Prince Henry of Wales aka Prince Harry, sixth in line to the British throne and Meghan Markle, culminated their relationship into marriage in presence of Queen Elizabeth II, the royal family and 600 guests on May 19 at St. George's Chapel in Windsor Castle, England. The couple, which stands for all things positive, sealed their wedding vows with a kiss outside the Chapel.

The newlyweds, now the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, released three official photographs from their wedding, which were shared by the Kensington Palace on Instagram. The traditional photoshoot saw Meghan and Harry pose with the Queen, bride's mother Doria Ragland and other royalty for a family portrait in one picture while another one was taken with the bridal party - the page boys and bridesmaids inclusive of royal kids Prince George and Princess Charlotte.

Taking a moment to bask in the beauty of Meghan's beautiful bridal couture - a dress by British designer Clare Waight Keller by Givenchy's. Her 16-foot-long veil was held in place by a diamond bandeau tiara lent to her by the Queen. Harry, flanked by his brother and best man Prince William, was dressed in the frockcoat uniform of the Blues and Royals.

In a departure from tradition, Meghan walked much of the way up the aisle unchaperoned. Markle did not promise to "obey" her husband, while Harry broke with royal tradition by choosing to wear a wedding ring.

Post the royal wedding, the Queen hosted a lunchtime reception to celebrate her grandson's wedding with the former actress. All 600 guests were invited to a luncheon at St. George's Hall, hosted by Her Majesty. A second reception was held later, hosted by Prince Charles of Wales, and was attended by the couple's close friends and family.
