Sparkling Royal Jewels From Around the World
Later today, Princess Alexandra of Luxembourg will marry Nicolas Bagory in a religious ceremony at the Saint Trophyme church in Bormes-les-Mimosas in the south of France. (The couple’s civil wedding took place in Luxembourg last weekend.) While we wait to see which family tiara Alexandra might wear with her wedding gown, let’s look back at some of the gorgeous brides who have worn Luxembourgish tiaras on their wedding days.
On Saturday, Princess Alexandra of Luxembourg glowed at the first of two ceremonies celebrating her marriage to Nicolas Bagory. There were some interesting royal jewels on display at the civil ceremony—some classic, and some a little more modern.
Seventy years ago this month, a future sovereign married a beautiful princess in a glamorous celebration that featured not one but two dazzling diamond wedding tiaras. But the royal wedding also came with a fair amount of drama, thanks to the complicated family of the princess bride.
