The couple tied the knot in a spectacular wedding at the White Palace in Belgrade, Serbia, with a host of European royals in attendance.

Her hair was styled into an elegant low chignon and decorated with pearls. The graphic designer accessorised with emerald diamond drop earrings, a matching pendant necklace and her new wedding band.

She was accompanied down the aisle by the groom's older brother, Prince Peter. Queen Sofia of Spain was another notable royal in the crowd, as was the groom's younger twin brother Prince Alexander, and their parents Crown Prince Alexander of Yugoslavia and Princess Maria.

Guests were treated to traditional dance performances, live music and speeches, and gathered around to watch Philip and Danica cut their six-tiered wedding cake.
