Lady Charlotte Wellesley

OH HOW I LOVE THIS GOWN!

If I were getting married for the first time, and had seen this dress….

This.

GOWN!

It’s nothing less than perfection.

Lady Charlotte Wellesley, the descendent of both Queen Victoria (on her mother’s side) and the Duke of Wellington (who defeated Napoleon at the Battle of Waterloo in 1815, on her father’s side), married financier and philanthropist Alejandro Santo Domingo on Saturday, May 28, in Illora, Spain.

She wore this perfect, in my opinion, off-the-shoulder Emilia Wickstead gown with a flowing cathedral veil in a Swiss dot pattern. The gown featured long sleeves and a full skirt and was paired with an extralong embellished veil. Elegant and regal without being over the top.

Especially a royal wedding. I bet more than one lady at the event had something to say about this.
