If you were among the many who slept through the royal wedding festivities, don’t feel bad, I slept through it also but caught the replay yesterday.

The wedding was like a fairy tale and everything was perfectly executed. Meghan Markle’s African heritage was celebrated and the ceremony was beautiful.

Prince Harry & Meghan Markle’s official wedding portraits have also been released.

“The Duke and Duchess of Sussex would like to thank everyone who took part in the celebrations of their wedding on Saturday. They feel so lucky to have been able to share their day with all those gathered in Windsor and also all those who watched the wedding on television across the U.K., Commonwealth, and around the world.”

“Their Royal Highnesses are delighted with these official portraits taken by Alexi Lubomirski and are happy to be able to share them today. They would also like to say thank you for all of the generous messages of support they have received.”

The bride and groom pose for a romantic black-and-white photo above which was taken just moments after they tied the knot. The love and happiness they felt on the day is evident on their smiling faces.

Harry and Meghan also shared a photo alongside their adorable page boys and bridesmaids.

Led by the couple’s niece and nephew, Prince George and Princess Charlotte, the eight other children in the photo include several of Harry and Meghan’s godchildren and children of their friends: Florence van Cutsem, 3; Remi Litt, 6 and her sister Rylan, 7; Ivy Mulroney, 4; Zalie Warren, 2; Jasper Dyer, 6; and twins Brian and John Mulroney, 7.
