From the moment the Duchess walked down the aisle by herself to the couple’s first kiss as husband and wife, a number of moments from Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s royal wedding on May 19, 2018, will live on in our memories forever.

However, very little is known about their wedding reception at Windsor’s Frogmore Hall, and up until this point, hardly any pictures from the festivities have been made public. The couple releases a number of candid pictures, including one in which they are partying with people like Zara and Mike Tindall on their wedding day, in the first trailer for their explosive new Netflix series, Harry & Meghan.
The newlyweds held hands, smiled at each other, and spun among 200 of their loved ones on the dance floor.
After arriving at the ceremony in his uniform, Harry changed into a dapper tux and looked sharp. Meghan, meanwhile, had switched from her Givenchy bateau neck dress by Clare Waight Keller to a stunning Stella McCartney halterneck dress, making it her second outfit of the day.
With an open back and a shoulder-baring neckline, Meghan’s more daring second wedding gown undoubtedly exposed more skin than was deemed appropriate at her ceremony at St. George’s Chapel at Windsor Castle.
The evening’s events included dancing, an emotional speech from Harry’s father, now-King Charles, and an Elton John performance.
The authors of Finding Freedom noted that during the poignant speech, Charles “opened up about how moving it was to see his younger son become a husband,” and they said the declaration “elicited tears from the crowd.”
Elton then inspired an impromptu sing-along in front of royal visitors like Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie and A-listers like David and Victoria Beckham, which brightened the reception mood.
In-depth coverage of Meghan and Harry’s enduring love story will be provided in the shocking new documentary, which is scheduled to air the following week. In 2020, the couple and Netflix agreed to a multi-year, $100 million deal.
