Princess Eugenie's "Something Blue" Was So Small, We Bet You Missed It

Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank are officially married [1]! The couple wed at St. George's Chapel in Windsor Castle on Oct. 12, surrounded by all their family and friends [2]. For the occasion, Eugenie wore a beautiful wedding dress [3], which was designed by Peter Pilotto [4], and had elegant hair and makeup to match [5]. While the wedding may have come and gone, we're still obsessing over the details, including Princess Eugenie's "something blue", which was blue thistle flowers nestled in her bouquet [6]. The thistle has a special meaning for the couple, representing their fondness for Balmoral.

Although the young royals are steering away from protocol [7], they're also sticking to and valuing a few chosen traditions, including the bride's "something blue." Meghan Markle [8], for example, found not one but two ways to incorporate this custom into her nuptials in May. She wore a baby-blue, square Asprey gemstone [9] as the couple drove off to their evening reception, and she later revealed that she had a piece of blue fabric stitched into her veil [10], which came from the dress she wore on her and Prince Harry's first date. Talk about meaningful!
