple driving off in the electric, blue jaguar convertible concept car was just icing on the cake for this perfectly styled day!

The Ring - Of course, we saw the engagement ring months ago.. beautifully designed by Cleave and Company - favored jeweler of the Queen. Prince Harry incorporated diamonds from his mother, Princess Diana's jewelry to compliment a stone he bought in Botswana - the place he and Meghan first vacationed. The stone was ethically sourced.
Viewers around the world were charmed and moved by the touching sentiment throughout the ceremony. Namely the African American Pastor, Reverend Michael Curry that electrified the church and those in attendance. Curry is the current Bishop of the The Episcopal Church. The Kingdom Gospel Choir was also an integral part of the program. Their rendition of "Stand by Me" made an impression around the world.
