Guilty Pleasure

THE DUCHESS OF SUSSEX

Now that I am finally off my high from the Royal Wedding – it is time for a Jnolaism recap!

So let us start with the guest… who knew that all these A-list stars would come out for Meghan and Harry?? I sure as heck did not! Oprah, Serena Williams, Idris Elba, Posh & Becks… I mean the list goes onnnnnnn. Seeing the entire cast of Suits show up was also a plus because this is probably the last time Meghan will ever see these people!

Okay moving on to Meghans beautiful mama, Doria Ragland. From the first picture with Meghan in the car, to her sitting in the pew awaiting the arrival of her daughter walking down the aisle. The emotion on her face just made me want to hug her and never let go. You can see how overjoyed she is for Meghan and Harry!

On to the main event (besides the wedding) – THE DRESS, Meghan Markle stepped out in custom made Givenchy all white off the shoulder gown. This dress got a lot of flack for being plain and conservative – while also not tailored correctly. Here is my opinion, Meghan does not seem like a show off type of girl (she has also been married before) – this dress was meant to be what it was. JUST A DRESS. This was the wedding of the century, a black American divorced actress married a Prince. Knowing (because I do very well) Meghan wanted you to focus on the details of the wedding that made it as a newscaster said ‘the most human royal wedding”. Would I wear this dress, no but I am also not marrying a Prince. Meghan looked beautiful and HAPPY – so at the end of the day she wins and all you trolls ( KATY PERRY) you lose!

Last but not least – the ceremony. I found it to be EXACTLY what was needed, these were two people with two different backgrounds becoming one. From the Bishop Currys powerful sermon , to the choir singing ‘Stand By Me” and then the cellist – everything was beautiful and gave you hope. This wedding brought the Royal Family into the 21st century – Meghan has brought it out of the dark ages with just ONE DAY.

Waking up early on Saturday watching along with the rest of the world – it was a pleasure to watch two people in love.
