[Magdalen] Wedding?

[Eleanor Braun]

My favorites:
Seeing Harry wipe tears of joy away.
The bride was wonderful.
The PB rocked the socks off the Brits!
I loved the gospel singing -- and the cellist.  What a wonderful blend of
music.
The bride's mum looked very pleased.
Meghan sang God Save the Queen, even though she is still an American
citizen (soon to change).
Altogether a wonderful service for two wonderful people.
