| I like that (supposedly) Prince Harry insisted on inviting Sarah | |
| Ferguson, who is on the outs with the royal family but he wanted | |
| her there. | |
| [/quote] | |
| Oh, did he? I thought I'd heard she wasn't going to be invited, | |
| and I was bummed. | |
| Because I can totally see her and Harry getting along. | |
| [/quote] | |
| She was invited to the ceremony, and possibly the first | |
| after-event, but not the evening reception. I believe. | |

| Oh my goodness, all the "cousins" and relatives coming out of | |
| the rafters would drive me insane. I'm glad that they had some | |
| control over something that was so utterly over the top and so | |
| many people clamoring to get into the event. | |
| It's amazing how many people like to try to make this all about | |
| them "We saw each other once at a family event in 2001!", oh | |
| please. | |

| Ha, oh my. If they hadn't wanted anyone there who was "too | |
| beautiful" then they wouldn't have invited George and Amal, | |
| among others! (not that I'm saying any of them are "better | |
| looking" than Meghan, just that this one cousin hardly stands | |
| out among the many beautiful people at that wedding!) | |

| I agree, sounds like a publicity release. the "most beautiful | |
| royal" title sounds like something her publicist dreamed up. | |
| [quote author=lowspark link=topic=103.msg683#msg683 | |
| date=1526391007] | |
| The story reads like it was written by "Lady Amelia" in order to | |
| promote herself as "most beautiful" and to further her career. | |
| [quote]A friend said: | |
| �Amelia is creating quite a name for herself with her modelling | |
| and Instagram posts. | |
| �Perhaps Harry just wanted to keep the family invited to a small | |
| number or maybe he didn�t want anyone upstaging the bride.� | |
| [/quote] | |
| :D :D Who is this "friend"? And the speculation that Harry | |
| didn't invite her so she wouldn't upstage the bride. How | |
| ridiculous. Again, sounds like it was written by Amelia herself! | |

| IRRC, she was named the most beautiful royal by the Tatler | |
| magazine, which seems to be a lot like Vanity Fair. | |

| and what a lesson jazzgirl205's story is about making | |
| assumptions. | |
| Her mom thought it would be impolite to invite them; they | |
| thought it impolite to be left out. | |
| A lesson for us to leave room for the possibility that other | |
| people might mean well | |
| [/quote] | |
| In my experience with weddings, no matter whom you invite or | |
| don't invite, there will be some who thought they should have | |
| been invited and weren't, and some who will scratch their heads | |
| upon receiving the invitation and think, "wonder why they | |
| invited me!" | |
| So best policy IMO is just to invite the people that the couple | |
| and family who they deem important want there and not fret too | |
| much about it. Particularly with a high profile event like this, | |
| you gotta know there's always going to be a lot of chatter about | |
| who got left off the guest list! | |

| I don't know any of my second or third cousins. On the Find a | |
| Grave web site, I was doing some research on my grandfather. I | |
| found the page for his mother, on which a person I've never | |
| heard of made entries. She identified herself as a great | |
| granddaughter, and I contacted her to give her some missing | |
| information, also identifying myself as a great granddaughter of | |
| the same lady. We've never met, and probably never will. It | |
| wouldn't be unusual or remarkable at all that I don't invite | |
| relatives I don't know to my wedding. Why would we expect that | |
| from England's royal family? | |
| [/quote] | |
| When I got married in the 80s, my mother would not invite any | |
| relatives that we had not seen in 10 years (especially since | |
| most lived within 2 hours drive). It just seemed to her to be | |
| begging for gifts. Well, there were a lot of relatives who were | |
| upset about not being invited (even though they probably would | |
| not have recognized me on the street). | |
| [/quote] | |
| Since it had been 10 yrs since your family has seen them, I | |
| can't but wonder what family events they had had that they | |
| didn't invite your family. | |

| It's common knowledge that if a piece of media gossip is | |
| attributed to an anonymous "friend", that's code for "we just | |
| made it up". I would place a very sizeable bet that the Sun | |
| (notorious British red-top rag that originally ran the story) | |
| wanted a Megan-and-Harry-wedding story that would justify some | |
| "hot girl" pics - the Sun is (in)famous for its reliably high | |
| quotient of girl pictures - and invented this lame snippet by | |
| way of excuse. | |
| FWIW, Harry has more than 20 third cousins just on the Queen's | |
| father's side of the family. He also has third cousins on his | |
| Spencer mother's side; a raft of Greek, Danish and Spanish royal | |
| third cousins on his grandfather Prince Philip's side; and | |
| third cousins on his Bowes-Lyon great-grandmother's (the Queen | |
| Mum's) side. Heaven knows how many he has in total, but they | |
| must be well into three figures. None of any of them was invited | |
| to the wedding, and I don't imagine they expected for a moment | |
| that they would be. | |
