Royal Weddings that Shaped History
The most recent British royal wedding, the union of Prince William and Kate Middleton, gathered a distinguished guest list of 1,900 attendees, including several high-profile individuals. Among these notable guests were footballer David Beckham and his fashion designer wife, Victoria Beckham, as well as the iconic Elton John. However, a particularly impressive photograph from the event showcased an ensemble of European royalty: the Queen of Spain and the Prince of Spain were in close proximity to the Princess of Sweden, with the former King of Greece standing behind them. Further in the background was the former King of Romania. These esteemed guests were invited due to their familial ties to Prince William's great-great-great grandmother, Queen Victoria.
