The flower meanings in the bouquet are: * Lily of the valley – Return of happiness * Sweet william – Gallantry * Hyacinth – Constancy of love * Ivy – Fidelity; marriage; wedded love; friendship; affection * Myrtle – The emblem of marriage; love
As tradition dictates, the bouquet contained stems from a myrtle planted at Osborne House, Isle of Wight, by Queen Victoria in 1845, and a sprig from a plant grown from the myrtle used in The Queen’s wedding bouquet of 1947.

Kate really did choose seasonal flowers----Lily of the valley (Convallaria majalis) is generally only available in the UK in April and May. Sweet William (Dianthus barbatus) is available generally from April to June. Hyacinths (Hyacinthus orientalis) are more readily available – normally from November to May.
The ivy and lily of the valley hair wreaths worn by the younger bridesmaids were influenced by the bride’s mother’s own headdress at her wedding in 1981.And the bouquets held by the bridesmaids replicated the flowers used in Kate’s bouquet, incorporating lily of the valley, sweet william and hyacinth.
Hmmmm......there’s problems afoot-—before the ceremony, Harry went up to the three and chatted with them-—the one on the right, in beige, dimpled up and gave Harry a 100 watt smile.
Chelsy’s not gonna like that.
That Chelsy Davy looks rough! What in the world is wrong with this young woman. She looks like she’s hard, rough, corsed, I don’t know....something just doesn’t look right with her. Just IMHO.
Slughhhh... you finish. Yuck.
Holy cow.. she looks coarse, harsh.
Dont know anything about her however & I guess we shouldn’t judge a book by cover? There are a lot of gorgeous woman who most of us would NOT want to see with Harry
