Meghan and Harry: The Royal Wedding in two minutes
Royal Wedding: A recap of the nuptials from the famous guests, the incredible fashion, the grand processions, the vows, and the speech by Bishop Michael Curry, to the incredible kiss between newlyweds Meghan Markle and Prince Harry.
WINDSOR, England – They did it! After a week dominated by Meghan Markle’s family drama, the “Suits” star exchanged vows with Prince Harry at St. George's Chapel at Windsor Castle in front of A-list guests including Oprah Winfrey and George Clooney, and, of course, the royal family.
As Meghan walked down the aisle, Prince Harry appeared to tear up. She joined him at the front of the chapel and their wedding ceremony began. At the altar, Harry told Meghan, "You look amazing."
When they read their wedding vows, Harry very seriously bellowed "I will," to laughs from the crowd. Meghan replied more calmly. She smiled at Harry as she recited her vows, locking eyes with her groom. They then exchanged rings, with Harry wearing a wedding ring - unlike his older brother Prince William.

When they were proclaimed husband and wife, and cheers from outside could be heard inside the chapel.
The American-actress-turned-royal wore a portrait neckline, long sleeve mermaid gown with a lengthy train by Clare Waight Keller for Givenchy. She paired it with a veil adorned with lace and a tiara, lent to her by Queen Elizabeth II and once owned by Queen Mary.
Earlier, Prince Harry arrived with his brother and best man Prince William. They beamed as they made the long walk into the chapel in their military uniforms. The groom waved to the crowd as he walked inside.
When Prince Harry and Meghan exited their wedding ceremony, the crowds outside erupted in loud screams and cheers to celebrate the newlyweds. The pair kissed on the steps of the chapel.

Meanwhile, Prince William's wife Kate arrived in a cream coat and hat and escorted the flower girls inside, just before Markle walked down the aisle.
The bride’s mother, Doria Ragland, watched the wedding in tears.

Earlier in the morning, many of the first guests to arrive were part of the approximately 1,200 members of the public that Markle and Prince Harry invited to witness their wedding, some of whom were invited due to their involvement in specific charities that are meaningful to the couple.
The chapel opened about two and a half hours before the wedding, and a few people began going inside the doors.
