royal wedding round 2

This past weekend the world had another dose of the royal wedding with the nupitals of Prince Albert II of Monaco and his wife Charlene Wittstock. Prince Albert II was notoriously known as a playboy throughout his youth (fathering two children out of wedlock) and was frequently in the spot light because of his famous parents Prince Albert and the beautiful Grace Kelly. Albert has two sisters, Princess Caroline of Hanover and Princess Stephanie of Monao. Fun fact, when Grace Kelly was pregnant she had Hermes design her a purse which she used in order to cover the baby bump. The bag has forever been known as the "Kelly bag" and to order one from Hermes involves a waiting list that could last a decade! Prince Albert II has been on a variety of philanthropic organizations (particularly environmental causes) and world-wide committees, one of them the World Olympics. In sitting on the committee, he met South African Olympic swimmer Charlene. In 2006, she accompanied him to the Opening Ceremony of the Winter Olympics, where they were first seen together. The tall blond beauty has spent the past several years with the Prince and the couple tied the note over the weekend.

The Princess' dress was designed by Armani.

Here's a look at the event!
