1. Their middle daughter really looks like her mother!

2. Stunning dress! One of my all time faves.

3. # 2 is so charming and sweet. Max was born to be a queen.

4. Nelson Mandela and Kofi Annan (UN Secretary General) at the back (pic 4)

5. Gorgeous! That tiara is stunning.

6. Now I’m wondering why other reigning monarchs go to the weddings of foreign royals, but not the British monarch. 🤔 Did HM Queen Elizabeth II ever attend the wedding of a foreign house?

7. I love her dress. It was about the same time as Mary, Mathilde, and Victoria’s weddings, and they all wore similarish necklines and fabrics. So beautiful!

8. Back then I was active on a Usenet group for royal gossip. The group was very snobby and critical of Maxima (even more so of Mette-Marit). So I started out with a not so favorable impression. On the Reddit royal groups, I soon learned that she is very popular. In these photos, she looks like such a ray of sunshine. I also like her simple gown. Guess those Usenet folks were haters. 🙂

9. Wow does Alexia look like her mom. Love how they look at each other in slide 7 🥺
