We’re just short of halfway into 2017, but Pippa Middleton’s wedding to millionaire financier James Matthews has already been dubbed the society wedding of the year. The couple tied the knot at St Mark’s church in the village of Englefield, near Pippa’s parents’ house, and everyone who’s anyone in Britain attended the ceremony.

The public first fell in love with Pippa during sister Kate Middleton’s royal wedding in 2011. She was Kate’s maid of honor and almost stole the spotlight when she charmed the public. This time, the most famous bridesmaid finally got her own wedding of semi-royal proportions.

The 33-year-old bride was stunning in a custom-made Giles Deacon lace gown, which was a collaboration between the designer and Pippa.

The gown featured a classic high neck and an embroidered lace bodice with beautiful pearl detailing. Pippa also chose a long, sweeping veil to pair with her gown. She finished the bridal look with pearl drop earrings—the same pair she wore during Kate’s wedding.

The Duchess of Cambridge and her adorable toddlers were also present for the special day. The princess wore a beautiful dusty pink Alexander McQueen dress.
