The Duke and Duchess of Sussex:

Who can forget the first royal wedding of the year – when Prince Harry and Meghan tied the knot at St George's Chapel, Windsor, on 19 May? British royalty and Hollywood royalty came together for the couple's big day, with the likes of Oprah Winfrey, George and Amal Clooney, and Meghan's former Suits stars all in attendance. Of course, Meghan was every inch the beautiful bride in a bespoke Givenchy wedding dress by Clare Waight-Keller, complemented by a striking train embroidered with flowers to symbolise all of the countries in the Commonwealth.
