In case you've been living under a rock, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are officially husband and wife [1]! The couple tied the knot on Saturday, and even though our invite got lost in the mail, details about Harry's reception speech [2] have begun trickling in, and they'll have you swooning. According to Us Weekly, Harry said, "Meghan has handled things with grace and dignity" and he can't wait for them to be a team. The prince also gave Meghan's mum [3], Doria Ragland, a sweet shout-out, calling her "one in a million" and thanking her for giving him "permission to marry Meghan."

But that's not all! According to ET, Harry honoured his late mum [5], Princess Diana, with a "tearful speech [6]" about his "mother missing from the festivities." Harry even reportedly asked his guests if anyone could play the piano, to which Elton John happily obliged [7] and performed "The Circle of Life," "Tiny Dancer," "Our Song," and "I'm Still Standing." In case you're still not over Harry and Meghan's big day, relive the best moments from their fairy-tale wedding [8].
