Meghan Markle rocked not one, but two dresses on her wedding day!
All eyes were on the blushing bride as she made her way into Windsor Castle on Saturday afternoon, wearing a gorgeous Givenchy wedding dress. It was designed by Clare Waight Keller and featured a hand-embroidered 16.5-foot silk tulle veil with flowers representing all 53 countries of the Commonwealth. Wow!

The gown was a perfect choice for Markle, as it kept with tradition but was not a classic fairytale princess dress. It was made for a woman, by a woman, to empower a woman. All of those sentiments are fitting for the female activist, who is now Prince Harry’s wife. The white gown may not look like a typical princess dress but Markle looked every bit the fairytale bride, who was happily marrying her Prince.
While the now Duchess of Susse, had the most amazing wedding dress for the ceremony, it was not quite what she needed for the reception. Markle did a quick outfit change before she and her husband appeared at their wedding reception. Her second dress was every bit as stunning as the one she wore earlier in the day.
Omg how stunning does Meghan look on the way to the wedding reception 😍 prefer this dress to the actual wedding dress! #RoyalWedding #MeghanMarkle pic.twitter.com/zsZvHx4JuQ

The lily white high-neck gown was designed by the famous Stella McCartney, who is also part of Givenchy. Markle accessorized the dress with a pair of satin Aquazzura heels that had the soles painted baby blue. She also wore a blue ring that reportedly belonged to Princess Diana, as another way to honor her husband’s late mother. The wedding reception dress gave off a very "Carolyn Bessette" vibe. It is similar to the one Bessette wore when she married John F. Kennedy Jr.
Regardless of the choice in dresses, Meghan Markle was stunning on her big day. The former actress has been rocking her new royal style since getting engaged to Prince Harry last fall. But her wedding day showed the world, Markle has got this fashion, elegance, and style thing down. She is definitely one to watch now that she is officially a part of the Royal Family.
