A royal wedding is a marriage ceremony attended by royal family members. Senior royal family members' weddings are frequently regarded as significant state affairs and attract a lot of domestic and international attention.

Over the last centuries, the world has witnessed many unforgettable royal weddings that have been engraved in the memory of history. 

Queen Victoria And Prince Albert

According to Historic Royal Palaces, Prince Albert and Queen Victoria were wed on February 10, 1840, at the Chapel Royal at St. James's Palace. Queen Victoria fell in love with her cousin Prince Albert during their second meeting in October 1839. 

Victoria and her advisors believed it was crucial that every piece of her bridal attire be produced in Britain utilizing British resources. The 5.5-meter court train and the dress were both made from Spitalfields silk satin from London. The garlands of the young queen's headdress matched the orange blossom sprays that adorned the long silk train. Early in the 1800s, the tradition of wearing these flowers for weddings replaced the custom of wearing roses in Britain. 

The last Emperor and Empress of Iran

When the Iranian Shah, also known as Mohammad Reza Shah, got married to the young Farah Diba in 1959, there was joy in the Hall of Mirrors at Golestan Palace. The little princess attracted a lot of attention at her wedding when she wore a magnificent Yves Saint Laurent gown and the Noor-ol-Ain Diamond Tiara. She was known as the Young Queen of Iran and attracted the international press, Tatler reported. 

A banquet was held after the traditional Islamic nikkah ceremony as part of their wedding. The young queen met Mohammad Reza Shah Pahlavi in 1959 while she was studying architecture in Paris. The two eventually announced their engagement on December 1 of the same year and were married three weeks later.

Egyptian King Farouk and Queen Farida

In the 1930s, King Farouk of Egypt, when 17 years old, married Safinaz Zulficar, 16 years old, who would go on to become Queen Farida. In 1938, the two exchanged vows at Cairo's Abdeen Palace during a day filled with celebrations that included a parade of adorned floats.

The festivities carried on the day after the illustrious wedding ceremony, with troops passing by the palace and airplanes zipping overhead, according to Scoop Empire. 

Prince Charles and Diana Spencer

When Princess Diana got engaged to Prince Charles in 1981, she shot to international stardom. Princess Diana was adored and respected all over the world.  

Vogue reported that the wedding of Prince Charles and Princess Diana was held at St. Paul's Cathedral in London. Together with her father, Earl Spencer, Lady Diana departed Clarence House and rode in a glass coach to the main event. Princess Diana's royal marriage was quite distinctive, from the attire to the location itself. It was one of the rare royal nuptials that did not take place at the royal church at Westminster Abbey. 

Crown Prince Naruhito and Masako Owada

Masako Owada, a Japanese diplomat's daughter, first met the Prince Naruhito in 1986. He reportedly made three proposals, but she declined the first two because she didn't want to give up her job and normal life. She eventually agreed, though, and was added to the precedence list of the Japanese royal system as Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess of Japan, according to Vogue. 

King Abdullah II of Jordan & Queen Rania Al-Abdullah

King Abdullah II of Jordan and Queen Rania first met at a dinner party in 1992. The entire wedding ceremony, which took place in 1995 in Zahran Palace, attracted everyone there to see the momentous occasion.
