Lady Gabriella Windsor married her late husband Thomas Kingston on 18 May 2019, returning to the same wedding venue Prince Harry and Meghan Markle and Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank chose the year before.
Guests including the late Queen and Princess Anne witnessed the ceremony at St George's Chapel, Windsor Castle before celebrating with the newlyweds at a reception at nearby Frogmore House. During the course of the day, the beautiful bride wore four bespoke outfits by Luisa Beccaria.
WATCH: Royal family in mourning as Lady Gabriella Kingston’s husband Tom dies suddenly In February 2024, after just five years of marriage, Buckingham Palace announced the financier died aged 45 and his family shared heartfelt words in his memory. His widow Gabriella, the daughter of Prince and Princess Michael of Kent, revealed in a statement: "Tom was an exceptional man who lit up the lives of all who knew him. His death has come as a great shock to the whole family and we ask you to respect our privacy as we mourn his passing."
In light of Mr Kingston's passing, we look back at the most precious moments from his fairytale wedding with Lady Gabriella.
The bride's arrival
The bride Lady Gabriella looked beautiful as she arrived at St. George's Chapel with her father Prince Michael of Kent wearing a stunning veil and tiara.
Borrowed bridal tiara
Fans' first glimpse of Gabriella's bridal outfit was her tiara, which she borrowed from her parents. The Kent City of London Fringe Tiara, which follows a classic diamond fringe style, was a wedding gift to Princess Marina from the City of London and was previously worn by Princess Alexandra on her big day.
First wedding dress
Lady Gabriella was breathtaking in her beautiful wedding gown with lace overlay, an elegant train and floral embroidery, designed by Luisa Beccaria.
Veil mishap
The bride's veil was made from layers of white tulle and embroidered flowers, but the 20-foot length almost caused a mishap on her big day. In an interview with HELLO!, Lady Gabriella explained: "Suddenly I could feel my tiara start to pull back and in those few unnerving moments I thought it would come crashing down with an almighty clunk.
"My little bridesmaids had accidentally wandered onto my very sheer tulle 20ft veil. I slowed down until they’d stepped off it, but then it happened again. Fortunately my hairdresser had pinned the tiara in place and it stood firm."
Intricate hair
From the front, Gabriella's blonde hair appeared to have been pulled back into an elegant half updo, but close-up photos taken from the back show the top section had been plaited and twisted into place, while the ends were in soft curls.
Bridal party
The young bridal party of six bridesmaids and three pageboys climb the steps to the chapel. Their outfits were also designed by Luisa Beccari, with the bridesmaids in cream dresses with flower rings in their hair. Pageboys wore cream shirts, knickerbockers and shoes by Papouelli.
The flowers
Lady Gabriella selected Paul Thomas to design the spectacular flower arrangements for the Service. Flowers in St George's Chapel included coral sunset peonies, coral and white roses, white hydrangea, white delphiniums, apricot stocks and seasonal flowers, as well as the creamy ivory 'Ella' rose by David Austin, which was named for the bride.
The cherry and apple blossom trees and shrubs standing outside the venue were provided by Hillier Nurseries while flowers at the reception were by John Plested.
