Men, men, manly men, let's do our regular thing and appreciate them in their dashing morning suits and uniforms! Part 1, the men at the religious wedding:
- Andrea Casiraghi, oldest son of Princess Caroline. Anybody know what Andrea gets up to these days? I know as of last year he was working/interning at the Qatari Embassy in France.
- Pierre Casiraghi, second son of Princess Caroline. I don't know what he does either. I think he lives in Italy.
- Alex Dellal, boyfriend of Charlotte Casiraghi, and gallery owner in London.
- Louis Ducruet, son of Princess Stephanie and the bodyguard.
- Prince Christian of Hanover, and his older brother...
- Prince Ernst August (VI) of Hanover, sons of Caroline's estranged husband Ernst August (V). Nice that her stepsons came out in support, even though one imagines their father wasn't welcome!
- King Carl XVI Gustaf of Sweden, grumpy-looking as ever. Grand Duchess Maria Teresa blew him a kiss when he came to his seat. Or maybe that was for Silvia...yeah, that seems more likely.
- Prince Carl Philip of Sweden, fresh off a Mediterranean vacation with his parents the King and Queen and his girlfriend, the pin-up.
- Prince Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands, well color-coordinated to his wife, Princess Máxima.
- The Earl of Wessex, representing Queen Elizabeth.
- King Albert II of the Belgians. His sword slipped and bumped wife Queen Paola at one point, and he got a look, I'm telling you. Oh, the perils of the fancy uniform.
- Prince Philippe of Belgium, looking rather out of place in blue at this black and white uniform party.
- Grand Duke Henri of Luxembourg, escorting the lovely kiss-blowing Maria Teresa.
- The Hereditary Grand Duke of Luxembourg. Those poor Lux boys, I think they had it worst for uniform hotness. (Hotness as in overheating, not as in hawtness. That's a different story.)
- Crown Prince Haakon of Norway. I've seen him in a white uniform before, I wonder why he didn't bring that one along? I don't know the rules.
- Crown Prince Frederik of Denmark. We should probably just be glad he didn't opt for red trousers to round the look out.
- Prince Joachim of Denmark. Where are the uniforms, Danish boys?
- Prince Laurent of Belgium. Yes, he fell down on the red carpet. Must resist the urge to laugh...
- Prince Daniel of Sweden, gamely sporting a baby blue tie to match his wife's blue outfit.
- The Hereditary Prince of Liechtenstein. Alois acts as regent of Liechtenstein for his father Prince Hans-Adam II.
- Prince Michael of Kent, sort of a surprise attendee.
- Prince Faisal bin Al-Hussein of Jordan, who was divorced after 20 years of marriage and four kids in 2008 and remarried last year.
- The Duke of Braganza. Duarte Pio is a claimant to the throne of Portugal.
- The Duke of Anjou. Louis Alphonse is a claimant to the throne of France.
- The Count of Paris, a.k.a. Prince Henri of Orléans, a.k.a the Duke of France, is also a claimant to the French throne. So...that's awkward.
- The Duke of Castro. Prince Carlo is one of two claimants to the head of the House of Bourbon Two-Sicilies, and is married to everybody's favorite over the top Barbie princess, Camilla.
- The Prince of Naples. Vittorio Emanuele is a claimant to the head of the House of Savoy. At a dinner the night before Felipe and Letizia's wedding, he punched his rival for that title (his cousin Amedeo, who had to be caught from falling over by poor Queen Anne-Marie of Greece). He should probably just be glad he got another royal wedding invitation.
- The Prince of Venice and Piedmont. Emanuele Filiberto is Vittorio Emanuele's son, lucky him.
- The Hereditary Prince of Baden, whose father, the Margrave of Baden and the nephew of the Duke of Edinburgh, was also present.
- Prince Georg Friederich of Prussia is the head of the house of Hohenzollern. His marriage to Princess Sophie of Isenburg in August of this year will also be a celebration of 950 years of Hohenzollern.
- Prince Leopold of Bavaria, who used to be a champion race car driver.
- Crown Prince Alexander of Serbia is one of Queen Elizabeth's godchildren, and was christened in Westminster Abbey.
- Prince Radu of Romania is married to Crown Princess Margarita.
- Grand Duke George Mikhailovich of Russia is the son of that flamboyant Grand Duchess Maria Vladimirovna that we've all gotten to know and love in the past few days.
