7 royal-wedding mishaps you may not have known about

A representative from the royal jeweler House of Garrard told Marie Claire's Mehera Bonner in 2021 that Queen Elizabeth's hairdresser broke the Fringe Tiara she wore on her wedding day in 1947.

"On that day, they had it police escorted to the House of Garrard workshops," the House of Garrard representative said. "We fixed the tiara that morning, had it sent back to Queen Elizabeth, and then she got married in it. You don't expect the royals to have those sorts of mix-ups, but they do!"

King Charles' full name is "Charles Philip Arthur George." CBS News video shows that at the altar, Diana accidentally said "Philip Charles Arthur George."

Charles said "With this ring I thee wed, with my body I thee honor, and all my goods with thee I share," forgetting to repeat the word "worldly" after the archbishop.

Diana's wedding dress was designed by David and Elizabeth Emanuel, a husband-and-wife duo. The gown contained 10,000 pearls and mother-of-pearl sequins.

"'I remember whispering to David: 'Oh my God, it's creased,'" Elizabeth told the Daily Mail in 2017 of seeing Diana's wedding dress on the big day. "I thought: 'We've got to straighten out that dress.'"

In a 2015 article for the Daily Mail, bridesmaid Clementine Hambro wrote that she tripped over Diana's dress as the wedding party walked up to the balcony of Buckingham Palace.

"On the way, I slipped on the wooden floor and banged my head. Diana picked me up and comforted me and asked if I had bumped my bottom," she wrote.

ABC News reported that a horse in the Blues and Royals horse guard got spooked by the crowds, threw off its rider, and ran off during William and Kate's post-ceremony carriage ride. The rider and the horse were both unharmed.

Per Vanity Fair, in an interview for the 2018 Windsor Castle exhibit "A Royal Wedding: The Duke and Duchess of Sussex," Meghan revealed that Harry had planned to pick flowers for her wedding bouquet from their private garden at Kensington Palace, but was thwarted by a spring cold snap.

"We didn't have as many flowers in our little garden as we had hoped for because I think it snowed at Easter! That kind of ruined the whole thing!" Harry said.

The small bouquet was still significant in other ways. A statement from Kensington Palace shared that the bouquet included forget-me-nots, which were Diana's favorite flower.

"The couple specifically chose them to be included in Ms. Markle's bouquet to honor the memory of the late Princess on this special day," the statement read.
